Travel to Central and South America   

A vacation in Central and South America is a guaranteed change of scenery, with remarkable historic sites and exuberant nature. This huge region of the world is an invitation to escape amid landscapes combining opulent jungles, imposing volcanoes, snowy mountains, and idyllic beaches. Take the measure of the greatness of pre-Columbian civilisations by admiring, for example, the remains of the ancient Mayan city of Tikal in Guatemala and the marvelous Inca city of Machu Picchu in Peru. Your vacation in Central and South America is also an excellent occasion to marvel at some of the world's most beautiful natural treasures. In Argentina, feel the power of the Iguazú Falls, horseback ride through the pampas and venture into the wilds of Patagonia to discover the Perito Moreno glacier and the mountains of Chile's Torres del Paine national park as a dramatic backdrop. In Peru, board a boat for a memorable trip on the Titicaca, the world's highest navigable lake. In Costa Rica and the Galapagos Islands, where nature reigns supreme, you'll find an incredible diversity of flora and fauna. A trip to Central and South America also means getting to know warm-hearted people who are committed to preserving their heritage. Discover the ancient charms of the major cities, soak up the authentic atmosphere of picturesque villages and venture off the beaten track to explore remote regions where the idea of time feels completely different.

Fine dining restaurants in Central and South America   

In our fine dining restaurants in Central and South America, the cuisine is thought to reflect the richness of local produce and traditions. A subtle fusion of Latin American and European influences, the delicious dishes prepared by our renowned chefs are based on the freshness and seasonality of the products grown in our organic kitchen gardens or selected from passionate farmers with whom they work closely. The lakes, mountains and forests are a constant source of inspiration for our menus, which combine local culinary heritage with contemporary techniques. From Argentinian asado to Peruvian ceviche, the cooking methods vary according to the produce in order to preserve its flavour and offer you an exceptional taste experience. Aromas and textures combine with natural spices and herbs to create colourful, fragrant plates that you can enjoy in sleek interiors, in the middle of a lush garden or on a terrace overlooking a shimmering lake, for example. To complete your meal, you can choose from some of the best South American wines, which draw their powerful bouquet from the fertile soils of this part of the continent.
