When we started working in tourism, almost 20 years ago, it was very difficult to find information about the countries of South America. Nowadays Internet helps a lot but plenty of time and patience is needed to find the right information. So we decided to keep these pages with general information about this geographic area. Links contained in "Useful Links" will take you to much more detailed and specific web sites. We hope this will be of your use.
