South America<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

South America is a continent of breathtaking contrasts \u2014 spanning 12 countries and home to around 435 million people across rainforests, deserts, mountains and coastlines that stretch from the Caribbean coast to the tip of Patagonia. From the pulsing energy of Buenos Aires and the samba rhythms of Rio de Janeiro, to the ancient Incan civilisations of the Andes and the raw wilderness of the Amazon, it is a destination that captures the imagination of adventurers, culture lovers and romantics alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Popular attractions include the otherworldly salt flats of Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia, the thundering Iguaz\u00fa Falls on the border of Argentina and Brazil, the ancient Incan citadel of Machu Picchu in Peru and the dramatic granite peaks of Torres del Paine National Park in Chilean Patagonia. Nature lovers should also add the Amazon rainforest and the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue overlooking Rio de Janeiro to their lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hub airports serving flights to South America include Gale\u00e3o International Airport (GIG) in Rio de Janeiro, Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE) in Buenos Aires and S\u00e3o Paulo\u2013Guarulhos International Airport (GRU) in S\u00e3o Paulo. Popular airlines flying from South Africa to South America include LATAM Airlines, South African Airways and KLM. Flights from Johannesburg to Rio de Janeiro involve at least one connection and take approximately 16 hours 30 minutes in total travel time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
