Your perfect South American honeymoon
Romantic, unique and unforgettable
If you’re dreaming of snow-capped Andes, rainforest waterfalls, colonial charm, and beaches that stretch for miles, South America offers the perfect setting for a romantic honeymoon. From sipping Malbec in Argentina’s vineyards to sailing through the Galápagos Islands, every experience feels alive with colour, culture, and natural beauty.
Where to go
Where to travel in South America depends on what inspires you most and the time of year you’d like to go. Don’t worry, we’ll guide you through the options and help plan the perfect route.
Here are a few of our favourite South American honeymoon ideas to get you started:
-
Argentina is ideal for couples who want variety, from tango nights and fine dining in Buenos Aires to romantic vineyard stays in Mendoza and glacier walks in Patagonia.
-
Brazil combines infectious energy with effortless romance. Think sunset cocktails on Ipanema Beach, the roar of Iguaçu Falls, and secluded boutique hideaways along the Bahian coast.
-
Chile offers extraordinary contrasts. Explore the Atacama Desert, sip wine in the Colchagua Valley, and end your trip with dramatic scenery and quiet luxury in Patagonia.
-
Peru blends adventure and culture beautifully. Hike to Machu Picchu, wander Cusco’s cobbled streets, and unwind with spa treatments overlooking the Sacred Valley.
-
Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands make a wonderful pairing. Discover colonial Quito before setting sail to see giant tortoises, sea lions, and pristine volcanic beaches.
-
Bolivia is for the truly adventurous. The mirror-like Uyuni Salt Flats and remote Andean landscapes are breathtakingly romantic in their stillness.
-
Colombia has an irresistible charm: colourful Cartagena, coffee country, and Caribbean islands all offer the perfect mix of culture and coast.
-
Uruguay is a hidden gem, known for chic beach towns like José Ignacio, peaceful countryside estancias, and exceptional food and wine.
-
The Falkland Islands offer something completely different: wild beauty, penguin colonies, and a real sense of escape for couples who want to disconnect.
Where to stay
We work with a handpicked collection of boutique hotels, elegant eco-lodges, and luxury retreats across South America. Whether you’re after jungle seclusion, vineyard sophistication, or a beachfront hideaway, we’ll recommend the perfect spot for you. We’ve personally visited many of our favourites, so you’ll benefit from insider advice on which rooms, views, or villas make a honeymoon truly special.
A little extra
What makes a South American honeymoon so memorable are the details. Imagine a private dinner beneath the stars in Patagonia, a scenic helicopter flight over Iguaçu Falls, or a picnic among Andean peaks. Perhaps you’d like a couple’s spa ritual in a vineyard, or a champagne toast as you sail past Galápagos sea cliffs... we’ll arrange those unforgettable touches that make it yours.
Tailor-made
At Far & Wild, every honeymoon is crafted from scratch. We’ll get to know what you both love – whether that’s wildlife, wine, adventure, or simply time to slow down – and design a journey that captures it all. With our in-depth experience and trusted local partners, you can relax knowing everything is taken care of, and start getting excited for the adventure ahead.
