Taking Luxury Honeymoons in the Land of Carnival

There are many countries and continents that claim, in the tourist brochures, to have it all - stunning scenery; a wealth of diverse landscapes; vibrant city life; relaxing sea and sand vacations; and epic history. Unlike most, South America really does, all of the above and more, with reliable weather and friendly inhabitants. South America holidays are perfect for any tourist at any time: they're particularly wonderful when taken as luxury honeymoons.

The thing about a honeymoon is this: you don't want it to be all resorts and relaxation, all the time. The ideal honeymoon is luxurious and easy – but full of adventure too. This is, after all, theoretically the one trip of a lifetime – never to be repeated and never to be bettered. That's a pretty tall order for most destinations (which tend to be able to deliver some, but not all, of the elements one would like) – but not for South America.

South America holidays (and the luxury honeymoons they can be) are as intensive or as relaxing as the holidaymakers taking them want them to be. Honeymooners can choose from a riot of colourful countries, either picking one to make their whole honeymoon in, or choosing from several to tailor make a bespoke honeymoon adventure into the heart of some of the most beautiful places on earth - Argentinian beaches; Brazilian cities; Amazonian rainforest; even the natural beauty of the Galapagos Islands, which can only be accessed by chartering incredible luxury yachts. Taking South America holidays for luxury honeymoons offers this sort of experience all over – five star, super attentive accommodation and staff, next to some of the most rugged and beautiful places on earth.

The hardier honeymooners may wish to get off the beaten track a little – leave the resorts behind for a few days and see some stuff that very few people ever get to witness. Trekking in the Amazon, or taking a boat trip down the legendary river, are two ways to do just that. Or maybe a trail up to the awe inspiring Morena Glacier – a piece of geologic history still happening, incredible evidence of the forces that shaped our earth all those millions of years ago.

If roughing it isn't quite the thing, luxury honeymoons taken as South America holidays have plenty to offer for the city-phile. The continent is home to two of the most vibrant and friendly cities in the world – Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. Check out the giant statue of Jesus and go bonkers in the carnival – or enjoy some of South America's emerging high life at the world class restaurants and bars of the downtown areas. Or even head out to one of the city beaches and get the best of both worlds – metropolitan cool next to stripped down suntanned beach bumming.

South America holidays make luxury honeymoons that just can't be had anywhere else on earth. They're safe, they're varied, and they'll take their honeymooners to some of the most amazing places they will ever see.
