“Nadia gave me a great idea of a trip. Too bad that my husband will need surgery and we'll have to postpone. I will come back to Nadia when needed. I recommend”

18-day couple trip to Brazil & Argentina

“From the very first email enquiry to the last day of our holiday the service from Rough Guides was 100%. The itinerary planned was varied, there was no worry about logistics and every single guide and driver were extremely friendly and polite. We has a wonderful time exploring Argentina and Brazil. The time spent there was just not long enough, 2 and a half week. You need a month or more.”
