At Atelier, we have our own understanding of what luxury travel in South America really means, and it goes beyond the five-star hotels, yachts, heli-tours and cruises that might first spring to mind. For us, a real luxury tour of South America also means seeing an alternative side of the country, town or community that you find yourself in while here. It could be anything as humble as a private meal in the home of a high-Andean farmer, to a behind-the-scenes tour of an exceptional art gallery. 

Atelier will arrange intimate performances, access to temples, national parks, museums and restaurants to fill your time with one memorable moment after another, as well as the chance to meet the people and witness the wildlife that make South America such an incredible travel destination, during your own carefully crafted journey.

That said, when your personal Destination Expert is designing that one-off luxury tour of South America, you can be sure that only the finest hotels, boutique lodges, unique locations and exclusive experiences will be included throughout. If you’re heading to the Amazon, for example, we’ll only consider the top eco-lodges or perhaps a luxury river cruise, while city hotels will be handpicked, excursions and guides tailored to suit you and the overall attention to detail—from first-class private transfers to once-in-a-lifetime tours and trips—will always be second to none.
