One of the special things about creating your own customized journey is that you don't have to just visit one country, you can travel to two in one epic adventure.⁠ ⁠ Chile and Bolivia offer a journey through some of the world's most breathtaking landscapes, blending natural wonders, rich culture, and unforgettable experiences.⁠ ⁠ Chile's got the otherworldly Atacama Desert and Patagonia's glaciers. The country's diverse landscapes are simply breathtaking. Beyond its natural wonders, Chile boasts vibrant cities like Santiago and Valparaíso, renowned wine regions, and a rich cultural heritage rooted in both indigenous and colonial traditions.⁠ ⁠ Bolivia remains an under-the-radar gem, offering incredible experiences like the learning about the rich indigenous cultural heritage of the Aymara and Quechua people. Their colorful garb, spoken languages, and ancient traditions have persisted since before Spanish rule. Explore the history of silver in Potosi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Then admire the beautifully preserved colonial architecture in Sucre. The salt flats of Salar de Uyuni will leave you wondering if you've traveled to another planet.⁠ ⁠ Here's what Ker & Downey's clients had to say about their Chile and Bolivia trip planned by @mjeraci ⁠ "We had such an incredible trip to Chile and Bolivia. The logistics for this trip were overwhelming for me to plan and the fact that everything went perfectly and allowed us to get the most out of our time in the area amazes me.
