Bunnik Tours unveils expanded 2026 South & Central America program

Bunnik Tours has launched its highly anticipated 2026 South & Central America season, featuring eight immersive itineraries and a record 49 departures.

Responding to growing demand, the program significantly expands its deluxe In‑Style range, including special departures timed with Mexico’s Day of the Dead and Peru’s Inti Raymi celebrations.

Travellers can journey from the cloud-wreathed ruins of Machu Picchu to the vibrant rhythms of Rio and Mexico’s traditions. The In‑Style range shines with stays at character-rich properties and deluxe experiences like the Belmond Hiram Bingham train to Machu Picchu. A standout highlight is the Belmond Andean Explorer—a lavish three-day, two-night rail journey across the High Andes offering breathtaking views and sumptuous onboard accommodations.

Discovery range takes you off the beaten track

The program offers in-depth explorations of less-travelled destinations. Unique itineraries include:

  • 35‑day South American Discovery: from the Amazon to the Andes, including mainland Ecuador.
  • 27‑day Peru & Ecuador Discovery: volcanoes, hot springs, Machu Picchu and Lake Titicaca.
  • 28‑day South American Explorer: Amazon, Andes, Iguazu Falls, Buenos Aires and Rio.
  • 20‑day Peru Explorer: featuring an Inti Raymi–timed departure in Cusco.
  • 23‑day Highlights of South America: iconic sights plus unique local activities such as crafting Pisco Sours and flying over the Nazca Lines.
  • 17‑day Viva Mexico: including a traditional trajinera lunch cruise in Xochimilco and two Day of the Dead departures.
  • 26‑day South America In‑Style: premium travel through Peru, Argentina and Brazil including both signature luxury trains.

All tours welcome up to 20 guests (16 for In‑Style), feature expert local guides, and focus on cultural immersion, curated comfort and authentic encounters.
