Because Ordinary Isn't an Option

From the Andes to the Amazon: South America in Style

START PLANNING

Bruce's Favorite Pick for South America 

Santiago de Chile: Urban Sophistication Beneath the Andes

Santiago is where old-world charm meets sleek modernism — a city framed by snow-capped mountains and infused with Latin flair. With its art-forward districts, world-class dining, and seamless access to both wine country and the Andes, Santiago is the perfect launchpad for a Chilean luxury adventure.

  • Top Resort:

    • The Ritz-Carlton, Santiago – Panoramic Andes views, rooftop spa, impeccable service

    • Hotel Magnolia – Chic boutique stay in the historic city center

  • Highlight Experiences:

    • Private art walk through the Lastarria District with a local curator

    • Chef-led tasting menu in a hidden fine-dining kitchen

    • Day trip to Valparaíso with a private guide & coastal wine tasting

    • Helicopter transfer to the Casablanca Valley for a curated wine flight lunch

  • Pro Travel Tip: Combine 2 nights in Santiago with 2–3 nights in the Atacama Desert or Patagonia for the ultimate contrast in experiences — city, desert, and glaciers in one unforgettable journey.

WHERE TO GO

HIGHLIGHTS

South America 

South America is raw, refined, and endlessly rewarding. It’s a continent that stirs the soul — where adventure meets elegance, and every moment is framed by something unforgettable. From sipping world-class wines beneath the Andes to sailing past glaciers in Patagonia or standing in awe before Machu Picchu, this is travel at its boldest and most breathtaking.

That’s why I’ve chosen South America as one of our next Passport Club Trips — a curated, small-group journey designed for our most loyal and adventurous travelers. Every detail will be elevated, every experience exclusive, and every memory shared among like-minded explorers who crave more than the ordinary.

If you’ve been waiting for something extraordinary... this is it.
