Top destinations to visit in Latin America

Latin America

Start your journey with the pitch-black region of Peru and end it in the lucid blue subterranean Cenotes of Mexico. You will find each of the chapters of your journey unexpectedly more amazing than the previous one. You will experience the same joy as long as you continue your journey in the stunning areas of Latin America.

Most of the best travel destinations have been discovered by common travelers. They may also have talked about the places in a casual conversation without even realizing they are inspiring someone to visit them. Surprisingly, opinions about famous travel spots are more or less the same. Most of the travel enthusiasts share almost similar levels of excitement about popular travel destinations.

Bluish-green natural pools surrounded with organic caves of Semuc Champey, Guatemala

If you love both caving and swimming, you should visit Semuc Champey, Guatemala. The place is filled with numerous caves and beautiful natural pools. However, to enjoy both simultaneously, you have to reach the remote, wild part of Guatemala.

Some tourists believe that the caves surrounded by the deep blue pools are the most scenic attraction in the country. One of the popular spots of the place is the 300m-long organic limestone bridge. Along with the bridge, the beauty becomes more enticing to the swimmers with the trample number of clean rivers. No swimmer leaves the place without swimming at least once in the river water. Both the temper and water are swimming-friendly for everyone.

Explore the vibrant lifestyle of Sacred Valley, Peru

If you visit Peru, you should not leave the place without visiting two spots. One is the old colonial provinces, and the other is village markets located in Sacred Valley. It will be more convenient for you to decide the tourist spots you actually want to visit if you go through Peru Travel Guide.

Machu Picchu

Do visit the Sacred Valley if you like to explore uncommon and less traditional things. The canyon is a 70-mile confined pillage of land, connecting the capital Cusco to another famous spot known as Machu Picchu. The local markets and villages are packed with colourful scenic attractions.

When people cross Cusco, most of them do not miss the opportunity to visit the most popular Machu Picchu. This tourist spot is also filled with infinite natural beauty. If you love tracking, visit the Andes mountains.

Undiscovered beauty of the San Blas Islands, Panama

All of us might have looked at a postcard or a calendar and wondered about visiting a popular tourist spot. One such place is the San Blas islands of Panama; this scenic beauty has been printed as a cover on many calendars or postcards uncountable times.

In both Cartagena and Panama City, you can visit the yacht club and then cross Central America to South America using a boat. The journey becomes more soothing with the captivating scenery of the San Blas islands. Surprisingly, the islands never got as much popularity as they deserve. The tall palm trees around the blue water on the sand are something you can look at for hours.  

If you like deserts, you should visit San Pedro de Atacama in Chile

If you are fine with hot weather and do not struggle with hot flesh frequently, you should visit one of the driest cities in the world, known as San Pedro de Atacama. This is a distant city in the center of the Atacama desert. The remoteness spices up the adventure more for the visitors in Chile.

The tiny city is the final border for many tourists before diving into something more exotic. Many tourists reunite in the frontier after driving through the Chilean coast from the southern part or at the end of strained salt flats of Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia to the northern part.

Enjoy a real-life volcano at Acatenango, Guatemala

A live volcano is indeed a terrifying thing. However, some of us do like to experience the most dangerous things. If you are one of these people, you should go for a hike to the Acatenango volcano, located in the exterior area of Antigua in Guatemala. To explore the sight more closely, you should camp or hike on Acatenango. Moreover, if you want to enjoy the sunrise closely, you should stay at the peak of the Acatenango.

If you like fishing, you should not miss a chance to ride in a local fishing boat of the Chocó region on the Pacific coast of Colombia near the Panama-Colombia border.  There are two villages there worth a visit if you are in the locality- one is Capurganá, and the other is Sapzurro. Both of them are fantastic, easy-going getaways. 

Spend some time near the beach enjoying some fresh seafood in Capurganá and Sapzurro

The place welcomes you with great beaches and diving facilities. Moreover, you will get to taste some authentic seafood there, which will make the stay more enjoyable. The spot is also enriched with mountains surrounded by deep jungle, and the entire area is encircled with azure waters.

However, you can reach Capurganá and Sapzurro only through boats; you have to take the boats from Turbo or Necoclí. Alternatively, you can reach there by hiring a small plane from Medellín.

Cocora Valley, adjacent to the Salento, which is known as a colonial town in Colombia, is a great hiking place if you are visiting Central or South America. If you like to hike while enjoying the beauty of tall wax palm trees, you must visit the Cocora Valley.

Each of the places in Latin America will provide you with a new experience. However, visiting all the places at once is quite time-consuming and costly. So you should make a list according to your travel preference, and then visit them one by one according to your convenience.
