Valentine’s Day: The Best Destinations in South America

Machu Picchu

For couples interested in history and UNESCO World Heritage sites, visit one of the new 7 Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu. It’s hard to compete with the mysterious and impressive Inca citadel. Spend a cozy night in the charming town of Aguas Calientes and wake up early to see the sun rise over the mighty Machu Picchu. A trip here is unforgettable, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro, nicknamed the “Marvelous City,” is a metropolitan paradise anchored between granite mountains and blue waters. Sail through Guanabara Bay, where the sunset reflects on the gentle waves. It’s hard to choose another destination over Rio, where tropical beaches, warm weather, and lush green landscapes create a dream getaway. Relax and rejuvenate at the Copacabana Palace, one of the world’s most celebrated hotels, and enjoy luxurious services offered, such as a soothing couples massage. Continue to the secluded Ilha Grande for some sweet alone time. Disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city and fall even more in love while lounging on a deserted beach with a picturesque backdrop.

Mendoza

Mendoza, in the heart of Argentina’s wine region, is perfect for connoisseurs and passionate amateurs alike. The imposing Andes Mountains create a barrier to the moisture from the Pacific, providing 330 days of sunshine and perfect conditions for wine cultivation – and a stay with pleasant weather. Stay at a 4 or 5-star winery inn in the Mendoza region and savor exquisite Malbec wines in front of a crackling fireplace. Go horseback riding through the beautiful vineyards, go rafting on rapids, or opt for a scenic hike that offers stunning views of the Andes. Captivated by the relaxing atmosphere of the city, Mendoza will reignite any flame.

Cartagena

Plan a romantic getaway to one of the most charming cities in Colombia, Cartagena. The colonial architecture, warm Caribbean air, cobblestone streets, vibrant atmosphere, and charming balconies create an intimate setting ideal for romance. Glide together as one in a loving salsa class, or take a whimsical horse-drawn carriage ride at sunset.
