Journey through Chile, Argentina and Brazil, starting in Santiago, where you'll stroll the streets with a local guide to Plaza de Armas and the Central Market. Travel into the Aconcagua Valley and visit a historic winery, then cross the winding Los Caracoles Pass into Mendoza, for Malbec tastings and an olive oil factory tour. Continue to Buenos Aires and learn the steps of tango and the art of fileteado. Then, head north to the mighty Iguazu Falls before finishing in Rio de Janeiro. Wiggle your toes in the sand at the Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, sip caipirinhas and drink in the sunset views from Sugarloaf Mountain.

The grand, glamourous, unabashedly luxurious safaris favoured by princes and princesses, potentates, plutocrats, and ex-presidents (Teddy Roosevelt's epic 1909 safari was one of the first of its sumptuous kind) are central to East Africa's heritage as one of the world's most desired destinations. This Grand Safari is Micato's homage to those old and romantic days, to their indulgent and exquisite grace.
