Our Travel Consultants come from around the world, have traveled extensively throughout South America and work “at the source" from our operations headquarters in Rio de Janeiro, Lima and Buenos Aires, and at our flagship office in Seattle. We are passionate about South America Travel, and we're happy to share with you our favorite Buenos Aires restaurants, our insider's tips for Machu Picchu, or our secret colonial gems of Brazil, and anything else you’re eager to know. The idea to create SouthAmerica.travel first came to Co-Founders Juergen Keller and Bradley Nehring while traveling through Brazil's Amazon Rainforest. The two noticed few international travelers, and those they did meet had struggled to arrange the trip by themselves. Expertise in custom travel planning to Brazil was scarce to nonexistent. This inspired the duo to start their own travel business to fill this void and help travelers plan great trips to Brazil, and later all South America. With five offices on three continents, as well as local telephone numbers in 88 countries worldwide, the SouthAmerica.travel Team has helped thousands of travelers fulfill their unique dream of discovering the marvelous and diverse continent of South America.

  • Global Warming Can Alter Shape of the Planet, As Melting Glaciers Erode the Land
    News date: October 1, 2015 compiled by Dr. Alvarinho J. Luis Global warming can alter shape of the planet, as melting glaciers erode the land Climate change is causing more than just warmer oceans and erratic weather. According to scientists, it also has the capacity to alter the shape of the planet. In a five-year study published today in Nature, lead author Michele Koppes from the University of British Columbia, compared glaciers in Patagonia and in the Antarctic Peninsula. She and her team found that glaciers in warmer Patagonia moved 100 to 1,000 times faster and caused more erosion than those in Antarctica, as warmer temperatures and melting ice helped lubricate the bed of the glaciers. Antarctica is warming up, and as it moves to temperatures above zero degrees Celsius, the glaciers are all going to start moving faster. We are already seeing that the ice sheets are starting to move faster and should become more erosive, digging deeper valleys and shedding more sediment into the oceans. The repercussions of this erosion add to the already complex effects of climate change in the polar regions. Faster moving glaciers deposit more sediment in downstream basins and on the continental shelves, potentially impacting fisheries, dams and access to clean freshwater in mountain communities. The polar continental margins in particular are hotspots of biodiversity, notes Koppes. If you're pumping out that much more sediment into the water, you're changing the aquatic habitat. The Canadian Arctic, one of the most rapidly warming regions of the world, will feel these effects acutely.
