The communication from the time of organization of our tailor-made vacation to Peru, Rio and Iguazu Falls to sudden change in itinerary due to a flight cancellation was second to none. They helped us reorganize the itinerary because of flight cancellation from London by flight operator. The tour operators used by the agent at the locations we visited in Lima, Cusco, Machu Picchu, Rio de Janeiro, and Iguazu Falls were superb. We live in London and was a bit apprehensive about using an agent in USA, but I can honestly say we would strongly recommend South American Vacations without any reservations. We will definitely be using them again.

South American Vacations was amazing! We planned our vacation before the pandemic and had to cancel and re-book several times before we were finally able to take our vacation. We changed our plans and added extra days. We added extra stops. Every time they were so gracious and easy to work with. Even at the last minute we wanted to add the Nazca Lines to our Peru trip and add an extra day. They got us a terrific deal, a wonderful hotel, and we had guides and translators meet us at every airport, help us get on our flights, and make sure everything went smoothly. I cannot recommend anyone who could provide better service! They provided our itinerary on-line complete with contact information in case anything went wrong (like one flight was delayed). They made our vacation everything we dreamed it would be! Now we will have wonderful memories forever!

I would never travel with this company. Beware of giving them a deposit - you won’t get it back! They will tell you to ask your credit card company even if Covid cases soar and you cancel well in advance. Stay away and use a company that is more reliable and reasonable.

Jacki, Lori, and Lisa are all in the same group. Unfortunately, we do not have a cancel any time for any reason policy. I don't believe that any tour operator does. We offered several times to reschedule the trip at no cost to no avail.

Our group booked with this company for a bucket list trip to Galapagos and Peru We gave a $1000 deposit each The pandemic worsened and it was clear we were not going to travel at that time. We cancelled months in advance and the trip would not refund any of our deposit. I have no confidence in this tour operator. The customer service was awful Had we received even a partial refund we may have considered using them next time Try Gate 1 instead They were awesome to work with!. Our group had a fantastic experience with them

By far the worst customer service and company. I would never ever use this company to book any vacation. Still waiting for my deposit to be returned as we cancelled months ago.

We'd like to commend the services provided by Martha Cohen of South American Vacations. We booked with her a 7 day tour of Santiago/Easter Island, Chile. The timing happened to be the start of coronavirus in South America. She provided tremendous help to us in amending the booking of flights, hotels and pickup/drop off services during this unpredictable period. We are grateful for her services and support so we could leave Easter Island and Santiago and returned home. We would recommend her services to whoever needs to travel to South America.

Our hotels were all excellent and in some cases unique. Guides were knowledgeable, on time, helpful and personable. Vans were clean and comfortable, and the drivers very good. The trip went like clockwork. The itinerary was inclusive, and mostly fast paced. Still found some time to relax, usually in beautiful settings. There were several “surprises” which were amazing. We were very pleased with the whole trip. Highly recommend SA Vacations!
