Can’t rate this highly enough, so much insight it completely changed our South America trip. Great info on the history of places too which I didn’t expect. So nice to just use a book instead of our phones. We won’t travel without one in any country again.

good basic overview of all countries. Good for overall guidance but obviously lacks any detailed insights beyond d the clearly beaten path

I can't speak for personal experience other than Cartagena and Panama Canal but loving what seems to be the perfect guide for those wanting to travel to Buenos Aires and the Falklands and we do!
