Perfect Combinations

Written by Nathalia

Llama Travel offers a selection of combination tours that allow you to experience the wonders of two or more countries in one unforgettable holiday. These perfect combinations include the vibrant, culture-rich destinations of Vietnam and Cambodia; the breathtaking landscapes of Argentina and Chile; the remarkable wilderness and waterfalls of Botswana and Zimbabwe; the unmatched wildlife and hidden gems of Costa Rica and Guatemala; and the untamed beauty of Peru and the Galapagos Islands. Each itinerary showcases the very best of both countries and there’s always an option to extend your trip to make it even more extraordinary.

Vietnam and Cambodia

Experience the heart of Southeast Asia with a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia, two countries brimming with fascinating cultures, ancient marvels, and incredible scenery. Our combined tours take you through stunning landscapes while delving into their rich histories and vibrant local traditions.

Begin by exploring the temples of Angkor Wat, where tree roots envelop the stone pillars. Then, journey through Vietnam from south to north, starting in Saigon, the former capital now known as Ho Chi Minh City, where you’ll learn about the war and its unforgettable tunnels. Savour incredible street food in the bustling streets of the imperial city of Hue and wander through the ancient streets of Hoi An. A cruise through the limestone islets of Lan Ha Bay awaits, and, to end your adventure, discover the charm of Hanoi’s old quarter.

We offer various extensions to enhance your trip, such as a stay in rural Vietnam, a journey down the Mekong Delta, or even a visit to the neighbouring country of Laos.

Argentina and Chile

This holiday combines the natural splendour of the rugged Patagonian steppe with the sophistication and culture of Chile’s and Argentina's vibrant capital cities. Perhaps hike through the soaring peaks and sweeping valleys of Torres del Paine National Park, then come face-to-face with the breathtaking Perito Moreno Glacier in Argentina’s Los Glaciares National Park. Enjoy fantastic food and watch a tango dance in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s elegant capital city, and visit Santiago, Chile’s modern capital, framed by the snow-capped Andes.

Alternatively, you can come face-to-face with the monolithic Moai on Easter Island, unwind in a pristine land of volcanoes and glacial lakes in Chile’s Lake District, or traverse Tierra del Fuego, the Argentinean archipelago at the end of the world.

Botswana and Zimbabwe

If you’re looking for the ultimate safari experience, then look no further than our Delta Mobile Safari & Victoria Falls tour. Being fully immersed in the Okavango Delta is a constant treat, with outstanding wildlife viewing throughout the entire trip.

End the holiday with a visit to Victoria Falls, one of the natural wonders of the world in Zimbabwe.
