South America?

Question

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to travel around South America I already want to visit Brazil, Chile and Peru? Also how safe is public transport and where is not safe to go??

Answer 1

You should go to Colombia is the best place in south america and the transportation is extremly good. right now they are building a new system of transportation that is fast and it takes you all arround the City of Bogota. the new system is already avaliable but the are making it longer. The transportation is a system of Buses called trasmilenium

Go to COLOMBIA

Answer 2

In Chile the top tourist attraction would be Machu Picchu and Quito, in Chile you can head to Valparaiso or just about anywhere, in Brazil you can visit Rio de Janeiro and enjoy the beach scene or take a hike through the jungle. Another country i would recommend is Venezuela, it is absolutely beautiful and the people are amazingly friendly. People say its dangerous, but its not if you follow the basics and use common sense, you have a much larger chance of being murdered, kidnapped or robbed in Colombia, which has one of the highest murder and kidnapping rates in the world. But, obviously they blame all crime on the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia People's Army , they claim anyone who is not in the revolutionary armed forces is an innocent person who has never committed a crime and never will.

Answer 3

Chile? See Easter Island. Brazil? See the rainforest and go to Carnival. Peru? See Macchu Picchu. Try Colombia. A lot of really fabulous national parks. San Augustin has wonderful pre columbian ruins, Cartagena has a great fort, San Andres and providencia we stole from Nicaraugua and they are wonderful. Try it youll like. Dont ride the transmilenio if you area gringo. Good way to get your pocket picked. (Bogota used to be the town where they trained pick pockets)
