Marion Bunnik, founder and product director of Bunnik Tours, will be escorting two small group tours throughout South and Central America in 2018.
“The itineraries that I have chosen venture a little off the beaten tourist trail but take in some of the world’s most pristine and breath-taking sights, scenery and wildlife, and venture into small local villages to gain a real insight into each country’s culture,” Bunnik said.
Her first small group tour will be a 26-day Ultimate Chile & Argentina journey. Guests will depart Australia on 16 January 2018 and arrive in Chile’s capital Santiago. The tour includes a visit to the Atacama Desert, the Chilean fjords, thermal hot springs and a night in a luxury treehouse in the Patagonian rainforest. A highlight of this tour is a visit to the Casa de la Mujer Mapuche near Pucon, Chile. Prices start at $18,815pp, including return international airfares, five flights within South America, air taxes, tipping and transfers.
The 33-day Costa Rica, Nicaragua & the Panama Canal cruise and tour departs Australia on 10 March 2018 and will visit Arenal, what was once Costa Rica’s most active volcano. Guests can relax in volcanic thermal springs and journey into Juan Del Sur, Omotepe Island, and enjoy a 15-night cruise on board Island Princess. Prices start at $15,235pp and include return international airfares, internal flight, air taxes, tipping and transfers.
