Beacon South America

Beacon South America is an online division of Shandon Travel Group www.shandontravel.ie established in 1974.

Recognising the need for Irish travellers to do something different and to be somewhere different we are delighted to bring you Mexico, Central and South America from Ireland.

Covering a vast expanse of the earth's surface, from north of the equator to striking distance of Antarctica and the South Pole. South America contains the world's greatest river, longest mountain range, highest active volcanoes and tallest waterfalls. Straddling both hemispheres, when it's winter at one end, its summer at the other. You can find almost any kind of landscape here from steamy rainforests to arid desert, from ski slopes to tropical beaches, from European-style capitals to primitive tribal villages.

Marvel at the ingenuity of past civilisations in Machu Picchu, swim with sea lions in the Galapagos Islands, be enthralled with the beauty of nature at the Perito Moreno Glacier, experience life in the Amazon Jungle or learn to Tango in Buenos Aires. All this makes South America one of the worlds most diverse destinations.

When selecting “Highlights” for each of the countries featured in this brochure, our aim is to make suggestions for your itinerary that you will find exciting. If you have a special interest in history, nature, trekking, wine tasting or another activity, want to experience the Carnival in Rio or follow in the trail of the Conquerors of Mexico, then please call us. We will be delighted to tailor a holiday to suit you. There is an endless range of options available to make this your perfect adventure; here you will find just the tip of the iceberg.
