Travel in South America

Located mostly in the Southern Hemisphere, with only a small portion above the equator, South America is the fourth largest continent in the world.

It is also a continent of extremes. You can find the Amazon here, the world’s largest river, as well as the world’s driest place: the Atacama Desert.

The continent consists of 12 countries and is home to more than 400 million people.
