    South America indeed left me wide-eyed with wonder. This was my second WOW trip and what a trip it was. Rio de Janeiro was wonderful despite the rains and the samba class was so much fun with everyone trying on the costumes. The Iguassu falls and the Brazilian bird park were fabulous too. Peru made me gasp with wonder and for my breath too! Lima, Cusco, Lake Titicaca and of course Machu Picchu which was the focal point for most of the wanderers. . Bolivia was a lovely addition to the itinerary with the unique city of La Paz. As usual, a wonderful group of women made this trip a success. I must also mention the cool, level headed n always smiling WOW buddy Vithika. She was so caring n helpful when I was having trouble with the high altitude in Cusco. Thank you Vithika for coordinating everything so nicely

    My South America tour with WOW was truly memorable.The place is of course spectacular, the vibrant group of ladies and the perfect WOW buddy Vithika, all contributed to this being a splendid tour.The trip was replete with unexpected delights like the five course gourmet picnic in the fields...
    This was my first trip with WOW and most definitely the first of many.
    Congratulations to the team for the seamless arrangements and the thoughtful itinerary(though some tweaking is possible) and Tour buddy Vithika definitely deserves special mention for her smiling demeanor, unobtrusive presence ,compassion and patience.Hey excellent people centric skills make her an asset to WOW.
    Thank you for this beautiful experience. Let's travel together again and again.

    While selecting the tour agency for a trip, one asks “why WOW?” But after travelling ,one realizes that Wow is not just a travel agency---it is a travel family. The care and the exclusive hands-on experiences are something to be remembered even after the trip—be it dancing the Samba, a five star picnic lunch with snow-capped Andes range as companions, being photographed with the Llamas or tasting the local brews, such as Kashasa(Brazil), Pisco(Peru) or Singani(Bolivia)….even learning how to make a cocktail of perfect potency!! And of course the Wow buddy….a friend and a dependable companion. What makes her tick? This has been my second travelling experience with Vithika Solanki - and she has proved her worth.
