I really love that you mentioned that you need to be prepared for every different climate you can think of when traveling South America. My little sister recently graduate from college, and she did Latin American studies as her major, so I really want to surprise her and go to South America. Her dream is to see Machu Picchu, and these tips will come in handy when we plan or trip.

there's a lot of accommodations in South America, Anna! Sometimes they are not just together in one place and sometimes it's language barrier.

is this difficulty in getting accomodations last minute is due to language barrier? or there's just a scarcity of accomodations in South America? thanks

Nice tips!
One question, if we will be heading to Brazil from Manila and we also wanted to go to Peru, what budget airlines can we book from Brazil to Peru and back to Brazil? Any idea on the cost? I think we can just allot 10 days for the whole trip. Or do you suggest we just explore Brazil only?
Thanks!

Thanks Gemma for the feedback! We had a hard time getting accommodations if it's last minute.. in Asia it was fine for us but in South America maybe not that common! You can do it though but after few disappointments and hassle, we just decided to book everything in advance. =)

great tips, I definitely agree with learning basic Spanish and always having dollars...they saved me twice!
On the other hand, I generally didn't book ahead in central America and had no problems, only once was the hostel dorms full, and i asked them for a nearby hostel which then did have empty beds. I did book for Easter week though, and I've never been to South America so maybe it's different there!
