andBeyond South America

With andBeyond South America, the philosophy of the sustainable luxury travel provider, which is already practised in Africa and Asia, has been taken across borders and spread to another continent.  

The customised round trips in Argentina, Chile, Ecuador & Peru combine the most beautiful and best-located luxury and boutique hotels with truly unique andBeyond moments. The regional & expert local team specialises in making customer wishes come true. Whether a visit to Easter Island, a hike to Machu Picchu, the vibrant city of Buenos Aires or the biodiverse Galapagos Islands - South America combines one "Once in a Lifetime Experience" with the next and can be travelled individually.  

The first lodge outside of Africa was proudly opened in Pucon, Chile, in September 2018. andBeyond Vira Vira is located in the picturesque Araucania region in Chile's lake district. The spectacular 22-hectare Vira Vira estate combines high-quality luxury hospitality with its natural surroundings in keeping with the andBeyond philosophy.

Dramatic landscapes with breathtaking glacial lakes mirror the snow-capped peaks of nearby volcanoes, while the rainforests of the surrounding national parks are home to evergreen Araucaria araucana trees (monkey puzzle), some of which are over 1,000 years old. This region is both the gateway to Patagonia and an exciting adventure paradise.

Set on a sprawling, wooded property with 822 metres of riverfront and breathtaking views of the snow-capped Villarica Volcano, this magnificent wooden lodge is characterised by its architecture. Huge windows frame exquisite views, while colourful tapestries, hand-woven textiles and other traditional artefacts characterise the interior. Special features include a modern farm, an organic vegetable garden, an on-site cheese dairy and two outdoor hot tubs.

The first luxury expedition yacht andBeyond Galapagos Explorers sets sail in June 2024. 12 passengers will discover the beautiful nature and wildlife of the Galapagos Islands on this personalized journey.
