New 2023 expeditions include:

Road to Atacama

Sept. 27–Oct. 9, Overland adventure across the world’s driest desert outside of the polar regions. As an unknown territory to most people, Argentina’s Atacama Plateau and Chile’s beauty of landscapes is truly humbling. The expedition takes guests across elevated plateaus of wildly striking and desolate landscapes filled with rare sites like salt flats, flamingos, ancient Incan trails, labyrinths, herds of llamas and turquoise lakes. Exploring this landscape requires serious effort but is a one-of-a-kind experience.

Road to Bolivia

Considered one of the most secluded and underrated regions in the world, landlocked Bolivia offers unique landscapes with a rocky, treeless desert; almost vertical valleys and canyons; an unsullied rainforest; and more. Oct. 12–23, travelers go beyond the unknown and drive through slopes of ice-capped Andean peaks, including the plains of the Altiplano, the most extensive high plateau on earth outside of Tibet. Whether tracing the world-renowned Dakar Rally route or driving across the world’s largest salt flats of Salar De Uyuni, this trip  pushes travelers out of their comfort zones.
