South America

TortoiseTour this vast continent of stunning extremes: the world’s largest tropical rainforest and longest mountain chain, sweeping grasslands and bone-dry deserts where rain never falls. It’s home to many unique animals too.

Follow Charles Darwin to the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador to see the birds and reptiles that inspired his thinking on evolution. On the mainland, see mammal holdovers from the Ice Ages and birds that Darwin called ostriches, after their close relatives in Africa.
