    So the missus-to-be and myself are off on our travels in early October.
    We have a bit of a loose itinerary planed out but nothing substantial.
    It's basically a round the world going to South America first.

    So thats where this post comes in, looking for any first hand information anyone has off traveling through South America.

    any tips or tricks etc.
    where to go/not to go.
    Visa's & permits

    Any help at all basically.

    here is a rough outline/time frame we're talking about.

    [HTML]Venezuela - Angel Falls - Oct

    Peru - Machu Picchu
    Chile - Santiago - Christmas 06

    New Zealand - work for a while - mid Jan 07
    Australia - gf already worked here before so only passing through

    Loved bolivia -the trip up the river to the panatanal was one of my most memorable travel experiences the wildlife was amazing and the trip was really cheap (think it was about 60 dollars for 3 days) flight from la paz through the andes peaks was breath taking
    Followed up by a 2 day horse riding trip in Tupiza down on the argentinian border best horses i have ever had the pleasure of taking out through butch cassidy territory , red rock arizona style .
    Then finish up through the salt plains in uyuni with a connection to chile
    There is a piece in the sunday times today about isla del sol ,lake titicaca the bolivian side
    La paz was a crazy town too
    I didnt really like Peru tbh , I found the hassle there fairly extreme
