7 Exciting Wildlife Photography Holidays Within South America
South America is a treasure trove of wildlife wonders, home to some of the most iconic & awe-inspiring species on the planet. From the vibrant Amazon rainforest to the rugged peaks of the Andes mountains, this continent offers a diverse range of habitats & ecosystems. Photographers seeking to capture stunning images of jaguars, pumas, macaws, toucans, & other exotic wildlife will find no shortage of opportunities in South America.
The continent is connected to North America by a narrow strip of land known as the Isthmus of Panama.
We would consider the ‘must photograph species’ within South America to include the Gray-Breasted Mountain-Toucan, Plate-billed Mountain-toucan, Crimson-Rumped Toucanet plus many more.
