10-Day Latin America Tour Packages
Ready for Latin America highlights hitting multiple countries? You're probably covering 2-3 countries max—could be Peru, Ecuador, maybe Chile or Argentina. You could even consider a Central America combination, like Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, hitting Mayan sites and beaches. Concentrated trips mean you're seeing major highlights without deep cultural immersion. It’s what travel is about.

10 Days Caribbean Island-Hopping, incl. St. Martin and Barbados
A luxurious 10-day sailing visits 9 ports across 7 Caribbean countries, costing approx. $900 per day. Gustavia's French charm, Basseterre's colonial heritage, and Mayreau's pristine beaches await. Includes 26 meals, luxury yacht accommodation, and expert-guided shore excursions.
- Day 1
Marigot, St. Martin
Get to Marigot on the French side of St. Martin before 7 PM. Take a quick 15-minute walk up to Fort Louis for beautiful harbor views at sunset. Get some euros while you're here since many upcoming French Caribbean stops prefer local currency.
- Day 2
Gustavia, St. Barthélemy
A quick sail brings you to stylish St. Barts. Start at Shell Beach early before the crowds arrive at 11 AM. The walk to Colombier Beach from the harbor takes about 30 minutes on rough terrain so bring good shoes and water. Book lunch spots in advance since most restaurants fill up fast in peak season.
- Day 3
Basseterre, St. Kitts
Start your morning in British-influenced Basseterre. Take the St. Kitts Scenic Railway tour early to avoid peak heat. See Brimstone Hill fortress in the afternoon but go before 4 PM for the best photo light. The Georgian buildings downtown look beautiful in morning sunlight.
- Day 4
Falmouth Harbour, Antigua
Visit the UNESCO site Nelson's Dockyard first thing before cruise ships dock. Take the moderate 90-minute hike up to Shirley Heights to watch the sunset over the harbor. Remember insect repellent since mosquitos come out at dusk.
- Day 5
Îles des Saintes, Guadeloupe
Take a tender boat to this French island group. Walk up to Fort Napoleon early in the morning. Go snorkeling at Pain de Sucre beach to spot sea turtles before noon. Stop by the local bakeries before 9 AM for fresh French pastries.
- Day 6
Saint-Pierre, Martinique
Wake up to stunning views of Mount Pelée towering over town. Visit the Volcanological Museum to learn about the 1902 eruption. Browse the local market in the morning and spend afternoons at the black sand beaches.
- Day 7
Soufrière, St. Lucia
The Pitons create a spectacular harbor setting. Take a morning boat tour for the best views. Visit the sulfur springs later in the day when it's less busy. A recent visitor shared: "The mud baths at the sulfur springs left my skin amazing, but bring dark swimwear - the sulfur can stain light colors."
- Days 8-9
Mayreau & Tobago Cays, St. Vincent & Grenadines
These spots offer excellent snorkeling. Visit Tobago Cays Marine Park in the morning when waters are calm to see sea turtles. Try the beach BBQ on Petit Rameau. Salt Whistle Bay stays quiet if you arrive before other boats at 10 AM.
- Day 10
Bridgetown, Barbados
Book flights after 11 AM to have enough time getting off the boat. If your schedule allows, take a morning tour of the Mount Gay Rum distillery before heading to the airport.
10 Days in Central America, incl. Guatemala and El Salvador
A grand tour through 15 Latin American destinations across Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador costs around $2,300. UNESCO sites like Tikal and Joya de Cerén, Rio Dulce's waterways, and colonial charm in Antigua Guatemala unfold over ten days. Includes expert guides and daily breakfast.
- Day 1
Guatemala City
Arrive at La Aurora International Airport. The tour only runs on Mondays and Fridays so plan accordingly. Book an afternoon flight to avoid Guatemala City's morning traffic. You'll have the evening free to rest and get used to the altitude (4,897 feet).
- Day 2
Guatemala City to San Salvador (270 km)
Start early for El Salvador. Visit Joya de Cerén, known as the 'Pompeii of the Americas.' Get there by mid-morning to beat the heat since there isn't much shade. You'll see well-preserved Mayan households and farming areas from 600 AD. Next up is the Tazumal archaeological site before reaching San Salvador.
- Day 3
San Salvador to Copán, Honduras
Start with Santa Ana's neo-gothic cathedral. Cross into Honduras - bring about $35 cash for border fees. Spend the afternoon at Copán's Mayan ruins. Start at the museum to learn about the site before exploring the Grand Plaza and the Hieroglyphic Stairway with its 2,200 glyphs.
- Day 4
Copán to Río Dulce
Head to Quiriguá Archaeological Park early to see Central America's tallest Mayan stelae. It's less crowded than Tikal but just as impressive. In the afternoon, travel to Río Dulce. Pack light, breathable clothes - the tropical humidity gets intense.
- Day 5
Río Dulce and Livingston
Spend the day on boat tours. Visit Livingston's Garifuna community, which you can only reach by water. The local coconut bread is worth trying. Take a scenic cruise through limestone canyons and mangroves to see the 17th-century Castle of San Felipe. End the day in Flores.
- Day 6
Tikal Day Trip
Leave before dawn for Tikal (1 hour away). Getting there early means catching sunrise and seeing wildlife - especially the howler monkeys. Climb Temple IV for great views, but wear good shoes because the wooden stairs can get slippery. Take an afternoon flight back to Guatemala City.
- Day 7
Chichicastenango to Lake Atitlán
Get an early start to reach Chichicastenango's market (only runs Thursday and Sunday). Arrive by 8 AM to beat the crowds. Check out Santo Tomás Church where Mayan and Catholic traditions mix. Drive to Lake Atitlán in the afternoon - ask for a lake-view room in Panajachel to see the volcanoes.
- Day 8
Lake Atitlán and San Juan La Laguna
Take the 8 AM boat to San Juan La Laguna. Visit local groups to see chocolate-making and textile dyeing. Bring cash if you want to buy crafts - it helps support the local communities. Later, head to colonial Antigua (2.5 hours on mountain roads).
- Day 9
Antigua Guatemala
Take a walking tour of this UNESCO World Heritage city. Visit La Merced Church and the cathedral ruins. You'll have the afternoon free to explore the cobblestone streets and shops. Take photos of Agua Volcano in the early morning before clouds appear.
- Day 10
Departure
Head to Guatemala City airport in the morning (1 hour drive). Book flights after 11 AM to account for traffic.

What people love about 10-day Latin America tours
- The End of the World + El Chalten w/Bus (10 Days)
A very well-planned trip for typical backpackers. It covered all the main sights. There were also plenty of opportunities for individual adventures. The Hi Travel Argentina representatives were always available when needed. My only suggestion is to choose between different accommodation categories (hostel or hotel). Sometimes backpackers need more comfort (the Hotel Del Glaciar Libertador in El Calafate was great). Be prepared for sweet, non-European breakfasts.
