The Atacama Desert can be explored all year, but summer days sizzle and nights are bitterly cold at higher altitudes throughout the year. Easter Island and the Juan Fernández archipelago are cooler and quieter outside summer; March is an ideal time to visit. High season is December through March.Set out to find sweeping desert solitude, climb craggy Andean summits or wander the sacred forests of poet Pablo Neruda. Surf, paddle or sail your way up or down the seemingly endless coast. Explore the mysteries of Easter Island, stargaze, soak in natural hot springs or watch glaciers calve.
The best time to visit Argentina is in spring (September through November), when the jacarandas are in bloom and temperatures are blissfully cool, and in fall (March through May).From mighty Iguazú Falls in the subtropical north to the thunderous, crackling advance of the Perito Moreno Glacier in the south, The country boasts some of the Andes' highest peaks, several of which top 6000m near Mendoza and San Juan. Rio de Janeiro is really quite moderate all year round. From the world-famous beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema to the tops of scenic outlooks of Corcovado and Pão de Açúcar to the dance halls, bars and open-air cafes that proliferate the city,this idea of paradise has enchanted visitors for centuries.

Peak times for travelers are Christmas, Easter, July and August. The ideal time to visit is January to May, when it's warm but uncrowded and there's no threat of hurricanes (which can be a problem on the coasts from June to November). Festivals happen all year round. From tobacco fields and fishing villages, to revolutionist monuments and relaxing beaches, Cuba is home to one of the most captivating cultures in the world. Take in the crumbling facades of colonial buildings, meet chilled out locals puffing on cigars and wiggle your toes in the sand on an isolated beach. Experience Cuba in all its glory and discover the colours, cuisine and culture that make up this truly distinctive country.

Ecuador is a year-round destination. The Andes, the Pacific coast, the Orient and the Galápagos - has its optimal visiting season. There are Andean villages renowned for their colorful textiles and sprawling markets, Afro-Ecuadorian towns where days end with meals of fresh seafood and memorable sunsets, and remote settlements in the Amazon where shamans still harvest the traditional rainforest medicines of their ancestors. The famed Galápagos Islands, with their volcanic, otherworldly landscapes, are a magnet for wildlife lovers. Here, you can get up close and personal with massive lumbering tortoises, scurrying marine iguanas, doe-eyed sea lions, prancing blue-footed boobies.
The most pleasant time to visit Colombia is in the dry season, between December and March or in July and August. Colonial cities, archaeological ruins, high-mountain trekking, whale watching, coffee plantations, scuba diving, surfing, The essence of Colombia resides in the mountains in the alpine cities of Bogotá, Medellin and Cali.Venezuela has one dry season (roughly November/December to April/May) and one wet season (the rest of the year). The dry season is certainly more pleasant for traveling. The country claims Andean peaks; the longest stretch of Caribbean coastline, tranquil offshore islands set amid turquoise seas; wetlands teeming with caimans, capybaras, piranhas and anacondas; the steamy Amazon; and rolling savanna punctuated by flat-topped mountains called tepuis.
