Travel tours are popular for good reason. They’re an affordable, easy way to travel to multiple destinations, and they’ve been designed by travel experts – so you know the places you’ll go are the best of the best.

They’re also an amazing way to make lifelong friends, all bonded by stories of exciting adventures and unique experiences.

This month, STA Travel and G Adventures are offering mass discounts on two of their most popular tours – The Scenic Route – Lima to Buenos Aires, and Vietnam & Laos on a Shoestring. The 30 and 20 day tours (respectively) feature some of the hottest areas to travel right now, and at a big ol’ discounted price, too.

South America and South East Asia are all the rage right now, for good reason. The two regions are jam packed full of amazing countries, landscapes, activities and people.

On The Scenic Route – Lima to Buenos Aires you’ll hit up Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina, visiting some of the most instagrammable places in the world. In Peru you’ll have the opportunity to visit Machu Picchu, a guided tour of Lake Titicaca (the largest lake in South America) and two of the Lake’s famous islands; Uros and Taquile. Crossing the border into Bolivia, the tour will visit the Valley of the Moon in Puno, and venture to the Uyuni Salt Flats on a 3-day, 4×4 adventure. Visit the Casablanca Valley in Santiago and enjoy an afternoon of wine tastings, before heading to Buenos Aires to wrap the trip up.

The 20-day Vietnam & Laos on a Shoestring tour covers plenty of South East Asian ground, starting in Vietnam’s biggest city Ho Chi Minh City, heading through Vietnam’s hottest tourist spots including Nha Trang, Hoi An, Hue, Halong Bay and Hanoi where you can indulge in noodle making demonstrations, brush up on history in the Royal Citadel and tombs, explore caves, visit tailors, relax on beaches and visit the historically significant sites such as the Temple of Literature, Hoa Lo Prison and the Old Quarter. From there you head across to Laos, first finding yourself in their capital city, Vientiane where you can visit temples, see the golden stupa of That Luang and scour markets. After Vientiane, the tour heads to Vang Vieng, Luang Prabang to witness the giving of alms to the Buddhist monks, visit night markets, explore caves or take a cooking class, before cruising along the Mekong on a houseboat, finding yourself in Thailand’s Chiang Khong, where you’re able to visit the Doi Suthep temple, catch some Thai boxing or grab a bargain at the famous night market before the tour concludes in Chiang Mai.
