Some vacation destinations are much less costly than others, so travelers on a budget need to choose their vacation spots carefully. One of the most exciting, and least expensive, travel destinations for the budget traveler is the countries of Central and South America.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes;">Going where your dollars go farther
is one of the cardinal rules of budget travel, and U.S. dollars are highly
sought after, and incredibly valuable, in a number of Latin American countries.
For instance, for the same budget, you could spend a week at one of those
priciest Caribbean resorts, or several months in many fascinating parts of Central
and South America.</span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://www.oneworldadventures.com/trips"><b><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes; mso-themecolor: text1;">Budget travel</span></b></a><span style="font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes;"> in Latin America has many advantages far beyond the monetary
savings. For instance, some of the most amazing and unforgettable sights just
happen to be located in some of the world’s least expensive countries. These
easy to afford, hard to forget sights include the Incan wonders of Machu Picchu
in </span><a href="https://www.oneworldadventures.com/destinations/peru" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes; mso-themecolor: text1;">Peru</span></b></a><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes;">and the wonderful Mayan ruins
scattered throughout some of the least costly parts of Mexico, Guatemala and
Honduras. A budget Latin American vacation can include such exciting adventures
as exploring an unspoiled ­rainforest, white water rafting down some of the
world’s most beautiful rivers, climbing active and extinct volcanoes, and diving
off some of the world’s most spectacular coral reefs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The key to enjoying all this
adventure while staying within your budget is to shun the standard tourist
sights, and to take your time when traveling around. By doing this, not only
will you save money, but you will make contact with real people, and make some
wonderful memories. While in Cancun you may meet only other tourists, in the wilds
of Peru you will meet all kinds of people, from peasant coffee farmers to
experienced mountain guides and white water raft guides.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Visiting an affordable country means
you will enjoy wonderful meals, stay in unique and interesting places, and meet
wonderful people you will never forget, all for far less than you would spend
at home.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">When visiting Latin America, it is
important to take your time, not simply because there is so much to see, but
also because the pace of life there is slower and more relaxed. And after all,
relaxation is what a vacation should be all about. And the best thing is, your
vacation budget can last for many months in this most affordable of destinations.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Taking it slow will allow you to
spend time with and get acquainted with some of the most fascinating people you
will ever meet. Getting the perspective of the local population and learning
from their varied experience, is one of the best parts of travel, no matter
what your budget. Travel provides a perspective and a view of your place in the
world that nothing else can, and that is what makes it so uniquely valuable and
exciting.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Traveling throughout Central and
South America is also a great way to boost the local economies, and help the
lives of the wonderful people who live there. Spending time in a small village,
living with a local family in a small guest house, may well pay that family’s
bills for weeks, help send their children to school, and help them enjoy a brighter
future. Instead of spending your money in a large tourist</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; mso-no-proof: yes;">the resort, try stepping off the beaten
path for a couple of weeks or months.</span></p>


<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 4.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Not only will you save significant
sums of money, but you will help people who need the money. The beauty of
budget travel in Latin America is that your money goes directly to the people
who need it, instead of being filtered through resort owners, tour operators
and hotel managers.&nbsp;</span><span face="Helvetica, &quot;sans-serif&quot;" style="color: #333333; font-size: 12.5pt;">Aged
