THE BEGINNING

South America Travel Centre was founded in 1995.  In 2011 the business was bought by Cinzia Mucciante, one of the original staff members, and Alex Burridge, who had previously worked at Peregrine Adventures for 15 years.  One of his roles at Peregrine was Polar Expeditions Manager, given most Antarctic voyages depart from South America Antarctica Travel Centre was added in 2012, the Arctic Travel Centre was added in 2015 to facilitate looking after past Antarctic travellers.   

We are a wholly owned Australian Business. 

OUR GOAL

To create your ideal journey; to combine a selection of experiences, properties, activities, tastes and events and to weave them together into a tour suited to your individual requirements. 

OUR TEAM

Experience is key, our team has a wealth of experience.  We first visited South America in 1992, Antarctica in 2000 and the Arctic in 2001.  Every year we return to add to our knowledge, to add to our experience which we then share with you to ensure we offer you the best advice.
