I visited two countries in South America in 1978 on my way to the World Cup in Argentina, we flew from New York to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, stayed for 2 days then flew to Buenos Aires in Argentina, I,d go back in a heartbeat if I could afford it. Only the dismal performance of the Scottish team spoiled my 6 weeks there.........

I think I would make it Brazil, simply for the sake that it has always fascinated me more than other South American destinations.

Any of Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, Peru, Chile or Ecuador will do. There is no way to get enough of this amazing continent with just one trip so I suggest you go there for at least 2 weeks. On my first trip I spent 1 week in Ecuador where I visited Quito and theAmazon, it is a good idea to visit the Amazon when in Ecuador cause the lodging is cheap, then flew to Lima, Nazca, Cusco and took the train to Macchu Picchu. It was a fat, full trip and I would suggest it to anyone. Another good idea is to spend a 6-7 days in Buenos Aires, Argentina, visit Iguazu falls from there, visit Montevideo which is very close (30min by plane) and that way you'll get to see another country as well (Uruguay) and then go down to Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego. At least 2 weeks for this trip too.

If I was to visit one country in South America, I think I'd go to Chile, because I love snowboarding, and I found out that Chile is the most recommended country in South America for snowboarding.
