About Contours Travel

"Bustrek is a unique travel experience for the adventurous and young-at-heart. It's for people who love to travel and see the real world that lies off the beaten track. People who enjoy the company of others and share a common pioneering spirit. People with a give-and-take attitude who are prepared to pitch in and help out. But above all, Bustrek is for people with a willingness to join in the fun and make the most of the holiday of a lifetime"

- The above paragraph was written and published in our first brochure in 1975.

Since pioneering the long haul overland tours (Bogota to Rio de Janeiro) Contours Travel has grown markedly and now operates conventional tours from Tijuana to Tierra del Fuego, and in the Caribbean. We have continually been involved with our first love, Latin America.

Although a successful tourism industry has developed in the Caribbean, Mexico and South and Central America, these special places remain largely unspoiled and Contours Travel can show you all of their original charm, mystery and natural beauty.

For the last 30 years the staff at Contours Travel have been exploring the far corners of these vast and mysterious lands and invite you to join them on the adventure of your lifetime.

Explore the sprawling, unspoiled continent of South America; revel in the Caribbean Islands set in liquid sapphire seas; discover the lands of extremes in Mexico and Central America, experience the enigmatic and eclectic island of Cuba.

We are continually redesigning and enhancing our travel suggestions. By designing itineraries personally, not only do we provide you with a memorable holiday, but also give you the opportunity to learn and experience these extraordinary countries and their people.

Contours Travel will help you design your itinerary, personally created to suit your interests, timeframe, and budget.

 

Contours Travel has been operating overland tours in Latin America since 1975. Today we cover over 45 countries in the region, offering you stunning landscapes, ancient cultures, unique wildlife…and most importantly, the people. Join a group tour, or allow us to create a personal and absolutely unique itinerary for you. No trip is too short…or too long; our longest private tour so far has been 97 days!
