Because it's such a big place and costs vary considerably from one country to the next, it's a good idea to take a combination of cash, traveller's cheques and credit cards. Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru are by far the cheapest nations in South America and some remote corners of Argentina will offer good value for money as well.

Where travellers really have to watch their wallets is in the urban centres of Brazil, Chile, the Galápagos Islands, Easter Island and French Guiana. These places come in at the top in terms of everyday costs. This article will cover some helpful tips about transportation, food and drink, weather and safety while exploring this fascinating continent.

Getting Around by Bus or Plane

Shoestring travellers will likely use the extensive bus network when getting from one city to another. In Brazil, a bus is the most practical mode of transportation. Everyone uses them and the vehicles are well maintained. Ask for a seat on a leixo (pronounced: lay-shoo) which has reclining seats, blankets and bathrooms. Buses go everywhere, even as far as the Amazon. Brazil is large and distances are very long so choose a more expensive and comfortable class of bus. Taking buses in Peru or Bolivia will be bumpier since these places are mountainous and many roads are not paved.
