Gringo Trail
Travel route in Latin America
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gringo Trail refers to a string of the Latin American places most often visited by "gringos", North Americans, Europeans, Australasians, other budget travellers and also vice tourists.
Geographical reach
The Gringo Trail encompasses almost all of Latin America, except Brazil, but there is no overland route on the Pan-American Highway between Central America and South America across the Darién Gap. Travelers generally charter boats in Panama or take the ferry.
