I am looking for a good quality payware  scenery for south america or the caribian

Why overlook a significant number of freeware addon sceneries?  I completed a long Caribbean tour this past winter in the SWS Kodiak and likely 75-80% of the airports and strips I flew into and out of were freeware.  And many quite good!  I compare them in advance to photos and Google Earth viewing.

As others have suggested above I‘d highly recommend Paulo Ricardo’s Rio SBRJ. It comes with loads of custom buildings and POIs (it even has a moving cable car up Sugarloaf Mountain) and offers one of the most spectacular approaches I‘ve seen (RNAV Rwy 20R).

yes SBRJ I have, much underrated, I think one of the best! 

Thanks for all these suggestions, wish flightbeam, flytampa or an other big Developer would make scenery. 

Asobo has also some work to do in this region!!

My fave Caribbean and South American airports are Paulo's SBRJ, Sergio Rocha's SBSV, LatinVRF's TJSJ, the various developers of the 'ABC' islands and V-Pilot's SKCG & SKRG (fly those bright yellow Spirit Busses down there).  

I'll admit that I have grabbed almost every freeware Caribbean airport from flightsim.as I do a lot of flying around the various islands.  Some are only minimal enhancements but are still better than the default.

that's true.  I went with feelthere.  I honestly didn't do a deep comparison.  I like it a lot.  I'm not sure if the reason I like it so much is just the surrounding scenery that has nothing to do with the airport or not.  But I always felt tropicalsim skimped out in the past with p3d.  

I had to delete the FeelThere TIST due to it causing pink textures in various other airports I have (both freeware and payware).  I didn't realize TS had a version of TIST so may give that one a go.  I have a couple other TS airports and am happy with them (although I know somethings they can be a bit 'eh').

Paulo's SBRJ is worth every penny!

The scenery from Vuelosimple is fine.  I never saw the other one and plan on getting it.  Been to Provo many times.  Cool place..
