Castillano is universally understood in the 'Spanish' speaking counties in South America.
You should learn as much as you can.
It will massively increase your enjoyment and immersion of culture during your trip, save you money in hotels, restaurants and maybe essential in an emergency.
I highly recommend the Michele Thomas Audio learning guides. He has a fantastic method of teaching you the essentials.
