Specialist tour operator Journey Latin America is delighted to unveil their newly designed website which includes over 140 brand new, original holiday ideas.
With over 30 years experience in organising tailor-made holidays and escorted group tours to the region, the award-winning tour operator set out to create a website which showcases their knowledge, passion and unrivalled range of inspirational travel ideas to Central and South America.
The new website provides a detailed insight into more than 150 locations in Latin America. Users can navigate seamlessly through a variety of specially designed holidays featuring places from the russet ravines and gorges of Mexico's Copper Canyon in the north, to the cobalt-blue glaciers of Patagonia, and Antarctica in the far south.
In addition, the website offers over 400 activities – from the iconic, such as walking the Inca Trail or cruising the Galápagos Islands, to the lesser known such as swimming with whale sharks in Mexico or stargazing in Chile's Atacama Desert.
The website's most innovative feature is its user-friendly and instant online quote tool, allowing customers to select their chosen date of travel and book many of the holidays online in just three simple steps.
To launch their new online holiday booking system, Journey Latin America has crafted some over 100 new Private Journeys throughout the region. These new ranges of holidays have been carefully designed to reflect a variety of styles of travel and interests often requested by Journey Latin America's customers. These include classic tours, food and wine holidays, archaeology breaks, self-drive itineraries, off-the-beaten-track adventures, cruising expeditions and multi-activity trips. With luxury and value options also included, all budgets are catered for.
Sarah Bradley, Managing Director at Journey Latin America comments "While we are experts in tailor-making holidays which perfectly match a customer's requirements, we recognise that not everybody wants a custom-built trip with the inevitable investment of time to discuss and refine all the elements. So we've developed an entirely new range of holidays for individuals which can be booked online, without any fuss or bother. Importantly, all have been designed by our experts, who've singled out the best combination of attractions, hand-picked their favourite hotels and carefully selected the most practical travel options, using their years of knowledge and experience to create inspiring holidays with the Journey Latin America stamp of quality".
Three holidays from Journey Latin America's Private Journeys range are:
