Maria,
I meant to send this e-mail last week, but coming right
back to work and then Easter prevented me for doing so. I want
to thank you for your excellent work on our vacation. Everyone was
prompt and wonderful. We enjoyed our selves every minute.
Thank you again,
Julie
Hola Maria
– we are now back in Ottawa after a wonderful
trip to Chile. I would like to particularly thank you for all the arrangements,
especially
the flights and the non-Explora hotels, which were your particular
responsibility. All these arrangements worked perfectly, with no problems
at all. The flights were efficient and pleasant, especially the business
class flights to and from E. Island. The hotels were very comfortable
and well-equipped, especially the Ritz in Santiago. Your careful planning
made our trip relaxing and trouble-free. We will certainly recommend your
services to anyone we know who is interested in travel to Latin America.
With best wishes, David Morrow.
Dear Maria,
I just spoke to you about making
reservations for my January and February 2010 trip to Chile, and I want
to thank you for being so helpful and informative. I will write to you
very soon with specific information about where we want to go, and when,
but in the meantime I wanted to say thank you.
Sincerely,
Kathleen S.
Dear Maria,
Thank you for all your help setting up our recent trip
to Chile: We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in Chile.
The tours that you set up for the Atacama Desert and Easter Island
were excellent. The accommodations were good and tours companies were very
professional. The Neruda Apartment Hotel worked very well with us
since we stayed in Santiago for 6 nights. We did take your advice and took
day trips for example to Valparaiso and to the Cajon de Maipo. Again,
thank you for your travel services.
Sincerely,
Julie S.
Dear Maria.
The Explora Hotel was fabulous!
We had a wonderful time. I can't begin to tell you how much we appreciated
your help in getting us the reservations! Thank you also for the gift we
found in our room. I was a bit nervous in the beginning, and I think I
probably pestered you too much! However, you came through, and we had an
unforgetable experience! Many thanks.

Dear Maria,
I want to tell you how much we enjoyed our trip.
Everyone was so professional, and the guides on all the tours were so knowledgeable.
Everyone was right on time and we had absolutely no glitches. We absolutely
loved the Hotel Santa Cruz and thought the Hotel Galeria was lovely
for an urban environment. Thank you so much for your help, professionalism,
and expertise in making our trip to Chile a truly memorable experience!
Your advice and attention to detail was greatly appreciated. Chile is a
lovely country and we were so pleased to have experienced it with your
help.

Dear Guillermo :
We had a wonderful time on the trip to Chile. The tour
guide from ADS Mundo (Emilena - I think that's how you spell it) was especially
good and the tours of Santiago and Val Parasio/Vina del Mar made
it much more than just a ski trip. The food up at Valle Nevado was
also really good- better than we had in Italy! (I am Italian so that's
a particularly hard thing to admit). The wine was better, too. I will recommend
you if someone ask for advice on travel to Latin America Thanks again for
all your help.

Dear Maria:
I just returned from South America
and the package to Easter Island that I purchased through you. Everything
turned out well, just as you assured me. Thank you for your assistance
and patience with all my questions.
Best regards,

Hi Maria:
We have fallen in love with South America. Everything
in Argentina and Chile was perfect. The travel guides and accommodations--both
were wonderful. The highlights were: The exquisite Alvear Palace and
Tango night/dinner at Esquina Carlos Gardel in Buenos Aires (also great
shopping in Buenos Aires and nice city tour with guide), the beautiful
Llao
Llao between Lake Nahuel Huapi and Lake Moreno, the “sail” across the
Andes with snow capped volcanoes and wild flowers arriving at lovely Puerto
Varas on Lake Llanquihue with a striking view of the perfect Osorno
Volcano; We liked everything about the Explora Lodge—it turned out
that the weather for our entire trip was unusually sunny and clear with
occasional rainbows. Only the second day hike at Torres del Paine was windy
with sleet/rain/ (and snow for Lee who took the challenge of the hike to
the British Camp) but even that day it stopped raining for lunch and the
wind and rain just gave us a better feel for Patagonia. The vacation gods
were definitely with us. The Explora staff and guides were all professional,
informative and service oriented. Each day on the trail the guides
unloaded their packs and carefully laid out a checkered table cloth for
a delicioso lunch with hot soup, sandwiches with guacamole, artichoke hearts,
home-made deserts and coffee with Baileys optional. We thoroughly enjoyed
the Grey Glacier hike/glacier boat trip and the barbecue and horseback
ride at the Estancia with the gaucho’s. We saw condors, guanaco families,
rhea families and eagles. The purple and pink lupines and other wildflowers
en route were absolutely stunning. We missed the catamaran/zodiac from
Torres del Paine to Puerto Natales because of high winds but loved the
penguin
trip the next day on the way to Punta Arenas (the area opened about
8 AM – a great time when there are very few people in the study area and
the penguins are out of their burrows with their young with one mate parading
to the ocean for food. There are extensive board walks and a special viewing
area to watch the gymnastics in the waves). The Ritz Carlton in Santiago
was another plus, plus, plus –the rooms were lovely and the staff so accommodating
with our late departure time. Every transfer went smoothly—the guides were
always on time and extremely helpful with interactions at the airports.
Thank you again for working so patiently with us to make all the pieces
fit together. We will definitely highly recommend you personally and also
Latintrip to our friends and families.
Best regards,
Gail M, Lee M, Wesley R.
Hi Maria
I just got back from Argentina
yesterday & wanted to let you know we had a wonderful trip! Thank you
for all your arrangements --everything went very smoothly & there were
no glitches -- which was pretty amazing given the complexity of travelling
in Patagonia! We really loved the Explora Lodge -- that property
is outstanding, & the weather was perfect. Thanks for the bottle of
wine you sent, which was a nice welcome upon our arrival. We appreciate
all your help to make our holiday trip a memorable one.
Best regards,
Carole H.
Dear Maria,
I just wanted to give you a little feedback on our trip,
which we returned home yesterday. It was fantastic start to finish. Our
third leg of our trip was the Hotel Santa Cruz Plaza, and what a
great place! The staff and facility were just great. We had a couple days
of touring the area's museum, the wineries and an olive oil business. The
town is very charming. We will definately be recommending the hotel and
general area to our friends and family. And I personally look forward to
returning some day. Mucho Gracias to you for all your help and suggestions.
It all worked out beautifully.
Continued success to you,
David R.
Hello Ceci,
Returning from Chile, I would like
to inform you that everything was OK and that all the services were provided
according to what was agreed.Transfers, guides, excursions and car rental
were just great. Concerning the hotels, only the rooms of Charles Darwin
Hotel in Puerto Natals were quite small and the hotel has no other
services than the (poor) breakfast. The Casa de Don Tomas, in San Pedro
de Atacama, is a basic hotel but the rooms have enough space. All the
rest were according to our expectations. In general, the only problem with
the trip is time. To visit Chile we need, at least, 2 months, not weeks!
Thank you very much for all your help and above all for the professionalism
shown. I certainly would recommend your agency (and your personal) services
to any of my friends who will consider a future trip to Chile.
Best regards.
José P.
Maria.
I just wanted to thank you for all of your help with
our trip to Chile. The guides and services that Turismo provided were excellent.
We had A women that picked us up at the airport and did our 2 tours
in Santiago. Her name was Julie (or Julia) and then we had a man named
James who took us on the tour of Vina/Valparaiso and transported
us there. They could not have been better. The hotels were both great,
and the locations were wonderful. Overall we had a fantastic trip. I would
be sure to recommend your Services. If you ever need a recommendation please
be sure to let me know.
Thanks for everything.

Dear Sol,
Now that we have just returned
home, I just wanted to thank you for the bottle of wine that you left for
us at explora; it was quite thoughtful of you and much appreciated. The
entire trip went extremely well and everything flowed smoothly. It was
a wonderful vacation and experience and we thank you for helping us make
it happen.
With warmest regards,Richard R.
Hi Sol..

wine....it was delicious...bev schneir ........ just to let you know...the

Maria!
we had a WONDERFUL time on the
Mare
Australis and in Beunos Aires. I want to thank you for all you have
done on our behalf. The cruise exceded my expectations and I couldn't get
over how nice every one was to us! Also in BA, i wasn't used to that great
"customer service"...I really do appreciate what you have done. If you
are ever in San Francisco, I would like to buy you dinner.
Thanks again, Bonnie F.
Latintrip,
I just wanted to thank you for all the guides you arranged
for us during our recent trip in South America. They were all wonderful
and we had a marvelous time with them.
Thanks again.

Hi Ceci,
I am writing to you to thank you
for arranging a wonderful stay in Santiago for my wife and I and
for the Ross's. Everything was handled smoothly and without a problem.
The
Ritz-Carlton was superb and the tour guide we had was the best that
I ever had. The guides name is Jorge Carpio and I have only nice things
to say about him. He made our stay in Santiago a very memorable one. If
you ever need a recommendation, feel free to use my name. I thank you again
and hope that we do business again in the near future.
Take care. Sincerely, Eugene S.
Dear Maria and Ceci,
Many thanks for all your hard work and for helping me
put together Michel's Chile trip and Mr. C.'s pre-tour to Peru,
Everyone had a wonderful time and said they really love the trip and Chile.
All the hotels where great, the food fabulous the people very friendly.
Ceci, you know how worried Mr C. was about getting his vouchers and tickets....
and would some one really be there to pick him up at the airport ect....well,
he can't say enough good things about his trip and how well it was planned
out. How nice everyone was, how great the tours where, how informative
the tour guides where....he told me to highly recommend your company to
anyone who wants to travel to Peru or Chile.
Again, many thanks for all the hours you put into helping
me.The next time I have clients that want a tour of either country I will
definitely call you!!! Hope you have a great Valentine's Day today.
Warmest Regards,
Kim F.
Maria,
This is a short note to thank you
for the excellent arrangements for our recent trip to Argentina.
Everything went very smoothly and we had a wonderful time. In the future,
we are planning to take a trip (3N) to Esteros del Ibera (Arg.) and staying
at Posada Aquape, and to the Atacama Desert (Chile) and staying at the
Explora Lodge (4N). When you have time, you might put together an itinery
and cost estimate and send it to me. It would be better to visit the desert
last.
Thanks,
Maria and Ed C.
Dear Guillermo.
Our trip to Santa Cruz was incredible...
Thanks for all your help,
Fernanda R.
