What the Latin American Travel Concept Can Do for You

Have you explored Latin America lately? If not, you should learn about the Latin American Travel Concept (LATC) (http://crillontours.com/latc/) from Sandra Sallovitz of Destinos Enterprises (http://www.destinosenterprises.com/) .

LATC is a Network formed by some of the best Latin American Professionals of the Travel Industry in order to sell Latin America as a SINGLE PRODUCT.

When working with LATC partners, Travel Writers benefit from:

• The expertise and experience to create truly tailor-made itineraries for individual travelers, (incentive) groups, or special interest tours according to their travel style and budget

• Destination specialists who know their region from personal experience

• A network of branch offices in Buenos Aires, Quito, Lima, La Paz, Bogota, Rio and Santiago, covering almost the 100% of South America.

As the official representative of the LATC association – which comprises 7 wholesale operators from the countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru – Sallovitz will walk you through the ways travel writers can work with this important new association.
