During the last couple of years, Metropolitan Touring has been strengthening its capacities and abilities beyond Ecuador, in a regional approach for travel experiences, with the opening of new offices at the best sites along South America. We are now happy to announce the beginning of our operation in Chile, by end-September 2009; the latest step in the company’s development in South America. Our purpose is to provide our valued guests with the best services and expertise in Argentina, Chile, Ecuador and Peru; in combination with Metropolitan Touring’s constant search of new developments in travel exploration in each country, and an environmentally friendly operation, combined with the Destination Management expertise of specially trained hands-on local staff in each country.
This new venture is accomplished in partnership with explora, a specialist in experiential travel with its headquarters in Chile. explora offers lodge-based journeys in which an explora lodge is the central point for discovering the natural and cultural surroundings.
Metropolitan Touring Chile will provide the best quality services for incoming tourism to Chile, offering unique programs, in an escape to the untamed nature of Chile, that have been designed with those personal touches expected by today’s connoisseur travelers.
