JOURNEY Latin America has launched a brochure targeting the groups’ market.
It features Guatemala, Belize, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina.
Journey Latin Americamarketing director Chris Parrott said the programme, which took two years to put together, will appeal to those seeking activity and adventure.
“With the rise in popularity of outdoor adventure, clients are asking us for more than the traditional culture and history tours,” said Parrott.
Activities include hiking in Peru, biking in Costa Rica, rafting in Bolivia and horse riding in Patagonia.
The tours are graded to indicate the level of fitness required for the trip.
Prices include £1,881 per person for a nine-night tour through Belize.
