Tierra Latina : Who are we ?

OUR COMPANY

Founded by two South American enthusiasts, Tierra Latina’s travelers live unique experiences in contact with local populations, immersed in rich ancestral culture. Chloé and Arthur have explored the forgotten paths of the Amazon, traveled the sumptuous plains of Patagonia and shared the life of Gaucho, Kogi, Tayrona and Guarani communities, giving them like-the-back-of-your-hand knowledge of the terrain to offer custom-made travel plans.

Chloe and Arthur, travelers at heart, have traveled along the forgotten trails of the Amazon, the plains of Patagonia or even shared the daily Gauchos, Kogis, Tayronas, Quechuas and Guaranis. With their experiences they offer you today the opportunity to create your trip a la carte and tailor-made in Latin America: Trekking, hiking or horseback, discovery and initiation to Tango with the best dancers of Buenos Aires, stay in the farm on the Andean plateaus, exploration of the remains of a lost city in the Andes cordillera, whale watching in their natural environment …

At the antipodes of mass tourism, we privilege an immersion in the local culture by designing personalized trips which include nights at the inhabitant to stay closer to the reality, in a human dimension and authentic.

Tierra Latina is managed by Arthur in France and Chloé in Buenos Aires, their South American headquarters. Chloé works directly with local partners to guarantee the highest quality and down-to-the-details personalization for your unique travel plans.

OUR LOCAL TEAM IN ARGENTINA

EVA, guide and professional tango dancer in Buenos Aires.

What I love the most about Argentineans is their sense of improvisation and their ability to reinvent themselves every day, their “buena onda”, their festive and social spirit … And I do not even talk about the culture gaucha / folklórica and tanguera …

SARAH, local guide in San Antonio de Areco.

I dreamed for a long time to go to Latin America, already knowing Africa … I arrived in Argentina in 2014 with a tourist visa time to see if this country would please me, and I was very quickly seduced by the energy and human warmth (buena onda!) of the Porteños.

ALEXANDRA, travel consultant

Since I was little, I think that every opportunity is good for traveling. After a bachelor’s degree in tourism management in Savoie and a semester in Sweden I decided to go on an adventure and have a new experience in Argentina. When I returned to France, I let myself be tempted by the Tierra Latina adventure. Argentina has become for me a dream destination because of its vastness and the kindness of the Argentineans.

RAUL, local guide in the Argentine Andes

I am the son of indigenous migrants who occupied an area of the Andes, south of Potosí in Bolivia on the border with Argentina.
In 1937, my father (still alive today), aged 16, worked as a “zafrero”: he manually cut the sugar cane in the Ledesma sugar refinery. From this first incursion into the subtropical zone of the Jujuyan valleys, he never could return to his native land. Today, it is a ghost village following the exodus of all its inhabitants.
After obtaining his permanent establishment in Argentina, in 1951 my father established permanent residence in the capital.
I studied and worked in this city.
I am a journalist by training and for 20 years I worked in the newspaper “Pregón” of San Salvador de Jujuy. It is in this city that I met my wife, Isabel.
