LatinExcursions’ Founder – Eric Sheets – Named in Travel + Leisure’s A-List for 4th Consecutive Year

Miami Beach, FL – October 5, 2008: Eric Sheets, president and founder of luxury travel company Latin Excursions (latinexcursions.com) has been named to Travel + Leisure magazine’s A-List for the fourth consecutive year. This coveted award honors Sheets as a top U.S. travel consultant for luxury travel to Central and South America.

A true insider in Latin America, Sheets is an American who was born in Brazil, and resided throughout the region. He continues to supplement his familiarity with the region with frequent trips to scout out the best in new destinations, such as new charming hotels and travel experiences. After a career in finance, and years of planning personalized trips for colleagues and friends, Sheets opened Latin Excursions, a boutique travel company that focuses on upscale and highly personalized travel planning. He likes to call his trips travel productions. Strongly believing that travel experiences are not “one size fits all,” but rather a very personal proposition tailor-made to specific tastes and preferences, Sheets has expanded his company to include experts in destinations from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, the Galapagos Islands and Ecuador, Mexico and more.

At a time where the industry promotes pre-packaged, cookie cuter tours, Latin Excursions focuses on understated luxury experiences set it apart from the crowd. With his preference for that unique, personal touch, Sheets has narrowed the Latin Excursions specialty, providing understated luxury experiences for clients, where the focus is not on the best or grandest hotel, hacienda, villa or other accommodation in a destination, but rather on finding the most charming, unique or authentic option in the region. His vision is to fill your South American adventure with personalized, subtle touches of luxury, where the actual activity is what defines your travel.

“We don’t have a formula that we use to design every trip, but we do have a consistent sensibility that informs everything we do,” says Eric Sheets, founder of Latin Excursions. “We believe life is to be enjoyed and discovered, and we take the greatest pleasure in sharing our discoveries with you.”

Latin Excursions’ approach to travel offers the opportunity to slow down and take part in something genuine, meaningful and real. Avoiding what has become a part of modern tourism and package tours, Latin Excursions instead seeks out experiences that resonate with local life, and are carried out on a more relaxed rhythm. Focusing on the genuine passion of local characters who bring alive their world, as well as highly trained guides who are enthusiastic about sharing their culture with guests, a Latin Excursions travel program provides an unforgettable journey.

“Each day we woke up knowing that the day would be completely different then yesterday and full of a high quality experience,” say past Latin Excursions clients.
