Free Shipping on Orders over $50Collette Vacations unveiled a journey through Chile and Argentina for 2010 that features wine tastings at bodegas, a tango lesson and show in Buenos Aires, a home-hosted dinner, and a train ride aboard Chile’s famous wine train, the Tren del Vino, a 1913 coal-fired locomotive.

In addition, Collette has selected a November departure of this tour to feature in an upcoming video blog that visitors to the company’s website will be able to access and view.

Sights and attractions like the tango lesson and performance, a cable car ride in Santiago, wine tours and tastings on the Los Caminos del Vino wine route, and highlights from a Porteños tour of the Argentine capital,

Buenos Aires, will be videotaped and photographed with accompanying commentary by Collette employees who will be on tour as special guest passengers.

“The genesis for launching what we have dubbed a Reality Tour is simply to give travel agents and their clients, who might be considering a first-time vacation to South America, a glimpse into what they can expect,” said Melissa Famiglietti Snape, executive vice president of product, Collette.

As more and more travelers embrace video-based sites like YouTube and read travel blogs as a way to research a destination,

Collette’s Reality Tours will combine the components of video and photojournalism into one medium.

Collette cites advantages like a favorable currency exchange, minimal jet lag, and the diversity of natural and cultural attractions as reasons why travel to South America is up when more traditionally popular destinations are down or flat. In addition, a moderate climate means South America is an ideal getaway for North Americans looking to escape the winter cold.
