Our Company
Over a quarter of a century ago two school-teachers, whom fate and a love of Latin America brought together in Rio, hit on a ground-breaking idea - to organise economy group holidays to their favourite continent. With personalities and even a world-view at notable variance, Chris Parrott and Brian Williams nevertheless blazed a trail which many have since sought to follow. The two-man, one-telephone outfit of the eighties is now a thriving - but still completely independent - company whose 80 specialist staff offer a full range of travel services, exclusively to Latin America.
When the company was still in its infancy, a raw new graduate of Spanish began work with us as a tour leader, a Latin America enthusiast with limitless energy and a huge smile. Sarah Bradley left us for a while to hone her management skills but the "umbilical cord" which keeps so many of our staff with us for so long proved too strong and she returned in 2004 as Managing Director to bring bold new ideas to complement her vast knowledge of Ibero-America. This has been a palpable benefit to all of us at the company and, by extension, to all our clients.
