Planning trips across multiple countries in South America doesn’t have to be complicated.

For over 40 years, Blumar has worked with carefully selected DMC partners throughout the region, building a network grounded in trust, expertise, and shared standards of excellence.

From these long-standing relationships with DMCs aligned in values and vision — Alchemy in Argentina and Chile; Coltur in Peru; and Colombian Journeys in Colombia — Terra Sur was born.

Terra Sur is more than an alliance — it is an integrated and efficient way to design, manage, and operate multi-country itineraries across South America. It brings together the strength of leading local DMCs under a single structure while preserving what matters most: deep local knowledge and operational autonomy.

Each partner remains fully responsible for its own operations, ensuring quality, authenticity, and excellence in execution at every destination.

At the heart of Terra Sur is a true one-stop-shop service, designed to simplify your workflow. From the initial inquiry to final confirmation, all communication is handled by a single dedicated representative — a regional specialist backed by the full expertise of each local DMC.

This approach prevents miscommunication between countries and keeps the entire process clear and efficient. There are no additional fees for this service: pricing remains competitive and transparent, with each partner directly managing its own operations.

By keeping everything simple and streamlined, we ensure a smoother experience for you and your clients. We are by your side every step of the way.
