Press Release Summary: Eric Sheets, founder of Latin Excursions, a luxury travel
company, has been enlisted in Travel+Leisure's A-list for the 4th consecutive year.
Latin Excursions offers a new vision of South America travel.

Press Release Body: Miami Beach, FL - October 5, 2008:

Eric Sheets, president and founder of luxury travel company Latin Excursions
(http://www.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.

Latin Excursions is a boutique travel company dedicated to arranging luxury
adventures for its clients. Highly trained travel consultants pride themselves on
their personal touch, working closely with travelers to prepare itineraries that are
aligned with particular interests and requests. Consultants have visited the
destinations, and with regional offices in South America, have access to the best
land partners in each location. Specializing in the Galapagos Islands, along with
destinations throughout South America like Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Peru, Latin
Excursions announces its focus on providing clients with understated, unique luxury
travel.

From families, to honeymooners, large groups and active travelers looking for luxury
and that personal touch, Latin Excursions is the premier option.
