Chile launches new overseas tourism campaign

A new campaign of Chile’s for international tourism promotion has been launched by the Subsecretaría de Turismo and Turismo Chile, the institution responsible for the promotion of Chile in international markets.

This new campaign was launched in parallel in Sao Paulo, as part of the events at World Travel Market Latin America.

WTM is one of the largest tourist events in the world and is held annually in the city of London.

This is the first version of the trade show in Latin America.

Geographical, climatic and cultural contrasts play a fundamental role in this campaign, which promotes the diversity of activities in which to take part in Chile, such as trekking in the Parque Nacional Torres del Paine national park, one of the best nature destinations in the world, rafting down rivers surrounded by ancient forests and towering volcanoes, skiing the best slopes in the continent with the Andes as a backdrop, or experiencing the ancient culture of Rapa Nui on the remote Easter Island.

The images within the new promotional materials seek for a way of communication that is more focused on the traveller’s experience of the landscape and use, in addition, messages with humour and irony in order to engage a more diverse audience, conveying the essence of the local culture.

Furthermore, it is based on the framework of the plan to promote Chile abroad, which has six experiences: Natural Inspiration, Adventure and Sport, Culture and Heritage, Flavours and Wine, Health and Wellbeing, and Urban Life.

Under secretary for tourism, Jacqueline Plass, said: “This new campaign we are launching today to promote Chile abroad aims to directly captivate foreigners that are resident in strategic markets, and is focused towards the emotional aspects while also exhibiting the different experiences and landscapes on offer to visitors in Chile.”

The new image will start to be exhibited in all the markets that have been established as priorities: Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Germany, France, Spain, England, the USA, Mexico and Australia.

It will be used for promotion in print media, online social networks and in public spaces.
