Yampu Tours, winner of the 2010 World Travel Awards as South America’s leading Tour Operator, unveils today itineraries that include new direct flights from LAN Airline. These direct flights run from Lima, Peru to Iguazu, Brazil and from Lima, Peru to Easter Island, Chile. Among other benefits, the new flights will reduce travelers’ expenses and the amount of time spent transferring from one destination to another.

The flight from Lima to the Brazilian side of Iguazu Falls has already begun to operate and runs every Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. The flight from Lima to Chile’s remote Easter Island will begin operation in February 2012 operating every Sunday and Wednesday. “We are very excited about these new direct LAN flights,” affirms Yampu Tours co-founder Monica Irauzqui. “At Yampu we specialize in customized itineraries that combine several different countries. With the use of these new LAN flights, we are able to more efficiently transfer our clients allowing them more time in these sought after destinations.” The new direct flight from Lima to Iguazu is especially exciting for Yampu Tours. The Tour Operator Company has several itineraries from Peru to Brazil, many of which visit both the Brazilian and the Argentinean side of the Falls. The new direct flight from Lima to Iguazu, Brazil will help to promote the added benefits of visiting both sides.

Yampu has several customized itineraries that include a combination of these wonders of South America: Machu Picchu, Iguazu Falls, and Easter Island. With the addition of the new direct flights, Easter Island can now easily be accessed by a brief 4 ½ hour flight from Lima, Peru. The addition of Chile’s remote Easter Island to Peruvian itineraries allows for a highly unique and culturally encompassing tour that combines the various cultures of Peru with the distinctive culture of Easter Island.

With over 13 years of experience in the industry, Yampu Tours specializes in customized itineraries in Central and South America. Always attentive to individualized client needs, Yampu Tours hopes that with the new LAN Airlines direct flights clients will continue to have enriched experiences in South America.
