EL OTRO LADO, PORTOBELO BAY

THE SOUNDS OF WILDLIFE

Lie in your hammock with a frivolous book and don’t even bother to read. Listen, with your eyes half closed, to the world receding away. Play the ear-stretching game. How far can you hear? The tinkle of the ice in your glass, of course. Children playing down on the beach. Birds calling to each other in distant treetops. The sounds of wildlife in the nearby National Park, carried over on the breeze. At El Otro Lado, guests are counted in single figures. So you’ll have space and peace aplenty to let go of the everyday, and begin to luxuriate in this luxury boutique hotel nestling on the edge of a beautiful sandy bay, surrounded by the exuberant flora and fauna of the National Park of Portobelo.

“A TRIP OF A LIFETIME, PERFECTLY PLANNED”

Dear Claire, our trip was 100% amazing. We fell in love with Chile. I love how we were introduced to all of the different parts of the country. Our family was engaged in all of the fun from beginning to end. The lodges were just perfection. I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I really appreciate all you did to make our trip a trip of a lifetime.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”

We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91�� – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”

This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.
