Collette to spotlight Chile & Argentina small-group tour at virtual event

Collette is extending its Tour Series with a new virtual session for travel advisors, set for Feb. 19 at 12 p.m. ET.

Hosted by Kelsie Marchetti, the event features an interview with Sam Kern, the designer behind Collette’s Explorations small-group tour through Chile and Argentina.

Collette says the session will give advisors a closer look at how its tours are built and how to position the itinerary for clients looking for more immersive travel. 

The discussion is expected to cover:

• Who the tour is designed for, including the traveller profile best suited to a small-group format
• How smaller groups can change the on-the-ground experience, including cultural access
• Which inclusions are designed to connect guests to local life, from food traditions to community encounters
• How the itinerary moves across Chile and Argentina, including pacing and the balance between exploration and downtime

“Explorations is built for travellers who want to feel the heartbeat of a destination,” said Kern. 

“This itinerary brings them closer to culture in a way that’s personal, authentic, and unforgettable.”

Marchetti will lead the conversation with the goal of giving advisors clear, practical selling points—how the tour flows, what differentiates it, and how to present it to clients seeking deeper cultural engagement.

Registration is now open, and Collette says an on-demand version will be available to those who register but can’t attend live. 

The company also noted it has additional advisor tools available through its Travel Advisor Portal.
