MARCH 16, 2007 Boutique Journeys: Inspired Tours to Authentic Destinations
Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, March 16 2007 – For some, the word "tour"
is a turn-off, conjuring up images of colorful t-shirts, megaphones
and all-inclusive buffet lines. Mexico Boutique Hotels and Journey
Mexico—both trusted experts in the luxury travel industry—have taken
that concept and turned it on its head. Their joint venture, Boutique
Journeys, is a collection of inspired travels that allow their clients
to experience the best of Mexico surrounded by the luxury to which
they are accustomed.
Through this important new alliance, Mexico Boutique Hotels can offer
a more complete menu of services to guests who wish to discover more
than one destination. "Through this partnership with Journey
Mexico—well-known purveyors of unique cultural and wilderness tours
throughout this fascinating country—we're adding another level of
service for our clients," said John Youden, General Director of Mexico
Boutique Hotels. "Now they will be able to experience Mexico through
our unique lodgings and visits to neighboring destinations—all the
while cocooned in luxury and exquisite service."
True to its name, Boutique Journeys will only escort small groups,
providing each one with incredibly flexible itineraries and highly
personalized services. The first two journeys are to the heart of
Mexico, highlighting colonial beauties and their environs. The first
begins in Mexico City, one of the world's most fascinating cities,
then winds its way through the Bajío to Querétaro, Mineral de Pozos,
Guanajuato, Lagos de Moreno and Guadalajara. Along the way, patrons
stay in Mexico Boutique Hotels' gem-like accommodations, such as La
Casa de la Marquesa and Quinta Las Acacias. The second circuit begins
in Guadalajara, the most Mexican of cities, home to mariachis, tequila
and charros. From there, stops include Pátzcuaro and Morelia, a city
of pink granite buildings, steeped in culture and history. Villa Ganz,
La Mansión de los Sueños and Los Juaninos play host. Accepting groups
from only two to 11 persons at the most, Boutique Journeys carefully
plans these itineraries to allow guests to truly enjoy the best these
cities has to offer, from restaurants to sights to marvelous
accommodations. Prices begin at approximately US$2,600.00 per person
for a 9-day itinerary FIT, or US$2,900.00 per person, for a fully
escorted tour. Beach extensions to Mexico Boutique Hotel properties on
either the Pacific or the Caribbean can be added.
