For those who are looking for accommodation in the city of São Paulo, for the second year in a row WTM Latin America is maintaining its partnership with HotelMap, which offers the most advanced hotel reservation technology along with additional benefits, namely discounts on all types of accommodation and greater ease in relation to making reservations, in addition to access to other users’ comments and opinions. All you need to do is to access the event’s website in the menu Visit – Accommodation.
Another benefit offered is the ease of commuting within the city during the days of the event, with two options: for those who wish to go by car, the partnership with Avis, the car rental company, will offer a 10% discount for reservations with payment at the destination and a 12% discount in the case of prepayment made directly on Avis’ website, by the link using the code: L226300
For those who prefer to go by tube, the event’s organizers will be offering free shuttle buses to and from Expo Center Norte, during the three days, starting one hour before the event opens and continuing until one hour after the event closes. The shuttle buses will leave from the GARAGE INN parking lot, on Rua Voluntários da Pátria, 344 (next to Portuguesa-Tietê station on the number 1 tube line – Blue and from the Tietê bus terminal).
For Thais Del Ben, WTM Latin America’s marketing manager, “the partnerships with companies that are references in the travel, hospitality and car rental sectors are key to ensuring that those taking part are able to relax and feel safe, as well as providing them with greater ease and flexibility to organize their agendas.”
The agreements with the partner companies were established by Reed Travel Exhibitions (RTE), which is the world leader in the area of organizing travel and tourism events, with a growing portfolio of more than 22 international trade events in the Americas, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
