Ensemble and Australis Cruises Announce Alliance

Ensemble Travel Group and Australis Cruises report a new partnership that will expand the Chile-based expedition cruise line’s presence in the North American market. 

Australis ships explore the southernmost regions of South America, including Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego and Cape Horn. From September to April of each year, both the Stella Australis and Via Australis offer a variety of itineraries between Punta Arenas, Chile and Ushuaia, and Argentina

Each cruise is an all-inclusive experience, including all shore excursions on Zodiacs.

The adventure cruise market represents a $345 billion industry and it is critical that Ensemble align itself with partners that can deliver in this profitable travel segment, said Chris Lackstrom, director of supplier and market development, Ensemble.

Ensemble members will be briefed on the new partner at the 2014 Ensemble Travel Group International Conference, Oct. 26-30 in Palm Springs.
