Kannak Strengthens Its Presence in Latin America with New Website, 2025 Programming
Kannak, the tour operator of the World2Meet group and part of the Iberostar Group’s travel division, is making strides in the Latin American market with the launch of its dedicated website for the region.
This platform features customized itineraries tailored to Latin American travelers and provides specialized business contacts for travel agencies in key countries, including Argentina, Chile, Mexico, and Colombia.
A Growing Presence in Latin America
Since its entry into the market in March, Kannak has focused on expanding its reach, particularly in Colombia, where direct flights between Cali and Madrid operated by World2Fly have bolstered visibility for European travel circuits. According to Malik Alkarea, Kannak's Commercial Director, "Our direct connections with Spain are increasing demand among Latin American travelers, highlighting Europe as a top destination."
Highlighted Itineraries for Latin America
Kannak’s offerings include:
- Classic Europe: A 15-day tour visiting cities such as Madrid, Bordeaux, and Paris.
- Classic Italy: A 7-day exploration of Italy’s cultural and historical highlights.
- Grand Tour of the Netherlands: An 8-day circuit focused on Amsterdam and its surroundings.
- The Best of Spain: A 10-day journey showcasing Spain’s cultural gems.
New additions to Kannak's catalogue include destinations like Turkey, Slovenia, Puglia, the Amalfi Coast, and Madeira. Alongside more than 40 countries in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia, less conventional destinations such as Uzbekistan and Albania have gained popularity in 2024, reflecting growing traveler interest in unique experiences.
Expansion Plans for 2025
Kannak aims to cement its position as a leading tour operator in Latin America. The company plans to launch specific website versions for Brazil and Portugal, making its offerings more accessible. Additionally, its three service categories—Authentic, Design, and Freedom—allow travelers to tailor their experiences:
- Authentic: Over 100 content-rich organized circuits.
- Design: Experiential, relaxed tours with more than 40 circuits.
- Freedom: Fully personalized and private travel experiences.

The launch of the direct flight between Cali and Madrid has been pivotal in boosting demand for European itineraries. Kannak’s plans for 2025 focus on consolidating its presence in major Latin American markets, such as Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina, while expanding its offerings to cater to a diverse range of travelers.
A Commitment to Personalization and Exploration
