PRESS RELEASE FOR SANTIAGO CITY TOUR PODCAST (VTT)
During October of 2008, Marcelo Mackinnon, a Santiago based travel writer, took hundreds of digital photographs of the most important areas and landmarks of Santiago, the Chilean capital. The photographs and descriptive script was converted into an audiovisual podcast that is now being distributed in DVD, Ipod, MP3 and cell phone format by Visual Travel Tours of Santa Barbara, California, USA. (www.visualtraveltours.com ).
The main inspiration for Mackinnon´s work was to promote a city that is becoming one of South America’s most visited tourist destinations.
The 30 minute podcast will guide visitors, be they cruise ship passengers, business travelers or backpackers in a confortable walking tour around Santiago’s central business district, known locally as “El Centro”. Included in the podacast are spectacular high altitude views of the city from the top of Santa Lucia and San Cristobal hills, both of which are near to 3000 feet above sea level.
