Hola Todos / Hi All

We have selected 3 top class agents to offer you the trip of a lifetime to see Argentina and join in the international celebrations of our son and argentine’s hero William Brown.

All of the agents have great experience. We have made no deals for the Admiral Brown Society so all of the costs are to the travel agents involved. We are very excited about the amount of interest shown and now that the packages are together please don’t waste any time and get your booking done asap. The weather will be really excellent, the people so welcoming and of course the country is really spectacular. Lots of extra trips and options are available so chose what suits you best.

I recommend the trip to Mendoza and the Iguaçu falls and a day in Colonia [Uruguay] where brown is also a hero.

Looking forward to seeing you all

JJ
