La Merced del Alto Hotel Cachi

Mar 01 2011
Filed In: Cachi, Salta

La Merced del Alto Hotel | Cachi, Salta, Argentina | La Merced del Alto Hotel is located in Cachi, a charming small town approximately 3 hours away from the city of Salta in Argentina. I was there a year ago and fell completely in love with this area, the fantastic boutique Hotel and over all the culture, the people, the food and of course the wine. It is truly a shame that at that time I did not have the camera I have now, to capture more in depth the soul and colors of the area, the textures and its people.

Simon C. Customer Feedback

Filed In: Customer Feedback

Simon C. Customer Feedback | United States | Hi Carlos, Thanks for arranging the Private City Tour of Buenos Aires. Everything was great. Nicholas and Maximo make a great team. We learnt so much about the city, it gave us a great over-view of the city and it’s areas. It was informative, concise, great fun and ran perfectly to time. Both Nicholas and Maximo were very personable and chatty and very well informed. All in all it was fabulous.

My trip to Argentina, Uruguay and the Rio de la Plata region, thanks to Carlos Melia’s outstanding organizational skills, went off without a hitch. We trusted him with everything and relied on him to make sure we saw Buenos Aires as it is meant to be eperienced; he hit all the right notes and we were never disappointed. It was like a well-executed Tango.

Carlos Melia Touring around EUROPE

Sep 16 2010
Filed In: Buenos Aires, Carlos Melia

Dear friends and followers, sorry I have been away for all this last few days. I have been touring around Europe together with the Tourism Office of Buenos Aires, promoting and putting together Press Conferences and Press Dinners to promote and communicate ” Buenos Aires Diverse “. Buenos Aires is welcoming the GLBT community to visit our beautiful city. The passing of the Gay Marriage Law has put Buenos Aires and the rest of Argentina, back in the spot and we are here to share with you all the other highlights and wonders that our city has to offer. We have been already in Madrid ( SEP 13th ), Barcelona ( SEP 15th. ) and now Zurich ( SEP 17th. ). Still to come Paris where we will be hosting a Gay Press Dinner at LE GEORGE Restaurant at the Pompidou Centre. ( photo above: ME at the Terrace of the AXEL Hotel Buenos Aires, Press Dinner at the SKY Bar & Restaurant by CM by Carlos Melia and the Tourism Office of Buenos Aires ).
