Port agents dedicated to the cruise industry in Argentina and South America
Contact UsOne of the biggest challenges for any cruise line in South America is finding an agent who fully understands the operational needs and requirements of their ships. A translation of rules, regulations and the ability to take care of financial transactions on the ship's behalf are not enough. At GPS we speak your language, loud and clear!
Choosing a port agent in Argentina is about creating a partnership with someone you can trust. The maze of documentation, regulations, fees and taxes change constantly and therefore it is important to have a local partner who can keep you up to date with costs for each cruise call so that planning for the future and budgets can be made accurately.
GPS may be a relatively young company but it is backed by a wealth of experience in the cruise industry with her sister company, Shorexplorations, being at the forefront of shore excursions, tour operations and ground handling operations in South America since 2009. With offices in Argentina, Brazil and Chile handling cruise ships in over 50 ports, Shorexplorations and the "lighthouse" logo are synonymous with professionalism and reliability throughout the region.
Here at Global Premier Shipping we are committed to the future of Argentina and South America as a cruise destination. We look to the long term when working with our cruise partners and to the development of strong lasting relationships.
