Touri is the live layer of Latin American tourism — a last-minute tour marketplace connecting travelers with independent local guides. Browse tours available today, make a price offer, and hear back from a guide in minutes. Pricing is negotiated directly between traveler and guide, not set months in advance.
We watched brilliant guides in Mexico City lose bookings every weekend — not because their tours weren't good, but because fixed-rate platforms don't leave room to negotiate. So we built one that does.
Latin America runs on independent guides. People with decades of knowledge. Existing platforms weren't built for them. We're fixing that, city by city.
We hold these. Most platforms don't. And this is roughly how it worked before they got involved.
The best travel moments don't come pre-packaged. They come when you leave room in your plan for something real to surprise you.
Touri shows you what's on right now. Find something, make an offer, go.
Travel is live. A guide has spare seats. You have a free afternoon, but the list price doesn't quite work. Fixed prices make that a dead end. Negotiation makes that the start of a conversation.
Before platforms, this is how it worked. Negotiation, in person, with room to move. We didn't invent it. We brought it back online.
The guide is why a good trip became a great trip. Most platforms don't get that. They charge 20–30% commissions, plus add-ons to move up the rankings.
On Touri, guides own their price — set it, adjust it live, and keep more of what they earn. That's the deal.
Booking platforms were built for inventory — flights, rooms, rental cars. A tour isn't inventory. It's a person with a plan.

People are flexible. Listings aren't.
Guides set a minimum for every tour, so you can't offer below what they're willing to consider. And when you make an offer, Touri shows you how strong it is. You're never guessing.
A half-full tour earns more than an empty one. Last-minute, your offer covers a spot that would otherwise go unfilled. Guides have already covered their costs, so it's better to take you for less than not at all.
No. Most guides on Touri work in English. And making an offer doesn't require a word — you submit a number, they respond. That's the whole exchange before you go.
No. It's for travelers who want a price that reflects what the tour is actually worth — right now, today. Sometimes that's below a platform's list price. It's not a discount. It's just the right price.
You're not haggling at a market. There's no pressure, no awkward back-and-forth. You name a number. The guide says yes, counters, or passes. One exchange. Then you decide.
