From our very first contact with Frank from Pelecanus, we knew we’d struck gold. Frank is our direct contact and knows everything about Colombia from personal experience — no German agency commissioning a large local agency.

We have just finished an extremely enjoyable visit to Colombia organised by Frank Spitzer from PELECANUS SAS. Everything was perfect and well structured. It was a pleasure dealing with Frank from day 1.
