Peru, Chile and Bolivia on Sunday proposed to create a regional mega tour circuit linking tourist sites in 18 cities in these countries.

The proposal was put forward by representatives attending an Andean and Central Pacific Region Commonwealth meeting in Arequipa, Peru.

Commonwealth technical secretary Angel Vizcarra said participants agreed to create a route to showcase tourist attractions in each and all of these cities.

The proposal will be submitted to a meeting of mayors in March, according to the secretary.

Mayors of these cities will meet in the second week of March to discuss the proposal, said Vizcarra.

Vizcarra said the secretariat of the commonwealth would start working on the technical aspects of the plan if it gained approval.
