According to the German Latin America Association (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Lateinamerika)*, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Costa Rica and Mexico are now amongst the top Latin American destinations for German tourists.
Ecuador's participation in the 2006 German hosted World Cup has awoken growing interest in the country, with the total number of German tourists in Ecuador rising from 25,000 in 2005 to 27,500 in 2006.
