Our guide, Helen, was absolutely awesome. She had lots of information that she delivered with humor and charm. She was patient and let us take extra time for photos. We were lucky to have a group of interesting people with us. The itinerary was comprehensive for the amount of time we had. Helen recommended good restaurants for the lunch break. The winery we visited on the way back was a beautiful property and there was no sales pressure to buy. I highly recommend this excursion.

YiGrace_S, May 2024

Awesome day trip out of Santiago. Pablo was truly wonderful, so full of energy and knowledge. He even went above and beyond and took photographs of our group . The hotel pick up and drops off were smooth . The lunch stop in Valparaiso was delicious. Great experience

A wonderful tour with our excellent guide Pablo

Eileah_P, May 2024

Pablo was so engaging! The sea lions were a wonderful suprise. LOVED the homemade alfajores! THEE best dessert I've had this trip. Loved all the street art. Lunch portions were HUGE: definitely share. The sopapillos were also excellent.

Chile Day Trip

Johnny_H, May 2024

Awesome day trip out of Santiago, Chile: they picked us up from our airbnb in the city and drove our group to Valparaíso and Viña del Mar and a winery at the end. Our guide Miguel was the best ever he knows so much about the area and is very helpful at answering questions and is super nice. Great experience while in Chile.

Hiighly Reccomended

Oscar_B, May 2024

Great guide from Pablo and great experience. Everything went as described and as scheduled. Thanks..

Great tour

Sean_H, May 2024

Great tour hosted by Pablo and Don Luis , lots of things to see and spreads out the journey so it never feels like you are traveling too much

Lots of sights but quick stops

BANI_S, May 2024

Saw a lot but many of the stops felt fast. Pablo was very funny and knowledgeable. The wine stop with the llamas was fun, but also fast.

Great trip to Vina del Mar and Valparaiso

LapTatArthur_W, Apr 2024

The trip to Vina del Mar and Valparaiso was enjoyable. It was well organized. The transportation was good and Pablo is a great tour guide.

Sweet Tour

Michael_P, Apr 2024

Miguel was excellente! Very knowledgeable and entertaining. Especially fine was the winery's tour and explanation.

Ok Tour

Jay_F, Apr 2024

Nice to get out of Santiago for a bit. Tour a bit longer than ideally needed. Stopping at fish market with fishermen all around trying to work seemed a bit inappropriate. Second part with wine tasting seemed a bit too short.

Valparaiso mural art was...

Peter_T, Apr 2024

Valparaiso mural art was inspiring. Best part of the day was the truly excellent work (and play) by our guide Nacho. I’ve traveled in more than 70 countries and done many tours, and Nacho is in the top 1% of all the guides I’ve had over the years.

Excellent way to start a holiday in Santiago!

QueAh_G, Apr 2024

What a start to my one week holiday in Santiago! Beautiful Valparaiso explained by such knowledge and fun tour guide Nacho. I was not expecting the wine tour at the end so that was an excellent surprise! Highly recommended!

You must have this trip, unforgettable experience ❣️

Rafaelia_P, Apr 2024

Valparaiso was an absolute delight, made even more memorable by the incredible expertise of our tour guide Nachos! His passion for the city’s history and graffiti’s brought every street corner to life, weaving tales of its colorful past with unparalleled enthusiasm. Nachos not only guided us through the winding streets but also fueled our curiosity with fascinating anecdotes and insights. Moreover, Don Carlos, ensured a smooth ride, allowing us to enjoy every moment of Valparaiso’s charm. This trip was an unforgettable experience. Thank you Nachos for your dedication, knowledge, and warmth. Valparaiso shines brighter because of you!

Great tour with Helen!

Tiffany_T, Apr 2024

This was a great tour! I enjoyed getting to see so much in a single day trip. Helen was a great guide and very knowledgeable. I really enjoyed this tour and seeing so much of Valparaiso, and especially having the pastel de choclo at La Conquistada, per Helen’s recommendation!

Wish we had more time in Valparaiso

Sarah_M, Apr 2024

Our tour guide Steve was truly wonderful, so full of energy and knowledge. He even went above and beyond and took photographs of our group. We had a full group but it still felt intimate. The hotel pick up and drop offs were smooth. I appreciated the variety of stops that we made and all the sights we got to take in. The lunch stop in Valparaiso was delicious. The only thing I would change is that I wish we had spent more time exploring Valparaiso. It felt like we had only walked down a few streets. In all honesty the vineyard stop didn't do much for me and if you weren't interested in buying wine then you felt kind of stuck there. I would have preferred a tour that removed that stop and spent more time seeing and learning about Valparaiso.

Excellent tour of Vina Del Mar and Valparaiso!

Doris_N, Apr 2024

Pablo was an excellent guide and pulled our group of 13 together easily, encouraging participation and camaraderie. It was a very fun day with lunch in Valparaiso (on our own but with the group) and we stopped at a beautiful winery on our way back to Santiago where we tasted a Carmenere wine, which is the grape that was once thought to be a Merlot. A really great tour and a great day! Thanks, Pablo!

Not the wonderful city that I expected

Christian_R, Apr 2024

Valparaiso has seen its days. Some parts of this city are nice, others are not worth visiting. I only give 3Stars for some reasons. Booked this trip including hotel pickup. I contacted several times the agency. Impossible to get an answer. The ticket said 8am. Was sitting in the lobby, nobody showed up. Tried again several times, even contacted Viator. At 9.30am the guide showed up to tell me that they sent several messages. However, none of those messages got through to me (used the wrong phone number) and also the agency did not answer(email). I was very angry. Sat in the lobby since 7.45am. Valparaiso is not that interesting. Historically important in the 19th century, I was disappointed. Glad that I did the tour (like in many other countries) but would I revisit? No. Like one if those cities where you say „ been there, seen it , done it“

Informative, comfortable and fun

Kate_D, Apr 2024

What an EXCELLENT tour! Our guide Miguel and our driver Israel really made the day easy, comfortable and extremely interesting. Any question we asked was easily answered and Miguel has such a varied knowledge on Chilean and local history, local areas of interest and more! We explored the city at a comfortable pace but were still able to see plenty and actually much more than we expected. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you're only in Santiago for a short time and want to see the surrounds.

Good visit to Valpo

Laurie_D, Apr 2024

Overall, the tour was good. Could have skipped the fish market. It was not a value added stop. Appreciate the lunch options and time spend in Valpo.

Great tour to the coast!

Selena_T, Apr 2024

Steve the tour guide is the best! This tour was very organized and Steve made it very enjoyable and entertaining. I went on this tour by myself. Oscar the driver maneuver around traffic like a ninja.
