Visiting Santiago de Chile was a great experience , we went there on September 16 -24-23, In these days Chile commemorate their independence and it takes three days Or sometimes takes one week. there are a lot of activities around the city like the chilean day at the Parque O'Higgins, where you enjoy Chilean rodeo, groups dancing la cueca the official dance from Chile, I also enjoyed drinks like chicha, pisco sour is very good, food like empanadas, barbecue that is excellent and good flavor ect.. Also, the cathedral, the government building are closed but you can enjoy the beautiful architecture, on September 19, there is Army parade, at the Palace of La Moneda there is a presentation of the traditional dance la cueca Tips: If you visit Chile on these Independent dates be aware that all malls, restaurants and stores are close. The PDI Immigration paper keep it like your ID because you have to show it at the hotel. Always carry an extra sweater because sometimes gets very cloudy and cold due to the Andes mountain. specially after 3pm. The best neighborhood to stay is Vitacura. I recommend Hilton Hotel its near de mall, train station, the observatory building and restaurants.

Amazing wine tasting. Good guide and very professional team. I preferred the first visite to the farm where we had a very nice appetizer

Nice small tour. Supposed to begin at 8am, but night prior was told pickup would be at 9am, but received another text about a delay so it didn’t start until 9:40am, which through our schedule for the rest of the day off. Your guide was nice and knowledgeable but not fluent in English. Just a drive and highlights of important areas. It wasn’t worth the $75 they charged for what was offered. You are better off booking the hop-on-hop-off bus with Turistik and buying a city guide.

This has been hard to review. The whole trip was marred, for us, by the guide’s either inexperience or lack of training. We were picked up on time and in total were a group of 13. Whilst the guide was very friendly and had a bubbly personality, she did not deliver on meeting our expectations. We were surprised first of all at how little information she gave us apart from the main features. Next we didn’t realise she was going to be providing commentary in both Spanish and English. This took away any spontaneity and interaction with the guide. It also meant by the time she told us about a feature it was past. She did not provide any incidental information either, that’s such a shame as that is what you want, history, local culture etc. We stopped at a winery. Why? She gave no explanation and left us to wander around. No wine tasting. No information from anyone at the vineyard. She was there to purchase wine for us to have later in the day. Back on the coach and up the spectacular windy road with so many hairpin bends. No chat about how the road was formed etc. The Inca Lake is breathtaking in its beauty. Fantastic. By this time it’s after midday and we were hungry. I asked where we could grab lunch, and she strongly dissuaded us from using the hotel restaurant because it was very expensive. We did anyway and it was excellent view and quick service. Price was reasonable for the location and quality. Back on the coach. Stopped at a place for an empanada and the wine tasting. The place was OK but nothing special. Wine was lovely. Empanada ok. Rest of the journey in silence until we reached our hotel. I think her intentions were there, it was just hard in two languages and you lose half the audience each time.

This tour was amazing! Nacho, our tour guide was fantastic and made the experience a ton of fun. The wineries we visited were great and provided some delicious tastings. Again, Nacho really made the tour for us, he was so knowledgable, friendly and knew how to break the ice so everyone could socialize and have a great time.

Our guide Miguel was amazing! He deserves a raise. However - this tour was a waste of money. You pay almost $100 US to have maybe 1 bottle of wine between the 3 vineyards. They then take you to a very expensive Vinyard for lunch with mediocre food not worth the price. If you are spending well-earned time and money, spend it on a more rewarding tour, like the Valparaiso day tour from Santiago.

We really enjoyed this tour! The company is organized and everything ran on schedule. We got to see 3 different types of wineries from a quaint boutique winery to a beautiful mid sized winery to a large estate wine property. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The wine selections were fantastic and the place we stopped at for lunch was delicious! Maipo Valley is gorgeous!

Great wine, good people, nice views, and fun day to from Santiago. We had expert guides, and some of the best wine I've ever tasted. Highly recommend.

Great wine tour close to Santiago that shows many aspects of wine making, from the tiny boutique winery La Quirinca to the large scale estate Undurraga Wines. Big thanks to our wonderful, entertaining guide Marilu, who made the tour informative and fun!

I thoroughly enjoyed this whole day wine tour. 4 stops. Never boring. Wine and lunch really good. It was beyond my expectation. Maria-Luisa you were a blast. So funny, keep us entertained. Love the Chilean music you shared. Benjamin is an awesome driver. Thanks to keeping us safe, anyone thinking of joining this tour, be sure to get this dynamic duo. 😃

The tour was a great experience within the Maipo Isle region. From experiencing a small family run organic winery using traditional winemaking methods and to subsequently larger operations (with long family history in winemaking) the guides and operators did an amazing tour. In a full day there was lots of historical and geographical information. Of course, it was all about wine and tasting (which was very good), the added presentation at each winery of their methods and philosophy of wine making were an added bonus. Lots of purple smiles in the group at the end of the trip!

It’s an unusually cold day in Santiago in the summer but I’m so glad I signed up to this tour which really brightened the day - Nacho was fantastic and we get to visit 4 distinct vineyards with lots of tasting and delicious food. It’s a small cosy tour that everyone gets to mingle and socialise and as a solo traveler i thoroughly enjoyed it!

A great trip to some interesting and beautiful vineyards, great wines were had and our guide Miguel was absolutely fantastic! So knowledgeable and nice in every way!

From pick up to drop off, this tour was phenomenal. A great chance to see different Maipo Valley wine production from all stages (small family vineyard to large production). Our guide, Catalina (Cata) was so informative, helpful, and kind. We arrival to Santiago was delayed and although we only had about 2 hours of sleep before pickup, we are thankful we didn't skip this tour!

This was overall a great experience! My partner and I went on this tour and it included 6 others in our direct group, and about 10 others in another group. I have a few recommendations for those booking this tour: (1) wear closed toe, comfortable sneakers as you will be walking the grounds of wineries and there may be some mud, (2) the tour companies communicate via WhatsApp and it works really well in case you want to download this app before arriving in Santiago (3) eat breakfast and hydrate before the tour, lunch was around 1 for us. It is a long day and there are excellent wines to indulge in on this tour. We booked our tour about a month in advance and received a confirmation pretty quickly afterward. Our scheduled tour was on a Sunday and received a WhatsApp message for hotel pick up time about 12 hours before the start of tour, Saturday at around 8 PM local time in Santiago. This practice seems normal for the tours here, so do not fret if you haven't received a pick up notification until the night before your tour. Our pick up was right on time. Emanuel was our guide and he made the day very enjoyable. We first went to a lookout point in Maipo. It was a nice start to our trip, really pretty views of the valley. Then, went to the first winery, La Quirinca which is on a farm. Be prepared for the farm smell here. It was pretty cool to see the farm animals ( chickens, geese, turkeys, alpacas, horses, and adorable dog) and you get the chance to feed a few. The wine tasting featured two of their wines, Carmenere and Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as some samples of pisco. It was a really fun, unique experience here. Then, we went to Santa Ema, my favorite winery of the tour, tasted 4 wines and walked the grounds. The buildings and landscapes were very pretty and modern, and the wine was very good. Next, we went to lunch at Vina TerraMater restaurant at their winery and featured their wine to pair with food. Our favorite was the Altum Carmenere. The food overall was pretty good. Lastly, we went to Underraga where we walked their large beautiful grounds with a guided tour. The tasting was at the end and featured 4 wines. My favorite was the Sauvignon Blanc. This tour was such a fun way to experience the Chilean countryside, and drink delicious wines.
