Itinerary
- 1The Park has an extension of more than 120 hectares, where you will be able to appreciate the rescue of the native forest typical of the coastal ravines of the central zone of Chile and the imposing block that molds the bottom of the ravines, tracing the silhouette of the park, where you can admire the recovery of wetlands and original fauna of the area. In this privileged environment, various sectors and places have been designed to live recreational, sports and cultural experiences specially designed for our visitors. Spectacular viewpoints, the largest aviary in South America with exotic species integrated in a controlled environment, a replica of the Giverny gardens in France that transports Monet's vision when he painted his most famous works, a white sand beach and circuits of Trekking and cross country are just some of the experiences we want you to enjoy. Then we will visit the potter town of Pomaire to tour its streets with crafts and typical Chilean food

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- edithp8480 contributionsThree great choicesFrom the moment Ricardo picked us up, I knew we were going to have a wonderful day. He basically catered to all of our requests, was very patient and Polite. He took us to this great local restaurant in Pomaire and we were able to taste delicious Chilean food. The time spent at Pablo Neruda’s house was very rewarding and we ended the day at the Undurraga Vineyard, where we tested 4 different wines from their collection. At no time, he showed that he was in a hurry and gave us enough time to spent at each activity. Highly recommended!Written March 20, 2025
- RobertPDX0 contributionsWonderful tripGuide Sergio and driver Rodriguez were very professional and the trip was magnificent. There was a bit of confusion about meals. When we booked, it said meetings were included. But somewhere else said meals were not included. The actual result was that meals were included for us but not for other passengers.Written March 20, 2025
- carloslD7922EW0 contributionsUnforgetableExcellent trip. 100% recomended. The Cajón del Maipo is a wonderfull place where you can feel a fresh air and spend a splendid day.Written March 18, 2025
- Pathfinder3774340 contributionsFantastic tourThe tour "Trekking in the Aconcagua- Park, Laguna del Inca, Portillo" is a fantastic exkperience. With good weather the tour is worth the price and the long drive. The views of Mt. Aconcagua on the 3-hours walking are stunning, spectacular. Our guide Sergio Rodriguez and our driver Riccardo Cabezas did a really good job, Sergio with very good knowledge of English language for the English speaking guests. Thank you for the great tour, we highly recommend it.Written March 18, 2025
- helloitsnaomi0 contributionsFriendly multi lingual guide, great driver, chill day out to Valparaiso and Viña del MarWe have just returned from a great tour with TAC Tourista with our guide Sergio. Booking was done on WhatsApp and picked up on the dot. They send you live tracking when they are on the way. The whole tour we were ahead of other tourists so got some great photos. Sergio gave us lots of information and was happy to chat about any topic. Our group was English and Spanish so he had his work cut out for him! Itinerary highlights: Quick stop for breakfast at a Casablanca winery after about an hour on the road and got to see some llamas. Various stops in Valparaiso and felt like we saw all the highlights - lots of cool graffiti art! And dogs everywhere! Lunch at a beautiful restaurant overlooking the beach in Viña del Mar Bring lots of water as there aren’t many places to refill, and maybe some snacks for the drive. Lunch was around 1pm.Written March 12, 2025
- kle60720 contributionsLocal flavor with charming guideMy husband and I recently took a 3-hour walking tour with Sergio, a local guide who showed us many of the sights in Santiago. We happened to be on this tour at the exact time the huge international woman’s day parade was happening and Sergio had to adapt the tour because of the closed off parts of the city. He showed us a few “extra” things instead and made sure we knew what we had missed, which we really appreciated. His enthusiasm for his hometown was infectious and he motivated us to return the next day to see the things we had missed. It was a pleasure to spend time with a local, especially one who genuinely loves his city. The only thing we wish we had was a map or list of places to refer to (we don’t always have data or WiFi when we travel and this old fashioned way of seeing where we’ve been and where we’re going is a great way to remember the day). Thank you, Sergio!Written March 12, 2025
- D6025GTalif0 contributionsAmazing Casas del Bosque - don't missHerbert Bosques tour took us to Casas Del Bosques vineyard and our English Speaking guide was Christopher. it was a magical half day, Christopher was superb, he simplified and de-snobbed winemaking for us and was so open and transparent about the process, the people, the pricing. The wines are beautiful and so is the vineyard, beautiful gardens, vines, and buildings. Lunch was a huge surprise, similar to a top end restaurant but very affordable pricing. We loved it.Written March 12, 2025
- ColleenCuthbert0 contributionsoverall very bad experienceOverall very bad experience. I would not recommend. Weren't notified until middle of the night that our pick up would be much later than stated on the original tour voucher. Very tourist trap-ish feeling with all the stops and activities feeling very canned. Most stops were very short, not a lot of local history given by the guide, all stops went by vendors on the street. None of the shops in Valparaiso were open. Guide smoked the entire time - so gross. Wasn't able to answer basic questions, seemed like he was just happy to have the tour over with.Written February 28, 2025
- N5668JFvictoriab0 contributionsDissatisfactiedI took a tour to Valparaíso, and the guide seemed inexperienced. The entire experience felt very serious and lacked engagement. The walking tour, which I was looking forward to the most, lasted only 20 minutes, which was quite disappointing. If you have the option to choose another agency with more experience, I would recommend doing so. In my case, the guide did not seem knowledgeable, appeared nervous, and struggled with communication.Written February 24, 2025
- jacqueet0 contributionsGreat way to see Santiago!We thoroughly enjoyed the half-day tour with a very good guide and driver. Piero, our guide, was very knowledgeable about Santiago, its history, its architecture and its culture. The stop at the lapis factory was fun and interesting, with so much gorgeous jewelry! We had a bit of a miscommunication at the end, when he asked us if we wanted lunch and we said yes, so they took us to a recommended restaurant and said goodbye. We were startled to be left there and not returned to the hotel as advertised. It became apparent he had meant we either get dropped off for lunch OR taken back to the hotel. I’m not sure where the miscommunication happened and ultimately we had an excellent meal and Ubered back to our hotel. I highly recommend this tour but be sure you understand where it ends!Written February 24, 2025
- Milo5280 contributionsA wonderful walking tour around the colourful and bonkers ValparaisoTour guide Maria Jose was fab! She was able to move seamlessly between Spanish, English and a sprinkle of Portuguese to keep all 15 guests interested and occupied during the trip. It’s a long day. Our pick up was at 6:20 and we didn’t get breakfast until about 9 so bring a snack. The walking tour around Valparaiso was the highlight. So much to see and do. Lunch was at 1pm which was very welcome as we were all very hungry by then! Overall a great day. Thank you.Written February 20, 2025
- theButtonwood0 contributionsDisappointing visit to Val Paraiso!We had a very disappointing visit to Val Paraiso. We went to see the murals on the walls of the homes in Val Paraiso and ended feeling like we were in a tourist trap. Our guide had little to no knowledge of the beautiful art work on the walls. We stopped at a market/ coffee shop on the way for a wine tasting. We sampled some of the worst wines and didn’t even get to try what that region is known for (white wine). The stop for lunch was another tourist trap, beautiful view with terrible food. After lunch we said take us back to Santiago please.Written February 16, 2025
- Voyage333036395680 contributionsExcellent Day!She had a great tour today with Rocía. She was able to manage a group who only spoke Spanish and us who have nearly no Spanish seamlessly. We learned a lot about the indigenous history of Chile, while seeing some of its most significant sites.Written February 11, 2025

Distant dd Santiago, but with good muitp straffes take us to this interesting park. Definitely a kniter day trip but... we only found a kiosk selling sandwiches, although the park has a restaurant. We did not know the operating days. The bathrooms are clean, but they could be larger, more numerous and more distributed throughout the park. The highlight is the aviary, but there are no chilean fauna birds for legal/ecological reasons. Beautiful and numerous exotic birds, of various species, flying freely among the trees. A glimpse...!

This day tour was a great experience! The tour of the bird aviary was very well done and the garden/ponds were beautiful. The home of Poet Neruda included many interesting collections and the audio tour was worthwhile. I especially appreciated the tour guides Fernanda and Matteo who were very accommodating and helpful. Laidy and Ignacio of the Tricao were also very helpful. Our lunch was delicious and the service was slow, which I understand will be addressed for future tours.
