We loved our trip to Chile which we planned with Stephanie several months in advance. Private trip with another couple (all in our 50s). They planned excellent transfers and hotels from Valpairiso to flying south to Puerto Montt for a 4-5day bike trip around the largest lake, then back to Santiago for two nights before flying home. She worked with our fears of the protests in both cities—- all of which worked out just fine. The hotel staff and Amity employees were all very aware of which areas to leave at night to stay safe, and we were able to explore them al by day.
Our bike guide DAvid, and our driver Javier, were really excellent. They made the trip fun and interesting and we felt safe in their care. What an incredibly beautiful area to bike as well— (sometimes large) rolling hills, gorgeous vistas etc. The terrain is varied though so I wouldn’t go as a beginner cyclist though!
We all want to return soon— we’d go further south into Patagonia next time to explore that area too and definitely return to valpairiso as well!

Dear Igor, Rubén, Caitlin, and Cristian,
On behalf of all of us at Iowa State University that traveled to Chile last week, thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!!!
During our scouting visit in March of 2023, while the weather was far more overcast & rainy, Kevin and I were still blown away and knew our students would love central Chile and its people.
During this 2024 visit, however, ALL of us were in total awe of the full, profound beauty of this temperate rainforest landscape, with its beautifully ancient forests (clearly my favorite), incredible volcanoes, and its deeply anchored indigenous stewards…pure perfection all around. We all had a fantastic time, to say the absolute least, and the Amity guides nailed the salient trifecta of any travel experience: INSPIRE, EDUCATE, and ENTERTAIN.
Thank you all so very much and we hope to see you again very soon!
All the best,
Peter

Cristian, the head of Amity Tours, arranging a 22 day work trip for myself and my co-workers, to film hiking trails along some of the most spectacular areas in the Lakes District. Right from the beginning, Cristian was extremely knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, and most importantly, very friendly. He found the best hiking spots for us. And when we showed up, they took care of everything, from hotel arrangements, to transportation. At the beginning of each day, Cristian and his wonderful team even arranged a table with amazing snacks for us to bring along the hikes.
The food recommendations were excellent. We traveled through many areas, and hiked up incredible volcanos, visited ancient forests, and toured charming towns. All in all, no detail was forgotten. We always felt in great hands with Cristian and his amazing team. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone considering a trip to Chile, go with Amity!
Amity Tours also has a partner boat tour in Croatia, and we are already looking at planning that trip!

Amity Tours helped us to design and organize an excellent trip to the Chilean Lake District. Cristian Levy knows and loves this part of Chile and has lots of insides about the best areas to visit and places to stay in. Every detail of his suggested itinerary was informative and useful. I'm glad that in addition to AllTrails web site/app we used Cristian's advices to select the best hikes.
Last but not least. We rarely, if ever, work with tour operators when travelling. So glad that we made an exception this time. THANK YOU, Cristian.

We were introduced to Amity Tours by the local Backroads team when Backroads cancelled our cycling trip at the last minute due to the Carona virus travel restrictions (March 2020). We were put in touch with Christian Levy (based in Pucon) of Amity who was professional and extremely helpful. We were stranded in Puerto Varas, he organized transport to Pucon, made hotel reservations, planned local Pucon based sightseeing and connected us to an excellent guiding company in Puerto Varas. When it became apparent hotels in Pucon were closing (again due to Coronavirus), he reached out before our departure so that we would not travel to Pucon and be stranded there. Amity Tours was exceedingly helpful providing first in class support. Once we went to Santiago, Christian reached out again to ensure that we were safe and provided hiking recommendations. I have no hesitation recommending the Amity team and when I return to Chile, I will be seeking Christian out to meet him and thank him in person and, to use their services . Based on our experience with Christian I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Amity Tours

The people at Amity Tours were fantastic on my recent trip to the Volcanoes and Lakes District of Chile. We were provided with great food, led on beautiful hikes, and given in-depth, authentic knowledge of the areas we visited. Several moments of this trip absolutely took my breath away. The only critique I could provide is that I wish we had more time to spend at lookouts on some hikes. I cannot wait to revisit Chile with Amity Tours!

We did a 2 week guided trip in the Lakes and volcanos district with Amity in February. It was one of the best tours we have ever had. Cristian, Ernesto, Bernardo and Orlando were not only wonderful guides but amazing people. We left with 4 news friends. The tours were extremely well planned and organized. The crew organized beautiful hikes, hot springs, wonderful restaurants, and even laundry services when necessary. It was five star service and something we will never forget. I highly recommend this tour company for anyone headed to the Lakes district.

We shared our interests/likes with Amity and the general areas we wanted to be sure we experienced. The itinerary they pulled together was fantastic, with incredibly knowledgeable and FUN guides. Our adventure was a great blend of activity and culture, and we experienced areas and sights that we never would have found on our own. Highly recommend the Amity team!

Our family of 5 had an amazing trip planned by Amity Tours. We spent 17 days traveling from Santiago, heading north to the desert, then south to Patagonia, then finishing in Pucon. It was a trip of a life time, all of it perfectly executed by Amity tours. Everyday we had an fantastic adventure or excursion planned. It was always the right amount of activity and the selection of the activities was perfect for our family. Thank you Cristian and Amity Tours.
