Fantastic!

5.00Nicholas was a fantastic guide! Great driver too, which is important on the switchback roads ascending the mountains. We saw 6 condors and one was really close. It was incredible. The wine and cheese at the top was so tasty and the views were spectacular. Couldn't have been any better. Ask for Nicholas!
Had a lovely day driving...

5.00Had a lovely day driving up to the Andes. Cristobal our guide was very knowledgeable and a good driver on some very curvy roads. He didn’t rush us.

5.00Our guide was superb! Hermo made us feel comfortable throughout our Andean Mountain experience. We are senior citizens so going up around 10,000 feet requires more patience and understanding and Hermo fully accommodated our need to walk a little slower and to ensure we were safe. We absolutely were in awe of the spectacular views and seeing the Andean Condor. Having a nice lunch snack with Chilean wine made this day even more special! I highly recommend this trip, it is worth every penny!

5.00Nicholas was a most informative and genial host for our trip. We saw condors gliding above us and experienced a memorable view of some spectacular mountain ranges. A fitting conclusion was the wine and cheese tasting on the edge of a cliff overlooking the valley below.
Amazing tour and amazing tour guide!

5.00This tour was exactly what we were hoping for - we were short on time and wanted to get high up into the Andes. The views were unbelievable, the cost was perfect, and we got to see so many condors and other plants and animals. But what really made the tour was nicolas - he is so knowledgeable and friendly, and his passion for nature made the whole experience so beautiful! Thank you!

5.00Nicolas picked us up on time, and drove us high into the Andes. We had a great trip up into the mountains, with Nicolas providing us with interesting information as we travelled. On understanding my wife's minor mobility problems, Nicolas was happy to change his intended plans for our cheese and wine, and changed the location to enable easier access
A tour beyond our expectations!

5.00We had a lovely day with our wonderful guide, Hermo. He picked us up on time, accommodated all our needs, and gave us the extraordinary opportunity to see the impressive Andes, as well as several condor sightings. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough!… words can’t capture the serenity and beauty of our lunch spot where he laid out delicious snacks and a luscious red wine. This is a “must do” tour if you have an extra day in Santiago. We’re delighted to have been able to do this. Grateful thanks again to Hermo - we won’t forget our amazing time with you!
