As we proceed, you’ll enjoy a stunning panoramic view of Santiago from Cerro Calán, perfect for capturing the sunset with a 360-degree view and will taste a traditional chilean snack.

Excellent experience, really very complete and entertaining. It was my first time riding a scooter and they taught me how to use it perfectly, I felt super safe the whole tour. I also highlight the way to relate the tour, super clear and entertaining at all times.
It's worth the walk

Last Sunday we had a wonderful family experience! I wanted to emphasize safety first: Macarena and Loreto conduct the tour super well, which was essential for me, since it was my first time on a patin and I was with my 7-year-old son. I liked the care they have in teaching.The trail is full of history, monuments and curiosities about the local nature. The highlight, for sure, is the view of Cerro Calán! It is a sensational view, if you can see the city 360 degrees.We will definitely do it again as soon as possible. In addition to the whole structure, they have 'Brazilian soul'! super recommend!
Excellent experience and guide!

Macarena was excellent and took the time to instruct us on how to operate our scooters safely. My husband and I got to have her all to ourselves for 3.5 hr tour and she gave us lots of interesting facts and information at scenic stops along the way. She even brought an authentic Chilean snack for us to enjoy. Highly recommend this tour!!!
A different way to get to know Santiago

I was lucky enough to do this tour alone, and it was a great experience from the start. As it was raining, I was offered very flexibly to do the same route but on foot and by car, instead of the scooter. I thought it was an excellent alternative, as safety was prioritized without losing any of the points of the tour. Maca, the guide, was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. He showed me a different face from Santiago, more connected to nature and with unforgettable views. We could see the mountain range completely snowed and had a very good time talking and learning. Fully recommended if you are looking for something different, well organized and personalized.
Fun and exhilarating tour

My guide Maca was outstanding. Really knowledgeable, very friendly and accommodating. I had a great time. The ride up the hill to the observatory was so much fun in scooter and the views were fantastic. I would highly recommend this tour.
Perfecto :)

Had a great time on the "Andes Mountains: Discover the Magic and Colors" tour. It ended up being just me that day, but Maca, the guide, made it feel really personal and relaxed. She was super knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and shared a lot about the history and culture of the area without it feeling like a lecture. The landscapes were beautiful — mountains, valleys, and parks I’d never have found on my own. The pace was easygoing, with plenty of time to stop for photos and just take it all in. Even though it’s designed as a group tour, I can see this working well for families or solo travelers. It was a simple, genuine way to experience the Andes, and I’d definitely recommend it if you’re in the area.

This is a really lovely experience. It takes you off the beaten path of most city tours to show you art, culture, and a fantastic view of the city. The guide is friendly and knowledgable. Would recommend.

Lovely walk! The circuit is cultural, full of Santiago history, exuberantly landscaped! The skates are amazing! For those who ride a bike, you'll catch the fast way in pre-walk class. Both the urban part, the park are indispensable! There are typical bird nests along the way! Binoculars can be useful! The mountains are amazing! Excellent guides! The final visit with the refreshing surprise and the aquarel class are fascinating!
Enchanted!

We had an excellent experience. When starting a tour, my husband had an unexpected problem and we could not continue. Macarena helped us in a caring and professional way. Later he wrote us offering to accompany us the next day so that we could have the experience that the tour proposed to offer. We were pleasantly surprised and delighted with your availability! We could finally enjoy the amazing visits to the Andes mountains around Cerro Calán. And since it was March 2 and the Museo de la Chilenidad would be closed, Macarena led us to a beautiful Benedictine Monastery at the foot of the mountains where we were lucky to accompany a few minutes of the monks that live there. It was a wonderful experience! We highly recommend the tour, especially for the originality of the proposal, for allowing to know something more of this beautiful city and for the professionalism and sympathy of Macarena!
