5.00This was a great opportunity to spend some time outside of the city. Alvaro was a great guide. He explained a lot of the history of Chile along with anecdotes about where we were headed. A little wine tasting at a local vineyard was also enjoyable!
Fantastic Full Day Tour Outside Santiago

5.00Alvaro was an awesome guide and highly recommend! This tour gives you so much as you get to enjoy a winery, enjoy being in the Andes, see the Inca Lagoon, visit Portillo lodge, and visit with llamas! Along with visiting these places, Alvaro would provide history and facts of country and cities!
Amazing view of the Andes!

5.00We had an amazing time on this tour! We not only got to drive through the beautiful countryside outside of Chile but we also got to see a great winery for a tasting. The drive up to Portillo was just a beautiful, and we got to truly see the Andes up close. Once at the hotel, I recommend getting lunch on the second floor bar/lounge because it is much less busy than the cafeteria and from there you can get a beautiful view of Inca Lagoon. Alvaro was a great guide with lots of information and was incredibly nice and punctual. We also felt really safe in Angelo’s hands as he drove us around. We would definitely recommend this tour!!
Very good everything from...

5.00This was an amazing tour. 10/10. Our guide Alvaro & driver Alejandro were excellent. Alvaro answered all my questions and explained a lot of history along the way. The wine tasting (more like drinking) & snacks were delicious. The drive to the Lagoon is breathtaking. Once you get to the top, it’s beyond beautiful. I highly recommend this tour. Thank you to Alvaro for a wonderful day.
