5.00It was a terrific 4 mile hike as described. The guide asked if we wanted to modify the planned excursion. She was very accommodating. She was fantastic answering our never ending questions and describing Chilean culture, fauna, and flora. We had a wonderful time.
Great way to spend the morning in Santiago

5.00What a great experience to get out of the center of Santiago for part of the day. Our morning hike was fantastic - our guide was wonderful and provided an excellent overall experience. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a small group experience outside of Santiago. The owner/operator of this tour has put a lot into creating a good experience for customers and it shows.
Stunning Views and Great Vibes

5.00I highly recommend this to anyone with a free block of time! The hike is a great 3-5 mile stretch that goes up and down a few hills. The summit gives a perfect view of Santiago as well as the Andes. You can even see glaciers at certain mountain peaks. The path was relatively quiet and peaceful with the occasional cyclist passing the group.

5.00Great fun and very steep hike. The trail was steep and difficult at times as the sand was slippery. It was a nice hike but would pick a different trail in the future. Our guide was wonderful!
Josephina was an amazing guide! The views were amazing and the hike was fun. Wine and cheese tray at the end was fun.
