David is your friend in Chile that you never knew you had!
Ankit T,,Dec 20, 2025
- Review from Viator
5.00David is your local friend and not a ‘tour guide’. Spending time with David exploring the city, enjoying the food, soaking in the vibe and exploring the architecture feels like meeting a friend in a new city. David made us try all the unique food that makes Chile, CHILE and gave us just the right amount of information about the city, people and culture. We were known as the couple that all knew all about chile in the rest of trip because of our time with David. Every time someone would ask us “Do you know this or Have you tried this?” We had our hands up because of David. David is super flexible and works with you on shaping the itinerary the way you want it, just like your buddy would. Pro Tip: Book this experience on your day one to get a crash course immersive experience on the culture of Chile.
Perfect tour for 1st day in the city

5.00David took us to some great places in the city center to try some local street foods. We walked/sat around while having some great conversation. Our bellies got full! He gave us a great tour of city center while it was our first full day here.
Highly recommend David and this tour.

5.00Our tour was on a Sunday and a lot of businesses are closed so David took us to the flea market. The food was excellent and we loved touring the flea market.

5.00Bring your own water as the restaurants do not provide free water, only bottled. I'm adding another sentence here to meet the ridiculous requirement of 100 minimum characters.

Nice guy but poor service

2.00Fernando is a very nice young man, however he knew nothing about the sites or history. He did not follow the itinerary as described. I am disabled and he did everything in his power to accommodate me since walking was very challenging. We ate hotdogs typical Italian mayo ketchup and avocado. We had an empanada from a local stand and he introduced us to a native drink which we did not like. It wasn’t until a different tour that we had the same drink and loved it. So our assumption is that his chosen spot was not good. We gave him a 20% tip because he was really trying. I want the owner of the tour group to call me to discuss other facets of our experience
Good guide, poor meeting point

4.00The tour guide was very friendly and attentive. He stayed past our scheduled time. However, the meeting point was terrible. We arrived early, expecting to be able to walk around. But the meeting point was in a run down side street, not at all acceptable. The tour guide told us he could have met us at our hotel instead.

5.00We had a fantastic time on our food tour, our guide David was both entertaining and knowledgeable as he also gives history tours. It was a holiday but David was able to easily navigate to places that were open and delicious. Conversation was easy flowing and never boring. Strongly recommend.
Fabulous food and a new friend!

5.00Despite the holiday, with most things closed, David introduced us to great food, shared history, and also led us to a spot where we saw the president arriving at a formal event. Very memorable.
