5.00This was an amazing tour, Julio and Andres were great tour guide and driver. The tour was exactly what we wanted Valparaiso spots were perfect and Andres was flexible letting us shop when we wanted, and when we wanted to see sea lions he made sure to get us right to them. If your looking for a private tour this is well worth it.

5.00Vanessa was a great guide. We loved Valparaiso. Sensory overload. So much to see. From a scheduling point of view, we could have done without the visit to Viña Del Mar and lunched in Valparaiso, then returned to Santiago. Still, it was most worth it.
Welcoming and warm tour guide and driver

5.00We had such a great day with tour guide Álvaro and driver Caterina! They were so friendly and welcoming, and Alvaro shared tons of fascinating information about Chile, especially Valparaíso, and Viña del Mar. We felt completely at ease and really enjoyed the whole trip. Highly recommend this tour!

5.00I had an excellent experience. Took a detour off main highway to see the valley and wine area as we made our way to Valparaiso. My guide was exceptional in talking about the history of each area. Valparaiso is a beautiful city with incredible murals painted on many of the buildings. We did a fair bit of walking and he was always checking to make sure he wasn't taxing this 60 year to much. Highly recommend them for all tours in Santiago and area.
A good trip to Valparaiso

5.00It was a good trip by Alvaro. He explained well the history of Valparaiso and vina de mar. We even had a side trip to the wine yard for wine tasting. Alvaro is personal and took care of our requests. We would recommend highly contacting Alvaro if you need a guide in Santiago.

5.00We were absolutely thrilled with the tour of Valparaíso that Alvaro organized for us. He showed us the city in a completely different light , through local stories, hidden streets, and beautiful viewpoints we would never have found on our own. His flexibility, professionalism, and warm personality made us feel like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than a guide. A special mention goes to our driver, Ariel, an experienced and professional driver who made the journey smooth, safe, and comfortable. Together, they made our day in Valparaíso truly unforgettable. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for an authentic and perfectly organized experience in Chile!
Enjoyable full day of touring from Santiago to Valparaiso

5.00We traveled from Santiago to Valparaiso for our tour. If you're not familiar, it's about a 2 hour drive. We toured by foot and van in Valparaiso and Vina del Mar. We had a nice lunch by Happy Hill and walked back down after. We had plenty of time to walk, look and do some shopping. We had a little side stop on the way back for a quick wine tasting at Bodega RE which was very nice. Catalina, our guide was quite pleasant and knowledgeable and very good to talk to. Our driver, Carolina did a great job as well.
Great private tour of two major cities

5.00Alvaro was a great communicator and arranged a private tour at my last minute request. The tour was arranged such a way for us to enjoy the city and with one on one attention. Fish soup (caldillo de control) was certainly the highlight of my trip!! Great service and I highly recommend this tour company.
Second day with Alvaro

5.00After a first day in Santiago with Alvaro we were not disappointed! Alvaro was again very knowledgeable, had organised a safe driver/car and lead us around! I am sure that even if we had spent a week on our own we would not have seen more! We finished up with a winery visit in the Casablanca Valley where we could sit down with their head sommelier and enjoy their premium wines!
