Traveler reviews
Fantastic Tour of Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Casablanca Valley!
We had an unforgettable experience on this tour! Everything was well-organized, and our guide, Juan, was knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the history and culture of the region. Our driver, José, made the journey smooth and comfortable from start to finish. Valparaíso was a highlight, with its stunning street art and colorful murals bringing the city to life. In Viña del Mar, we enjoyed breathtaking ocean views and a delicious seafood lunch right by the water. Along the way, we also got to feed llamas, taste Pisco and local wines, and shop for unique handmade crafts. The itinerary was well-paced, with plenty of time to explore, take photos, and enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. The only minor downside was that the wine tasting was at a roadside shop rather than a vineyard, but it was still a great experience. Overall, this was a fantastic tour, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Chile! Huge thanks to Juan and José for making our day so special.
Great Way to See The Coast
If you have an extra day in Santiago, it’s a nice tour to see the coast of Chile. We spent most of the time in enjoying the kaleidoscope of Valparaiso’s streets, hills and its many visitors. As a native of the city, our tour guide Juan, was esp knowledgeable and shared stories and history of the city, as well as managing the steep, narrow roads like a pro! The drive around beautiful Viña Del Mar’s green spaces and beaches was a nice finish to the day.
Vina de Mar was very...
Vina de Mar was very nice!! The guide was tired and spoke as little as possible. He was looking at his phone too much.
Enjoyed our tour with Juan C. with Toursbylocals from Santiago to Vina del Mar and Valparaiso
Nice tour to Valparaiso and Vina del Mar. Juan speaks excellent english. He never seemed to mind answering the many questions we asked about Chile's history, changes from 60 years ago to present, and things we spotted outside our windows. He is quite knowledgeable about many topics and gave us informations about the plants, trees, wineries, etc. during our drive to/from the two cities. His van was very clean and comfortable and we really appreciated his picking us up and dropping us off.
Great day!
We had a wonderful experience on this tour! It started with our guide, Juan. He was very personable, very knowledgeable about Chile, answered all our questions in English, which was nice so my daughter didn't have to translate all day! Valpo was beautiful. The winery was amazing! Staff was very attentive. We were offered more tastings than were included in tour. Lunch was on our own at the winery and it was one of the best meals we had in Chile! Muy delicioso!! Would highly recommend this tour.
