Hello and welcome! Thank you for taking the time checking my profile & exploring Chile. I was born and raised in Concepción, one of the rainiest cities in Southern Chile. I hold a B.A. in Communications and Journalism, as well as a Higher Education Diploma in Tourism Management and Sustainability. Becoming a tour guide was a natural choice for me, as I believe that communication is key to building a more understanding and connected world. My passion lies in sharing Chile’s rich history, culture, and stunning landscapes with visitors from around the globe. In my 20s, after graduating from college, I spent seven years traveling and working abroad in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. While those experiences were enriching, I knew it was time to return home, where I felt a deep calling to showcase Chile’s wonders to international visitors. I take great pride in my role as a tour guide, serving as an ambassador for foreign travelers and offering them an authentic glimpse of this beautiful country. With over a decade of experience in the hospitality and tourism industry, both in Chile and abroad, I’ve had the privilege of working in Michelin-starred restaurants and world-class retreat properties. I’ve guided over 20,000 people across Chile and South America, and I haven’t lost a single one yet! I’m passionate about literature, the performing arts, photography, and nature, and I bring that enthusiasm into every tour I lead. Whether it’s discussing history, architecture, politics, art, or economics, I love sharing my knowledge and insights with travelers.

“Fantastic service and personalized touches.”
We needed transport from the Santiago Airport to Vina Del Mar where we would stay a few days before embarking on a cruise. Hector picked us up directly from the Santiago airport in a very nice and clean Mercedez mini-van. We stopped in a quaint coffee shop in a small town to take a breather before heading to a beautiful winery, tucked away in the rolling hills of the Casablanca Valley. We were hosted by Alexandra, the sommelier of the Villard Winery who recounted the French history of the winery and explained the characteristics of the soil, micro climate and sun exposure that gave each grape its unique and wonderful flavor. By far, the best wine tasting experience we ever had. Then Hector presented us with a series of options for lunch and we opted for a small Italian restaurant in his native city of Valparaiso, outside of the usual tourist tracks. We loved it!! He then took us around the city of Vina Del Mar before dropping us at our hotel in late afternoon. Throughout the tour and intersperse with personal stories, Hector took the time to explain his country’s history and culture. The day could not have been better. We highly recommend Hector and his driver.

“City tour and transfer to hotel San Antonio ”
We enjoyed a relaxing but informative private city tour with Juan after arriving in Santiago from Canada. Juan showed us many sights, some driving but also some walking, as well as the gondola, before driving us to San Antonio hotel. He was efficient, kind and had a sense of humor. Appreciated his English! Thanks.

“Wonderful time in Santiago! ”
Maricel was the perfect guide! After picking us up at an unearthly hour in the morning, she organised a half day packed with the best sights of Santiago. We ended our tour with lunch at a lovely vineyard before drop-off at our cruise ship. We had an awesome time in Santiago... Thanks Thomas and Maricel!
