Pablo D.
Hi everyone ! This is Pablo , I’m a passionate traveler, storyteller, and local guide originally from Chile. With a professional background in environmental sciences and over 15 years of life on the road, I’ve lived in places like Australia and explored cultures across the globe, from the U.S. to Brazil. But wherever I go, I carry a deep love for my roots, my culture, and the stories that make each corner of Chile so uniquely vibrant. Today, I dedicate myself to what I love most: connecting with people and sharing unforgettable experiences through personalized, authentic tours. For me, guiding isn’t just about showing places, it’s about making you feel at home, creating trust, and truly understanding what travelers need to feel safe, inspired, and excited along the way. That’s where I stand apart: empathy is my compass. I’m deeply passionate about Chilean wine, traditional food, and local crafts and I bring that love into every experience I create. The places I’ll show you aren’t just beautiful , they come alive through a local lens, full of flavor, history, and genuine connection.

Catalina N.
Catalina here! Local TourGuide of Valparaíso and Viña del Mar :) I came to Valparaíso more than 6 years ago and I fell in love with this place. I just love the intricate stairs, the hidden corners and colorful alleys.. its endless magic, its art community, its legacy and its resilience; the culture, the people, the port. Viña del Mar, our twin City: close sisters with very different souls. Viña is a beautiful Garden City, with nice beaches and restaurants, a lovely boardcoast, parks and nature, shops and old treasures around. Now I walk all over both cities sharing them with the world, and hoping you have a nice time and get to connect with this uniques cities in Latinoamerica. The tours I offer are flexible in many ways and they can be tailored to your needs or interests. So If you have questions or doubts just ask and share your ideas or worries. A little about myself! I studied Ecotourism. I love to walk, love nature, animals, and nice adventures. I also love hot chocolate, interesting conversations and creating things with my hands. I hope we can meet!

“Airport pickup and Santiago tour ”
We had an outstanding experience with Manfred as our guide! From the moment he picked us up at the airport, we knew we were in good hands. Manfred was an excellent communicator, kind, relaxed, and incredibly accommodating throughout our time in Santiago. With a wealth of knowledge about both adventure and culture, he was a valuable resource, offering insightful tips that enhanced the rest of our trip—like where to find the best food, how to get a good exchange rate, and so much more. Even though our flight arrived early, Manfred was easy to spot at the airport and made sure we were comfortable from the start. His spacious van comfortably fit all of our luggage, including ski bags, and he kindly dropped us off at our hotel to get settled before the tour began. We then explored Santiago, visiting all the city's top highlights while learning about Chile’s rich cultural history and modern life. Manfred’s unique perspectives and fascinating nuggets of knowledge really brought the city to life. One of the things we appreciated most was how flexible Manfred was with the itinerary. While he offered great suggestions, we were also encouraged to tailor the tour to our interests. A highlight was stumbling upon a folk dance parade in the heart of downtown, where we got to watch stunning traditional costumes and dances, immersing ourselves in the local festivities. And if you're looking for someone to capture the moments, Manfred is happy to take photos for you too! We cannot recommend Manfred highly enough. His passion for his work, his genuine kindness, and his attention to detail made our trip unforgettable. By the end of the tour, we truly felt like we had made a good friend in Santiago. If you're looking for a top-notch guide, you’re in excellent hands with Manfred!
Manfred M.
Thank you so much, I'm happy to had you, until next time!

What is the best way to tour Chile?
Given Chile’s overwhelming size and varying terrain, touring looks different depending on where you are. In Santiago, walking and riding the metro and the bus is the best way.

Trekking and hiking is popular in the Patagonia region, but supervision is required at certain points.
