Cajon del Maipo (Mountains and Rivers)
The most beautiful, magical place with clean air in Santiago. This tour consists of a visit to the large reservoir "el yeso" with more than 2 million liters of water and an amazing view, a stop at "the chocolate house" (the replica of Hanzel and Gretel's house) where you can taste the richest and thickest chocolate in the city, then you can bathe or feel the water of the "queltehue" waterfall with a delicious toast of a good Chilean wine. If you come to Santiago you cant miss this amazing place

Mountains and River.
This activity-based tour offers the best of both worlds. We begin with an exciting rafting adventure down the Maipo River, surrounded by stunning natural scenery. Afterward, we’ll enjoy a delicious lunch to recharge. Next, we’ll visit the "Puente Cristo" geosite, where you can explore its unique geological formations. To finish the day, we’ll enjoy a lovely "once"—a traditional Chilean tea-time snack that offers a taste of local culture and flavors. It's an all in one unforgettable experience!
