“Knowledgable and a Great guide ”
I had the pleasure of spending the day with Daniel as my local tour guide for Santiago and the Maipo Valley, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, Daniel was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. He gave a fascinating overview of Chile’s wine regions, particularly the Maipo Valley, and brought the history of the area to life with insight and clarity. His passion for both wine and Chilean culture was clear, and he made the experience engaging and memorable. Daniel’s English is fantastic, and he can tailor a tour to your interests while also offering great recommendations. If you’re visiting Santiago and looking for a wine or food tour with someone who really knows their stuff and makes you feel at ease, Daniel is your man. A truly enjoyable and enriching day—thank you, Daniel!

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.
