We took this tour last year. The guide doesn’t speak English at all, and keep repeating the same information over and over. They also don’t let you move and ask you to be next to them all the time. Amazing place but awful guide

I wish I could be writing a review on the tour itself, but it never happened. I received email confirmation from TripAdvisor that the tour would happen and that my pick-up time was from 6:30-7:30 AM. I waited until 7:55. I emailed them and sent them a message via WhatsApp. No communication. I expect a full refund.

We are going to horse ride into the mountains on the east side of the city where we enter to a unique ravine of the "Sierra de Ramón" We are going to meet the "Arrieros" or local gauchos that have worked their entire lives with horses. We will have a picnic after 2 hrs into a very nice central zone forest with shade and water. This experience is designed for people without experience and also for professional riders. The ride lasts 3 hours roundtrip, that's the original plan but we can manage to adapt this to every level and needs. The first part of the ride is pretty flat and has the best views of the city. After that we are going to get into the ravine with native forest and shades, there we will be the only visitors, no crowds/ tourists guaranteed! This nice enjoying ride is also a class, so you get to know your horse and learn how to ride it with safety through ups and downs on mountain trails. I'm going to teach you different techniques, safety and much more!

Hike Cerro Manquehue "The Iconic mountain of Santiago" "Condors nest" in Mapudungun: Mapuche's local language. The short distance to the city and the views that you can get in a relatively short time makes this hike a "must do" if you got a day in the city. It is much better early on weekdays, on weekends usually, it's crowded. The total climbing or elevation gain is 500 meters / 1500 feet in a 5k roundtrip. It is a pretty steep ascent but the good thing is that in half-day you hike to 1600 meters above sea level.

Inclusions: Bottled water, Snacks, Driver/guide, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Private tour, Transport by private vehicle, Transport by air-conditioned minivan, Lunch

Exclusions: Gratuities

This was an excellent trip into the Andes by a very knowledgeable Guide called Nicholas. We were lucky enough to see a Grey Fox, Condors' and a Chilean Eagle. Nothing was too much trouble for our guide and we were treated to drinking red wine with cheese and biscuits high up in the Andes surrounded by beautiful scenery and absolute silence.. It was an amazing visit.

A fun evening of music, food and dance. We were at rectangular tables arranged around a central rectangular stage where all the action was focused. The host took us through all the different regions of Chile. Was fully in Spanish, but we enjoyed it just as much. The dancers invited members from the audience for almost every second dance. Our memorable dance as a couple was after a very quick switch from both of us dancing with the dancers followed by each other. The Spanish host was quite eloquent with Frank Sinatra as part of the serenading of an impromptu anniversary celebration of an old Spanish couple. Food needed more spice. The 3 course meal was outstanding otherwise.
