Friendly, knowledgeable, punctual and good value. What more could you ask for? Christian listened to what are interests were so brought along Magdalena for her better English and knowledge of Chiloe birds and nature. In addition, Christian offered to drive us to the bus station early morning of our last day as a favour which was kind and helpful. We did 3 outings and enjoyed them all,

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

In the morning we will pick you up at your hotel in Puerto Varas for our drive to the island of Chiloé, which includes a nice 30 minute ferry crossing during which we can observe sea lions and maybe dolphins. Once on the island, we continue south to the fishing village of Dalcahue. We will take our time to explore the beauties and culture of this beautiful small fishing village. You will learn a lot about how traditional life in Chiloe is and was during the last years. We continue our journey to Castro, the capital of Chiloe, to observe the traditional palafitos (houses built on stilts along the shore) and visit the majestic wooden church (an UNESCO World Heritage Site). We will stroll through town and stop at the crafts market featuring wood and woolen products from the region. In the late afternoon we will return to Puerto Varas driving along the eastern coastal road passing by several small fishing villages.

When I arrived in Santiago, I contacted the local tour operator because I was unable to do the tour on the day it was planned. I asked if it could be taken at a different time and they were able to accommodate. They were very nice but I believe I ended up with the basic tour. We were 6 in the van for the transfer but the small-group tour of the winery was with 22 other people. We did not get the cheese or the premium wine. We only got 3 tastings of "ordinary" wine. Our driver's english was quite basic but the guide at Concha y Toro was excellent. It was still a nice afternoon but not what I was expecting and, as I did not have the details of my purchased tour with me, I was unable to ask for anything more.

Even Frutillar was in Fase 3, Isabel organized safe tours for my husband and me. The best part of this tour is the trekking to Las Cascadas, I think is amazing; also I loved all the stops in tiny towns around the lake (as Puerto Octay) whose people was so kind and we could buy local products.

GREAT Professionals that understand how to deliver a holiday full of adventure and fun for the entire family. Our family loved this company, their excursions, and especially their guides. We are a family of 4 that was seeking a variety of activities. We let SouthernEx Chile plan propose an agenda and they delivered a family adventure that included; sunset/dinner on Volcan Villarrica with great wine, A visit to a tour/visit to a Mapuche village, Geothermal hotspring baths (we loved this), kayaking on la Poza Lagoon, lunch and tour of Volcano Osomo, full day tour of Desolación trail. SouthernEx Chile also took care of all our accommodations and transfers. The hotels and lodges that they booked were incredible. All were very kid friendly and nearly all had spectacular views. They also prepared/catered a few of the venues and we were never disappointed with the food, or beverages! The planning, venues, activities were fantastic but the the SouhernEx Chile team of guides, drivers, and hosts was what really ensured a wonderful, stress-free, vacation. We never had any communication issues, the drivers were always were on-time, and the knowledge of the guides was very impressive. We have 2 boys (age 4 and 10) and on multiple occasions the SouthernEx Chile team was entertaining our children while me and my wife were relaxing or having a nice glass of wine. One of the things that is important when it comes to having a travel guide partner is “issue resolution”. I don’t like being on vacation and dealing with issues. SouthernEx Chile excelled at this. Our travels in the Chile (Villarrica, Puerto Varas, and Santiago areas) were during the Coronavirus outbreak. There were multiple restrictions that were introduced during our visit and could have had a huge impact on our holiday. SouthernEx proactively dealt with all this by rearranging our agenda (activities, hotels, and a flight). All of these changes executed by SouthernEx with no stress on me or our family. They were great about informing us about these regulation issues, but they always had a proposal that effectively dealt with the issue and keeping our vacation wonderful. I recommend this company to all seeking a wonderful adventure with no planning stress!
