“It was really interesting to See important places and buildings and get in touch with the spirit of Santiago.”
See Santiago’s key sights in four hours, from La Moneda and Central Market to hilltop views, Bellavista, and Chilean history.
“What a wonderful surprise to find out my friend and I had our own private tour with Giovanni! Exploring this beautiful city in a private vehicle was the perfect way to take in all the must-see sights and learn so much more than just the basics. Giovanni’s knowledge of the history, culture, and geopolitical background of this vibrant place really made the experience worthwhile. His English was great—and I even got to dust off my college Spanish. I highly recommend him and this tour company.”
Float in a salt lagoon near San Pedro de Atacama, visit desert pools and salt flats, then enjoy snacks and a pisco sour with Andes views.
“We really enjoyed our experience of floating without any effort in a lagoon in the Atacama desert: it was very unique! The park had installations to take a shower to rince ourselves afterwards, restrooms and changing rooms, which was very convenient. With the exception of the lagoon we were floating in, we could not really go near the other lagoons; they were a bit far and we could barely see them in the photos we have taken. Our guide Rafael was great: he was really kind with us, ensured we were drinking water and putting on sunscreen and told us relevant information about the lagoons and the desert.”
Pick a desert, a vineyard or a glacier.
