A truly memorable experience - We had a wonderful experience with Ecordua, a small family-run company based in Santiago, Chile, offering a variety of trips with a strong focus on enjoying the outdoors. We joined one of their horseback riding trips as complete novices and couldn’t have felt more comfortable, safe, or well cared for. Our guide, Josefina, was outstanding: a well-trained and highly knowledgeable outdoor guide, but above all genuinely enthusiastic about her country and passionate about sharing her knowledge and love for nature with us. This review is both a thank-you for the lovely experience we had and a way to express our support for small businesses like Ecordua, which promote more sustainable tourism and offer a far more personal and meaningful experience for their guests. We were initially drawn to Ecordua by their neat, clear, and informative website—and we were delighted to find that the experience delivered exactly what was promised. May our paths cross again someday. Highly recommended!

A fantastic excursion, start to finish! - My adult daughter and I booked this as a half day outing when we were in Santiago for several days. Easy to reserve online, and bonus points that Ecordua picks up directly at our hotel! Our guide, Frank, was friendly, knowledgeable, and full of enthusiasm for the outdoor activities available in the greater Santiago area. As others have noted, the hike is rocky and steep for the first 15 minutes or so, but becomes a nice dirt path after that. The provided hiking poles were helpful for stability. When we asked what flora/fauna we might see, Frank gave a short list which included small reptiles, rabbits, and condors. Not five minutes later, a HUGE condor circled right above us, what a tremendous sight! The hike felt good - a moderately challenging hike that left us feeling accomplished, but, not worn out. We enjoyed the wine/cheese picnic after (with yummy strawberries, stuffed olives, chips, etc.), and continued chatting with Frank about the local area, and our trip in general. Really, a lovely outing, we recommend this!

Half day hike in the Andies with city views and picnic - It was a terrific 4 mile hike as described. The guide asked if we wanted to modify the planned excursion. She was very accommodating. She was fantastic answering our never ending questions and describing Chilean culture, fauna, and flora. We had a wonderful time.

A Welcome Break from the City - What a great experience to get out of the center of Santiago for part of the day. Our morning hike was fantastic - our guide was wonderful and provided an excellent overall experience. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a small group experience outside of Santiago. The owner/operator of this tour has put a lot into creating a good experience for customers and it shows.

Stunning Views and Great Vibes - I highly recommend this to anyone with a free block of time! The hike is a great 3-5 mile stretch that goes up and down a few hills. The summit gives a perfect view of Santiago as well as the Andes. You can even see glaciers at certain mountain peaks. The path was relatively quiet and peaceful with the occasional cyclist passing the group.
