The stops at the fish market, sea lions, Easter Island statue, and winery all made for such a fantastic day! Miguel was a perfect guide. As he shared stories about the places, artists and wine it was clear he loves this place and that enthusiasm was contagious! He added local incites and a lot of fun to the day! I highly recommend this tour.

Great tour of Valparaiso with Miguel and Alex! - tour was great! pickup from hotels was smooth and stops were well chosen. most of all however, our guide Miguel and our driver Alex were amazing! it’s clear Miguel is both knowledgeable and very passionate about the area. he was able to give historical and political information about the areas we visited without being overwhelming. our wine tasting guide was also fantastic (forget her name :( ). the banter amongst others on the tour was great, including the drive back with heavy wine consumption! drop off was also smooth as well, with the option to return to hotel or anywhere else in the city.

Great way to see the coast! - Miguel is an amazing guide. You can tell he really loves his country. The street art is amazing, and a highlight for me is as going down to the docks and seeing the giant sea lions and pelicans. The winery was also a great experience. I had a great day and would absolutely recommend this tour!

Good value day excursion. - Despite rainy weather our excursion was fun and interesting. My favourite part was the tour through two of the hills of the town with fasinating architechture and street art. Visits to the fisherman’s wharf and winery were also memorable. Tour guide Nacho’s enthusiasm brought the trip alive.

Fun-filled experience - This was such an incredible tour. Steve was brilliantly funny, educated on the surroundings, and honest. A great photographer to boot. We were able to have some breakfast while witnessing the Casablanca morning mist on our way to Valparaiso. The stop at the coast was a highlight. Lots of wildlife. Lunch was delicious and and the stop at the winery was a great way to end the day.
