Excellent Tour of Santiago - We had a wonderful tour of Santiago with Ignacio. Our goal (in six hours...) was to leave with a real sense of the city, and that goal was realized and more. We drove, we walked, and we took the Metro to see beautiful parks, interesting neighborhoods, and historic sites. We stopped off for delicious coffee and had the opportunity to talk with Ignacio about his experiences. He is very knowledgeable, flexible with the itinerary - and fun to be with. We recommend this tour highly.

Stop over tour Santiago - Our guide Pablo was friendly and very knowledgeable about the history of chile which was interesting. I can recommend stop over yours as a great way to fill in the long time between flights.

Fabulous Valparaiso to Santiago Tour - This tour was fabulous and completely worth every penny. Mauricio picked us up at our hotel in Valparaiso, carried our heavy suitcases out to his SUV, and safely drove us to Santiago. During the ride, he regaled us with stories about Valparaiso and Santiago. He had so much interesting information to offer. Once in Santiago, he took us to the most interesting sights in the city, the likes of which we’ve never seen: an amazing shopping/living village in the heart of the city (Mercado Urbano Tobalana); a gorgeous green space (Bicentennial Park) with colorful plants and trees and black-necked swans, and amazing views; an old fort on Santa Lucia Hill (which he graciously drove us up to the top of a hill which we’d never have been able to climb), and awesome diverse neighborhoods (including Lastarria and a very cool restaurant, and Italia - including a delicious lunch). We were sad when Mauricio had to drop us off at the airport to fly home. He was a pleasure to spend the day with. And the owner of City Trekking Guide, Ignacio, was so very accommodating. We highly recommend this tour, this company, and the guides they hire.

Santiago Walkabout! - Fernando was a terrific guy and a great human being. We walked over 9 miles on this full day tour so you need to be reasonably fit for this one. Fernando shared his Chilean pride and soul with us and we could not be happier with the experience!

Excellent 1/2 day customized tour of Santiago - Edward was excellent. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. He asked about my interests and customized the tour to my liking. Rodrigo was an excellent driver and also shared knowledge and sights around town. My flight arrived mid morning, and I needed to spend an overnight at the airport hotel (Holiday Inn) they picked me up and dropped me at the hotel at my requested time highly recommend this tour.

Perfect way to spend a stopover in Santiago - Mauricio picked us up from Santiago airport and gave us an amazing insight of Santiago as only a local can do. He catered the tour to our preferences and made what would have been a looong 8hrs at an airport lounge into a fun visit to an amazing city. We felt more like we had a friend showing us their city than a paid guide. He was perfection in getting us back to the airport without any stress in making our flight. Highly recommend booking this trip if you have time

A great 7 hours in Santiago! - I had a wonderful layover tour with Fernando. We spent the day visiting Santiago's neighborhoods, learning about the nation's history and past and current politics which was of great interest to me. Fernando was a very accommodating guide and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a seamless tour to and from the airport!

Walking tour during flight layover - We had a very long layover in Santiago and this tour fit well. It was easy to find the spot to meet at the airport exit and the guide was very flexible with pickup and drop off times (planned from 2pm to 8pm). Fernando was a wonderful guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and we learned a lot from him. I enjoyed covering the main highlights of the city, and he did a great job of shortening the tour based on time constraints with our flight departure time. My only surprise was the distance that we walked, it was over 5 miles (over 8km). I am glad that I remembered to bring a change of clothes in my carry-on bag :). If you are not up for a long walk, please let them know and they can adjust the tour for you. We enjoyed visiting Santiago! When we come back with my husband, we will spend more time with the tour.
