Great guide and tour! - We had a young, multilingual, well educated guide who paced the walk perfectly. He had great recommendations for art - we visited several artists we would not have found on our own! He took great care to get us back to our starting point (much appreciated). Would highly recommend this experience as it could be overwhelming to be in the area without some guidance and insight in to the history and culture of this cosmopolitan city.

Fabulous walking tour - Benjamin was lovely and super knowledgeable. We really enjoyed seeing the city and its murals. Benjamin had contacts with the artists and the museum visits were a bonus. Would definitely recommend as we could not have found the spots we did without a guide.

Maria was incredible, we loved the tour - We were a bit nervous to explore Valparaiso based on what we read online and heard from locals about heightened security concerns. However, Maria was an incredible tour guide and a seasoned local who left us with a great impression of the city and beautiful memories of a great day. We walked all around the city's muraled walls and she was very knowledgeable about the underlying messaging and even knew some of the artists. She brought us to incredible local art studios, cafes, and shops. We experienced great views walking up the city's hillsides and traveling by funicular. I would recommend this tour to anyone eager to explore Valparaiso!

Private art tour .. guide was preoccupied with his phone - Our guide Alex was on time and he did have good information. But he was on his phone for half of the tour. For a private tour it was not what I expected or wanted. I would have gotten a lot more out of a group tour. He did help us with finding a good safe atm and the post office
