Lauren C17. February, 2023.A great experience My husband and I really enjoyed this experience during our time in Santiago. It was great to get out of the city and enjoy a clear summer day in the mountains! The views were breathtaking. Gustavo was a very knowledgeable and passionate guide who knows a lot about horses, wine, and all things Chile. The wine and cheese after the ride, and the chance to see the rest of the animals, was also great. Thanks so much to Gustavo, Orlando, and the team!
Glenn C17. February, 2023.A perfect getaway This was an amazing time. Our guide picked us up from our hotel. Joaquin was his name and he was very nice and informative and patient. The horses that we rode were very well trained and the ride itself was just a pleasure. The trail that you ride is just something from a movie. It is just so beautiful and calm and relaxing. It was the quickest 2 hour ride you will ever have and it will leave you wanting more. We would highly recommend.
Lara A15. February, 2023.A Beautiful Day in the Andes! We had a fantastic time with our guide, Gustavo! We had transportation issues getting to the drop-off location, and Ecotura was extremely accommodating to make sure we still made the tour, even though it was our own fault. The location is not far from Santiago, but feels like a beautiful escape from the city! The experience felt very authentic, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. The meat and cheese lunch after definitely hit the spot - especially washed down with Chilean wine! As for our guide, Gustavo, he was wonderful. He was a very thoughtful guide on the trail, and was great to chat with during lunch to learn more about Chile! I would absolutely recommend this tour. My only suggestion would be starting the tour an hour earlier in the summer as it does get quite hot by the end. Thanks again for a great day!!
Matt B14. February, 2023.Santiago City Tour & Mountain Tour Joaquin gave a half-day Santiago city tour to several of us in November 2022. He was really personable, knowledgeable about the history, interesting, and proud of his city and country. He showed us the standard sites but quickly made changes when we needed to eat or when we asked to see specific things. We enjoyed the tour so much that we booked a full day mountain tour with him a few days later. This tour was really fantastic! He is a mountaineer and very knowledgeable about the Chilean Andes. He took us up into the mountains to see a mountain hut, waterfall, glaciers, etc. We really enjoyed the day and I would most definitely use him again and recommend him to friends. Thanks very much Joaquin.
Thomas M6. February, 2023.A Birthday Treat Went on this tour with a friend to celebrate her birthday. We really enjoyed it. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and the horses very gentle. Please don't worry if you've never ridden a horse before. You'll be fine, have a great time and see wonderful views of the city of Santiago from the heights of the surrounding hills. We saw some amazing landscapes filled with cacti and several species of bird of prey. The lunch at the end with delicious Chilean wine was a real treat. My friend had a very happy birthday thanks to this tour.
isbergglenn20164. February, 2023.Hire Joaquin for your visit to Chile! We hired Joaquin for a day trip to Valparaiso, and were completely satisfied! Joaquin was very knowledgeable, we learned a lot. He took us to a great local seafood restaurant for lunch; a little hole in the wall we never would have found, and the food was great! He was able to pace the trip to our abilities; & take into account some of our limitations. Although we did not do an outdoor adventure with him, Joaquin would be a great guide for an outdoor trip, and is very motivated and enterprising. Five stars!
Freya3. February, 2023.Chilean Holiday Joaquin guided us over the course of four days to Monumento Natural El Morado, Cerro Pintor, Zapallar, and Cerro La Campana. We had a fantastic trip and each day offered a different look at Chile's natural beauty. Joaquin was a great guide; he was was very organized with logistics and knowledgeable on each region we went to. We had a lot of questions on the the ecology, birds, wildlife, and Chilean culture, which was almost always able to answer. He also made really good sandwiches and brought delicious snacks. I would highly recommend booking a tour with this company.
richclift15. January, 2023.Great Adventure on Horseback What a GREAT experience! Therese was wonderful. She truly loves what she does and wishes to share the experience. This tour has been one of the best experiences riding. The Andes are truly beautiful and to have Therese explain the history of the Chilean horse was very interesting. Our horses were very sure footed and responded to our commands. The ride was a pleasure and the scenery was spectacular. When we returned from the ride we had a great time relaxing and talking with Therese. I would definitely recommend this adventure.
Helen S7. January, 2023.Amazing 2 days off beaten track, great hiking in Andes + Valparaiso + fixing a great Atacama trip My tour was great, Joaquin worked out exactly what I wanted to do and was really good at getting off the beaten track, which was exactly what I wanted. Great hiking trip, with no other tourists to be seen, exactly what I was looking for and lovely unexpected touch with the beer and nibbles. He even worked out with me how to fit in a trip to the Atacama desert and fixed me up with a local guide all in the space of one day (on the way to the Andes). I couldn't recommend Joaquin enough, he is awesome.
X2602ECmaryd6. January, 2023.Septuagenarian makes it up to summit When I saw it said up to age 70 I said to myself “Last chance!” ( I turn 71 in May) and although I was apprehensive, I was so proud of myself that I made it up Manqueguito. My adult grandson came with me, and our guide Joaquin was fantastic—knowledgeable and very helpful. I highly recommend this tour.
