A day exploring the Maipo Valley, tasting wines, and talking about the history, landscapes, and wine culture of Chile
Discover the essence of Chilean wine accompanied by a local guide who connects you with the history, culture, and landscapes that gave life to the Maipo Valley.
Santiago is the only capital city in the world with active vineyards, and this tour reveals that unique contrast between city, nature, and tradition.
We visit iconic wineries and lesser-known spots while sharing stories about Chile’s winemaking roots, local life, and the influence of the Andes on the valley’s character.
Designed for those seeking more than a tasting, this experience blends flavors, history, and conversation in a relaxed atmosphere, an authentic journey that brings together wine, culture, and landscape.
Some of our favorite wineries
One of Chile’s most iconic wineries, where history and wine intertwine.
Its century-old park, colonial chapel, and the Andean Museum, with remarkable pre-Columbian collections, make this a complete cultural and wine experience.
Famous for its horseshoe-shaped winery, this boutique vineyard combines architecture, sustainability, and organic and biodynamic wines.
Small, charming, and full of character, this urban boutique winery offers panoramic views of the Andes and a truly personal wine experience.
Chile’s most famous winery, home to the legendary Casillero del Diablo, has recently added a sensory museum that blends history, aromas, and technology. Surrounded by gardens and Andean views, it captures the classic spirit of Chilean wine.
One of the few wineries in the world still owned by its founding family. Located within Santiago, it preserves heritage cellars and 19th-century barrels, offering a mix of city, history, and wine.
