Hello! I'm Cristian, a professional tour guide based in Santiago with more than six years of experience leading private tours throughout central Chile in Spanish, English, and Portuguese. I specialize in Santiago, Valparaíso, the wine regions of Maipo, Casablanca, Colchagua, Cachapoal, and Aconcagua, as well as the stunning Andean landscapes of Cajón del Maipo. I also have more than two years of experience guiding travelers in northern Chile (Atacama) and leading tours to the country's southern region (Patagonia). I hold a Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certification, because your safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I am also certified in Sustainable Tourism by Chile's National Tourism Service (SERNATUR), a Wine Tourism Specialist certified by the University of Talca, hold the WSET Award in Wines, and have a degree in Environmental Engineering. My approach is simple: I listen first. Your interests, your pace, and your curiosity shape the experience. No rigid itineraries—just authentic and personalized journeys through central Chile, your way.

Overview of your Santiago tour

Discover the soul of Santiago on foot, from its bohemian heart to the hill that crowns the city. This private walking tour weaves together street art, poetry, panoramic views and authentic Chilean flavours. We start at Plaza Baquedano and stroll into Bellavista, Santiago's most colourful neighbourhood, alive with open-air murals and street art. We stop for a freshly baked empanada at a beloved local spot, then step inside La Chascona — Pablo Neruda's whimsical Santiago house (entrance included). We ride the historic funicular up San Cristóbal Hill for sweeping views of the city and the Andes, taste a traditional mote con huesillo, and descend by cable car. A relaxed walk through leafy Providencia ends at the picturesque Paseo La Villa. Art, poetry, food and city views at a walking pace, guided by a Santiago local with 30+ years of experience.
