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.

Two family wineries minutes from the city — 170 years of heritage, Bordeaux pedigree and Andean views
Overview of your Santiago tour
Discover that Santiago itself is wine country. Just minutes from the city, at the foot of the Andes in the Maipo Valley, this full private day pairs two contrasting family wineries, no long drives required. We begin at Cousiño Macul, founded in 1856 and still owned by the same family: explore the historic centenary cellars and enjoy a premium tasting of estate wines with a charcuterie board. After a recommended local lunch, we visit Aquitania, an intimate boutique winery founded by Bordeaux legends — including Château Margaux's Paul Pontallier — for a guided walk from the panoramic viewpoint through the cellars, ending with a tasting of four premium and icon wines framed by vineyards and mountain views. History, Bordeaux pedigree and Andean scenery without leaving the city, guided by a Santiago local with 30+ years of experience, with door-to-door hotel pickup and drop-off.
