Hello! Thank you for visiting Santiago and its surroundings. I would love to be your guide and connect you with the local culture and people. My name is Paula, I was born and raised in Santiago and since I was an exchange student I have been fascinated by traveling and the opportunities to learn and discover different people and cultures. I have been working in the field of tourism since 2001 in different positions, but my favorite part of the job has been to share my country with visitors from other parts of the world. I also love to design tours and visit places where travelers usually don't go to create a true local travel experience. We may be a small country but full of interesting, funny stories that I would love to share with you: Why do we drink tea and call it time for "onces" (Elevens)? Would you like to have Chilean "onces"? Of course! Let's do that! My favorite tours have history, culture, interaction with locals, local cuisine, and wine and I love not only to talk about that but to taste it! I'm looking forward to meeting you and being able to introduce you to the local Chilean culture. 23 years of experience in tourism as local guide, tour leader, customer services and operations with an international tour operator Certified Local Guide in Central Area of Chile by SERNATUR (Chile's National Tourism Service) Master in Sustainable Management of Touristic Destinations by OMT Bachelor's degree in Psychology. Universidad de Chile. Member of the Profesional Tour Guide Association of Santiago. First Aid Course A course of History of Santiago and Ancient Cultures I prefer not to drive and focus on the tours. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Where would you start to get to know a capital city of eight million people? What I love about Santiago are the hidden neighborhoods, the small streets, the galleries, the local restaurants known as "picadas" and places that normally you would not see. As a local born and raise in this city, I will invite you to use your five senses and walk with me around my home city and discover what it has to offer. Thanks to my background in social psychology, I'll be able to share different topics such as history, politics, art, culture, nature, among others and help you to understang how Chile became Chile. I'll be delighted to help you get the most out of your stay in this part of my country.
