Hola Amigos!!!! Thank you for choosing Santiago as your holiday destination. I am Myriam and I have been working in the field of tourism since 1999 (hotels, restaurants and travel agencies) but I always wanted to be a tour guide. I made my dream come true in 2007, falling in love with my country, my city, its history and its charming and cute places. I also have been leading groups through Chile and Argentina. I am 100% Chilean and I have lived my entire life in Santiago but traveled abroad and through Chile extensively. I would be honored to have the opportunity to introduce my homeland to you. I love welcoming foreigners to the country I love so much and the city where I grew up. I like to share my knowledge about history, wine, people and culture. I will show Santiago and its surrounding areas with tours that I offer, as well as customized tours, tailored to meet your needs, both with a view as a local would see it. Including less crowded places - off the beaten path whenever possible. Since I will share so many stories, maps and images with you I prefer to hire a driver for our private van so I can focus on travelers, also it will give us more time and independence because we don´t need to look for parking space or go back to the same place where the car is parked, the driver will pick us up wherever we need as much as possible. Do you want to learn why are we called the British of South America? Why do we have a sweet tooth? Why people of almost every Latin American country make fun of the Chilean spanish? I invite you to learn this and much more with interesting and juicy stories of Chile. I am looking forward to meeting you in Santiago to give you the most unforgettable travel experience.

Overview of your Santiago tour

The Coastline is located 1 and 1/2 hours from Santiago. On the road we will discover the agricultural area of this region, where you will learn about our agricultural products, typical food and drinks. Along the road we will see Casablanca wine district, known for its Sauvignon Blanc. We will continue driving until we get to Valparaíso an old port with charming neighborhood, declared "World Heritage Site" by Unesco in 2003, city of old trolley buses, Funicular with more than 100 years old. It's a neighbourhood where you can see the italian, german, british and french influence. Mix of architecture and colors that you will enjoy. And great picture opportunities. Valparaiso is hard to describe you just need to have the experience. Walking through the hills is my best recommendation to discover the little corners, stairs going nowhere, artistic murals After Valparaíso we continue to Viña del Mar called the "Garden city" so close to Valparaíso but totally different, more modern and attractive city.

Our day exploring Valparaiso & Viña del Mar was perfect. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel by a very courteous driver in a clean comfortable van. Myriam was a knowledgeable and fun host. She shared so many details about the history of these two cities. We had a great time exploring the streets of Valparaiso on foot. When we showed interest in the street art she took the time to share stories of each of the artists and even brought us to studios where we could meet the artists and purchase work. We highly recommend spending the day with Myriam!

The tour was wonderful. Myriam was great! She even suggested a wonderful local restaurant for lunch which made the day even better. Great information, wonderful personality and super English.

This is a great tour, which I would highly recommend. Myriam is very knowledgeable, and we learned so much on a wide variety of unexpected topics, including the history of Chile, the wine industry and Easter Island. The highlight of the tour was seeing the wonderful street art in Valparaiso (another topic where Myriam excelled) and even meeting one of the artists. The car was very comfortable, and we had a very good driver.

Your Santiago tour itinerary

- Meeting at your place (not near the airport) - Highway to Valparaiso crossing agricultural and wine valleys. - We will see in Valparaiso: Alegre and Concepcion hill (walking it is my suggestion to discover the history, architecture and street art, if you can´t walk we will enjoy the city anyway) main square, Congress of Chile, Head Quater of the Navy and more. We will see in Viña del Mar: coastline, Fonk museum with a moai from Rapa Nui - Eastern Island where we will be learning its history and mysteries. - End of the tour in Santiago or Valparaiso Since I will share so many stories, maps and images with you I prefer to hire a driver for our private van so I can focus on travelers, also it will give us more time and independence because we don´t need to look for parking space or go back to the same place where the car is parked, the driver will pick us up wherever we need as much as possible.
