Hello and welcome! My name is Marcelo, a Senior Private Guide based in Viña del Mar and Valparaíso, with more than 25 years of experience guiding international travelers throughout Chile. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with visitors from all over the world, especially from the United States and Canada, helping them discover Chile through carefully crafted private tours that combine culture, history, local life, and beautiful landscapes. My tours focus on some of the most fascinating destinations in central Chile, including Santiago, Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, and the renowned wine valleys such as Casablanca and Maipo. Each experience is designed to be relaxed, flexible, and personalized, allowing you to explore at your own pace while discovering both the highlights and the hidden gems that make this region so unique. I specialize in private tours for couples, small groups, and travelers who prefer a more personal and authentic experience. My approach is not simply to guide you through places, but to help you understand the culture, history, and spirit of Chile in a friendly and engaging way. I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and I take great pride in providing a professional, reliable, and welcoming service from the moment we meet. If you are looking for a knowledgeable local guide who truly enjoys sharing his country, I would be delighted to show you the real Chile — beyond the usual tourist routes. I look forward to meeting you in Chile! Marcelo

Relaxation and good taste are the heart of the so-called "Garden City". Its waterfront is ideal for outdoor sports, recreation and high-level gastronomy. You won't stop enjoying the sun, swimming or admiring the sunset in the resorts of Reñaca, Concón and Las Salinas. Let me take you to walk the streets of Viña Del Mar and transport you to the golden age of the last century. The many castles and old mansions of wealthy families have now turned into beautiful museums. Among them, the glamorous Municipal Casino is a must-see at night. The Viña del Mar Song Festival is an iconic event of the city. It takes place every year during February, a wonderful summer show that music lovers can't miss.
I'll pick you up from your hotel, and our adventure in beautiful Viña del Mar begins! First, we’ll visit the iconic Flower Clock, a city symbol surrounded by stunning gardens. Next, we’ll head to Playa de los Cañones, where you can enjoy the golden sands and breathtaking ocean views. We’ll explore Wulff Castle, an architectural gem by the sea, and learn about its fascinating history. Then, we’ll stop at Quinta Vergara Park, home to the famous International Song Festival. Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant with ocean views. In the afternoon, we’ll visit Vergara Square, where you'll find the Municipality Palace and lovely gardens. We'll conclude our tour at Acapulco Beach, enjoying the sunset and the ocean breeze before returning to your hotel, filled with memories of an unforgettable day in Viña del Mar!
