Great tour. Great tour guide - The tour itself was wonderful. Welll worth seeing island Negra. Our guide Nacho was a charming young man who was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. He took us to a charing place for lunch. He was punctual and attentive but also gave us time to explore on our own. We really appreciated the balance.

Wonderful experience! - Such a fantastic experience! We saw and learned so much! Luis and Becky made it such an embracing experience. More like good friends than guides.

Isla Negra pleasant surprise - Great guides! They gave a Chile class, very attentive and took us to some really cool places… highlighting lunch in a village with typical food.

Fun day trip! - An excellent trip! I had a great time chatting with Luis, the guide and driver. He told me about the changes in Santiago during and after COVID and how he thinks it affected daily life. As for Isla Negra, the house is beautifully maintained and has a lot of fun, quirky aspects to it. (La Chascona is another quirky Neruda house in Santiago.). Pomaire is a nice little place to see ceramics, one pound empanadas, and pastel de choclo (chicken and beef pie with corn bread crust).

I was only interested in Neruda's house - I only had one driver. There were no guides and I think you miss details of the trip. Neruda's house is very nice and very interesting. It is done with an Audio Guide, the entrance is included. Personally, the rest I didn't like.

Trip was Canceled without notifying me - There were no memorable parts, unfortunately. I had deliberately--at some cost--extended my stay in Santiago JUST to take this trip, and the morning of the trip I waited 1-1/2 hours for a pickup which never came. After continually trying to contact the tour operators, I enlisted the help of my hotel staff, only to learn, several hours later, that the trip had been cancelled. My tour fee is being refunded, but the additionally costs I bore as a result of extending my stay for this tour, of course, were not.
