A tasting menu - We traveled through several spas in the area, with incredible landscapes and each one with its own attraction. The guide is a local, a fan of Valparaíso, who knows and has a strong will to overcome any unforeseen event that may arise in order to provide a quality experience to the client and no less (we went at the end of the season and we had bad weather that day) Everything was excellent, the empanadas, the views, the contact with the fauna. The pearl: sandboarding. Even if you don't participate, it's a lot of fun! More than recommended. Includes pisco sour and pebre recipe!

Penguins and sand boarding - Jimmy is an excellent & friendly guide, who picked us up on time, took us to see sea lions at the fish market, boat tour to see the penguins, tour of the towns along the way, empanada lunch at the paragliding training center, then off to the Con Con dunes for sand boarding. We had so much fun & education. We highly recommend this tour!

Sea lions and penguins - Great opportunity to see penguins and sea lions in the northern part of the country. Most Chileans don’t even know there is an island protected for penguins so it’s a pretty unique excursion. Finished the tour with delicious empanadas and wine.

Jimmy was an excellent... - Jimmy was an excellent guide. The experiences were unique, and the food was delicious. If you are afraid of the ocean this might not be right for you, as traveling to the penguins is in a small open boat. Sand dune surfing is a great experience for everyone. Bring a wind breaker for the boat ride and flip flops for the dunes. Comfortable clothes that dry quick in case you get wet on the boat ride.

Fantastic trip, highly recommended! - Had an amazing time with Jimmy, Simona, and crew. This experience far exceeded my expectations. Jimmy and his crew are super friendly and clearly love what they do.
They picked us up right on time and took us to the Valparaiso fish market, to Cachagua where we boarded a boat that took us to Monumento Natural Isla Cachagua to see the Humboldt penguin colony. From there we went to Puchuncavi, where they treated us to a delicious lunch of fresh empanadas with homemade treats and drinks and where we got to go paragliding (this was not included in the itinerary but is well worth the extra cost) and finally to Concon for some sand boarding. The trip lasted far longer than I expected, for which we were very happy. All in all a very worthwhile experience and one I highly recommend to anyone visiting Valparaiso.

Flawless experience with Go Penguins! - Such an amazing tour! Jimmy and Simone were very personable and exceeded expectations. From their exceptional customer service to the remarkable experience of interacting with the penguins via boat ride. Our visit was nothing short of extraordinary. 1000% would recommend.

Highlight of our vacation! Highly recommended! - Highly recommend this tour! My husband and I completed this tour with our tour guides Jimmy and Lily, the guides were very knowledgeable, had great communication and we enjoyed their friendliness and humor. The tour gave us an opportunity to see how the locals lived at the fish market and along the beach coastline. We enjoyed the boat ride to view penguins and marvel at the cliffside houses. The lunch provided was delicious (and had the option for a vegetarian meal- which was great!) the sand boarding was a lot of fun, we have never sand/snow boarded before and were able to figure it out no problem. This is a full day of adventure with some driving between each activity, but the vehicle was comfortable and the conversation with our guides was wonderful. This tour was a highlight of our trip!
