This experience was lovely. They were on time to pick me up from my hotel. The pre-tour communication was excellent. Alvaro was an excellent guide and Alenjandro was an excellent driver. I enjoyed the tour.
Thank you so much for your kind review 😊 We’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the experience and appreciated the punctual pickup and communication before the tour. Álvaro and Alejandro will be delighted to know you valued their work and professionalism. We hope to see you again soon!
good experience but I feel the cost is more for transport than tour guide or the view. Not much snow on the top of the mountain and it is just a 30min walk around the dam. Then the chocolate house was more a stop for ice cream and 3min photo for the building. Coming back around 3pm annd don’t understand why it needs a full day.
Thank you for your feedback 😊 We understand your comments regarding the timing and pace of the tour. We aim to offer a balanced experience, but some passengers prefer to take more time at each stop, which is why the schedule is planned this way. We truly appreciate your observations and hope you still enjoyed the overall experience.
Not to be missed if you are in Santiago! There are Tours that take you from 50 usd very good!
¡Muchas gracias por tu recomendación! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste la experiencia y que la consideras imperdible para quienes visitan Santiago. Agradecemos que hayas compartido tu opinión.
Two nights before we got a second confirmation. The next day we were flying to Santiago. At 830am they sent an email that they didn’t have enough for the trip but had an alternate trip. We got off the plane at noon and I replied yes. Then at 5pm I was told that i had responded too late and they had canceled us and refunded the tour. We were left with nothing!! And all trips were booked. Terrible customer service!
We would like to clearly clarify the situation. The original tour was officially canceled, and this information was communicated at 8:30 am, early in the day. At that same time, an alternative tour option was offered, with the clear indication that it was subject to availability. We did not receive a response until later in the afternoon, at which point the alternative tour was already fully booked and no longer available. Given this, we immediately offered two clear solutions: rescheduling for another date or a full refund, which was processed accordingly. While we understand that changes to travel plans can be frustrating, we acted promptly, communicated early, and provided all possible alternatives within the available time frame. We appreciate your understanding and remain committed to providing clear communication and fair solutions to our passengers. Kind regards, GO 2 CHILE Team

Lamentamos que o tour inicial não tenha ocorrido por não atingir o número mínimo, mas ficamos muito felizes em saber que a opção alternativa foi uma ótima escolha. Álvaro ficará muito contente com sua recomendação, vamos compartilhar suas palavras com ele. Agradecemos a confiança e esperamos recebê-lo novamente no Chile!
Punctual agency with schedule and good communication. He delivered everything in the ad. The tour had cultural presentation at the end and picnic. We love it!
Muito obrigado pelo seu comentário! Ficamos felizes em saber que a agência foi pontual, manteve uma boa comunicação e entregou tudo o que foi anunciado. Que bom saber que vocês adoraram o passeio, o piquenique e a apresentação cultural. Esperamos recebê-los novamente em breve!
This was honestly one of the best experiences of my life! The tour guide was an expert, got us to multiple stops all within the timeframe, and made sure we had plenty of food, water, and bathroom breaks. There were others in my group that were nice. The beauty of the lagoon is truly stunning, and they pick you up right outside your hotel which is nice in foreign country. I would 100% do this again, thank you again for the experience!
Thank you so much! We’re thrilled to hear you had such an amazing experience and enjoyed the lagoon, the stops, and the convenience of the pickup. We’d love to welcome you again anytime! 😊
It was exhilarating to go on the Los Libertados highway with all its hairpin bends! Seeing the majestic Andes Mountains up close was one-of-a-kind experience.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear that the drive through Los Libertadores and the stunning views of the Andes made such an impact. It truly is a unique adventure. We hope to see you again for more unforgettable moments!
Nice experience all spectacular the driver and guide very friendly, attentive, Mr. Braulio, all the places we were well served. Thank you, hon.
¡Muchas gracias por tu comentario! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste la experiencia y que Braulio hizo tu día tan agradable. ¡Esperamos verte de nuevo pronto!
