All the experience from the purchase, to the service and support of the company when contacting us days before the tour to pass information were incredible, the tour then not even talk! Very kind and careful! We indicate too much.
Every bit of it was amazing. From start to finish. Definitely a must do while in Santiago!
As one in the aviation sector, I can attest to the safety and proper communication with passengers carried out by the flight crew. Flying around Santiago and the outskirts was a memorable experience! You have the option of having your unique flight experience recorded from several angles on the aircraft, including a phenomenal photographer on board. Captain Christina is a great pilot (which includes being an excellent communicator) and Daniel who handles the pickup and photography are just amazing! Highly recommend booking your flight session with GEMS =)
