Visite guidée privée d'une journée à Valparaiso et Viña del Mar

Hector and Raul were an 11 on a 10 scale. Knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to share all of their extensive information on Chile, Santiago, Valparaiso, Patagonia, and the history of it all. Our drive and walk through the barrios of Valparaiso was NOT something we could have done on our own, even as experienced travelers. They knew the exact spots to get out and walk, and are excellent drivers through a maze of hills and tiny roads. Very fine gentlemen to whom we give the strongest recommendation. It’s worth it.

Excellent service in Santiago de Chile and its surroundings. Personalized service and highly qualified staff.

This was the second time my wife, Leah, and I have had the pleasure of using Hector Medina’s tour services in Santiago, Chile. The first time was in 2017, and after such a wonderful experience, we knew exactly who to call when we returned in June 2026. I reached out to Hector in April to see if he was still guiding tours and shared with him what our group wanted to experience. There were six of us—three couples—and Hector put together seven or eight different itinerary options for us to choose from. Once we made our selections, he handled everything with professionalism and attention to detail. Hector was incredibly easy to work with. Whenever we wanted to make a change or adjust our plans, he was flexible and happy to accommodate us. His knowledge of Chile, attention to our needs, and genuine desire to make sure we had a great experience made the trip completely stress-free. If you’re planning a visit to Santiago or anywhere in Chile and want a knowledgeable, dependable, and friendly guide, I highly recommend Hector Medina and Hector Tour Services. He took outstanding care of our group, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again. Ted and Leah Teague

This was an absolutely fabulous tour. We got to see things we would never have done on our own, were able to adjust the tour to include things that interested us, and generally had a wonderful time. Our guide was helpful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We loved every minute!

We had a wonderful day starting in Santiago where the company picked us up right on time. The driving, knowledge and communication were all top notch throughout the day including sharing just the right spots to take photos. We visited a vineyard where we were treated so well and then a walking tour around Valparaiso and lunch overlooking the ocean in Vina del Mar. Overall it was a wonderful day and exactly the professionalism and personal touch we were looking for. Would hire this company again in the future and I would recommend to a friend.

This was the best money I have ever spent on a private tour! My husband and I hired HecTour for the day because we wanted to explore Valdivia, Viña del Mar, and make a stop at a winery. We were interested in something that was private and flexible. Our guide arrived at our hotel right on time with a very nice clean and comfortable vehicle stocked with water. He was so knowledgeable and informative, as well as ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the day. We had never been to the area and it was the way to go— you will learn a ton! I’ve done group tours before and sometimes it takes over an hour to pick up everyone from their hotels before you ever even go anywhere! Spend a little extra and book these guys! You will be so happy you did.

A memorable trip with a very knowledgable guide.

Knowledgeable guide and great pace on Valparaiso tour. Valparaiso was the highlight.

The day trip to Valparaiso from Santiago was a highlight of our time in the Santiago area. This is a must do experience if spending time in this area of Chile. The city is very unique and walking through the streets and gazing at the murals with the ocean in the background is wonderful. Our tour service was very knowledgeable about the region and took us to all the right highlights of this city.

Valparaiso is a must see for a unique experience and amazing, unique art. Our private guide provided lots of information and history about Chile as we drove in the Valparaiso town and beach areas. The highlight of the trip was walking around the UNESCO designated portion of Valparaiso, where narrow streets are lined with artistic buildings and historic architecture. Our guide showed us the most famous murals and unique artistry. It was an excellent and enjoyable tour.
