サンティアゴ発アンデス半日プライベートハイキング体験

We loved our four hour tour with Joaquin! The views of the Andes and Santiago were spectacular - it was breathtaking. Joaquin was super knowledgeable and shared information about Santiago on the drive up to the mountains. We had a great chat while hiking and Joaquin told us about the local flora and fauna, the history of the area, protected areas, challenges faced with development, and more. I was impressed with Joaquin’s relaxed style - friendly but also calm and steady - he clearly tailors the hikes to his client’s abilities and interests. The trail was muddy from the recent rain but we picked our way through and thanks to the hiking poles he supplied, we made it through with ease. After the hike we enjoyed wine, cheese, olives, chips and chocolates - and more good conversation. The tour was a highlight of our trip to Chile and I would not hesitate to book another tour with Ecordua. As a parting gift, he shared a great dinner recommendation that was also a highlight for the trip. Don’t delay, if you have a chance to book with Ecordua, go for it!

Perfect morning hike. Matias was a knowledgeable and gracious guide. Our little snack/lunch perfectly aligned with my current strict diet. I highly recommend especially if you have been traveling a lot and need some solo time.

What an excellent trip out of the city and a great hike. We really enjoyed views of the city and valleys from the hike, and we enjoyed seeing all the ranches and the horses grazing right beside the hiking trail. Our guide Frank was super knowledgeable about the plant life and Chilean countryside. We also enjoyed the delicious wine and cheese with fresh fruits after the hike. Everything on the tour was just perfect for a half day tour.

We thoroughly enjoyed the hike with Paloma. She was a pleasure to be with and very knowledgeable and helpful. We had delicious treats after. The scenery was beautiful and she adapted the route based upon our abilities. We highly recommend this hike- it gives another perspective of Santiago.

We had a wonderful experience with Ecordua, a small family-run company based in Santiago, Chile, offering a variety of trips with a strong focus on enjoying the outdoors. We joined one of their horseback riding trips as complete novices and couldn’t have felt more comfortable, safe, or well cared for. Our guide, Josefina, was outstanding: a well-trained and highly knowledgeable outdoor guide, but above all genuinely enthusiastic about her country and passionate about sharing her knowledge and love for nature with us. This review is both a thank-you for the lovely experience we had and a way to express our support for small businesses like Ecordua, which promote more sustainable tourism and offer a far more personal and meaningful experience for their guests. We were initially drawn to Ecordua by their neat, clear, and informative website—and we were delighted to find that the experience delivered exactly what was promised. May our paths cross again someday. Highly recommended!

My adult daughter and I booked this as a half day outing when we were in Santiago for several days. Easy to reserve online, and bonus points that Ecordua picks up directly at our hotel! Our guide, Frank, was friendly, knowledgeable, and full of enthusiasm for the outdoor activities available in the greater Santiago area. As others have noted, the hike is rocky and steep for the first 15 minutes or so, but becomes a nice dirt path after that. The provided hiking poles were helpful for stability. When we asked what flora/fauna we might see, Frank gave a short list which included small reptiles, rabbits, and condors. Not five minutes later, a HUGE condor circled right above us, what a tremendous sight! The hike felt good - a moderately challenging hike that left us feeling accomplished, but, not worn out. We enjoyed the wine/cheese picnic after (with yummy strawberries, stuffed olives, chips, etc.), and continued chatting with Frank about the local area, and our trip in general. Really, a lovely outing, we recommend this!

We had a fantastic day with Josefina as our guide. Some epic views with a respectful amount of exercise. I highly recommend

Perfect short hike. It was a little challenging steep in the beginning but leveled off after 15 minutes

It was a terrific 4 mile hike as described. The guide asked if we wanted to modify the planned excursion. She was very accommodating. She was fantastic answering our never ending questions and describing Chilean culture, fauna, and flora. We had a wonderful time.

Frank was excellent! He took care of us and provided a wonderful picnic. Great morning hiking and wonderful views. Highly recommend!
