Amazing 5* tour

What a wonderful tour! Tom was waiting for me in the hotel lobby and we were soon on our way. Not a minute of this fabulous tour was wasted - my tour with Tom felt like being with a very well informed and knowledgable friend rather than being "just a tourist". I saw so much, learnt so much, everything I saw and did made me want to visit beautiful Santiago again. Tom was the perfect guide (and takes great photos too). Needless to say, I would 100% recommend Huaso Tours - and if I am lucky enough to return to Chile I would definitely book with them again.

Awesome tour!

Laura was an excellent guide! She provided a personalized tour of the city. She is well versed in the history of Chile. I had the opportunity see landmarks, take memorable photographs and went to a famous Cafe.

Excellent walking tour with Tómas!

We had an excellent tour with Tómas! He guided us all around the main sights of central Santiago, providing a ton of information about the history and culture. He also pointed out some great spots for food, coffee, pisco, and ice cream which were indeed excellent (we came back later!). The pickup from our hotel was smooth and on time. Highly recommend!

Do this tour if you want to experience the local Santiago vibe of the city!

Cristian gave us a wonderful tour of Santiago. We really got to experience the vibe of the city while learning about the culture. Cristian was receptive to our requests to ride the local subway, visit churches and even try a sweet Chilean treat. We had limited time in the city, so it was wonderful to have a tour to optimize our experience. I would highly recommend this tour!

The best walking tour to experience the city.

Claudio was our guide and the whole trip experience was amazing. Claudio showed up early to our hotel, contacted the front desk who then notified us. We went over the tour duration and was not rushed at all. Claudio was patient, friendly and professional. He showed us various places of interests, explained the history and brought us to some unique places to try out the local delicacies. What sets him apart was the passion he had for the city and its history. It was like visiting a good friend who's very excited to show you the place he lives at. One area/street of the city was a little shady and Claudio warned us ahead of time, gave us tips such as not taking our cell phones out and made sure we felt safe with him for that short duration.

Start your trip to Santiago with this tour.

Superb! Claudio was not only a terrific tour guide but also took some fun candid pics of our family visiting some of Santiago’s neatest places. We started our trip with this tour and I cannot think of a better foundation for our spring break visit to Chile. Claudio was insightful, knew a lot of history, where to take us, and most of all was fun. Very glad we booked this tour!

Great way to see Santiago

Juan was a wonderful tour guide for one adult and two teens walking around Santiago. He was knowledgable about sites and history. Shared about the complicated history of the country. Saw many different neighborhoods, cathedral, fishmarket, government buildings, public library, rode the metro, Plaza de Armas, Santa Lucia, Parroquia de la Veracruz, and ended at the bottom of San Cristobel where he left us to ride the funicular to the top. We had a lovely meal at the fishmarket at a place he recommended.

Highly recommend the private walking tour of Santiago.

Highly recommend the private walking tour. Our guide, Christian, was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. If you enjoy history and learning about the city you're visiting, you should request Christian as your guide.

Really nice, relaxed tour!

Very relaxing tour through the more historic areas and government buildings of Santiago, as well as a stroll through the extensive downtown interior mall and lovely downtown park located on a hill. Claudio was knowledgeable and personable and not at all in a hurry. Some of the buildings we would have loved to enter were closed because of the change of government that occurred just a day before. But, Claudio also was well informed and easily answered questions we had about the political side of the Country and the changes over many years. Extremely nice afternoon followed by a late afternoon meal in the outside garden at Liguria. AND, we have many lovely photos to remember our cultural day; thank you Claudio!
