5.0 Santiago
Jody_K, March 2026
We booked a 4 1/2 hour tour with pick up at our hotel. What transpired was closer to a 7 hour tour with our wonderful guide Fernando. He was well versed in all things Santiago, and not only took us to the main sights but also some out of the way gems! The communication ahead of time via WhatsApp was invaluable. I highly recommend this tour.
5.0 Great start to seeing Santiago

Eugenie was very friendly and very knowledgeable and gave a great tour of old Santiago and finished up in guiding us to some thumping bars and a great restaurant
5.0 Great tour!
fatimafU1804JP, March 2026
Santiago is beautiful! This tour really goes in depth and allows you to see a large portion of the city in a relatively short period of time. Fernando is a great tour guide and he is very knowledgeable about the city!
5.0 Love Santiago and South America!!

Our Viator Santiago Chile experience was spectacular. We learned so much about Chile and South America. Eugene was prompt with contact and response.

5.0 Fantastic Tour of Santiago
Voyager303855, February 2026
We had a fantastic tour of Santiago with Eugene. He was an excellent tour guide - enthusiastic, knowledgeable and interesting. We learnt so much about the history, geography and culture of Santiago. Would highly recommend this tour.
5.0 A great way to explore Santiago in a half day.
William C, February 2026
We had a fantastic tour conducted by Fernando today. Collected at specified time at our hotel and vehicle used was perfect for our tour.
Fernando initially took us around various neighbourhoods, explaining all information along the way, using excellent English. Our first main stop was at Bicentenario Parque where we saw black neck swans and enjoyed a pleasant stroll around.
Thereafter we travelled to Metropolitan Parque of San Cristobal Hill where we used the cable car to the top station and walked to the imposing Virgin De La Immaculada Concepcion statue. Amazing views of the whole of Santiago.
Next stop was the historic center where we initially visited an interesting coffee shop ( Coffee with Legs !) Coffee was very good and not something we have ever seen in UK. Afterwards we visited all of the historic sites on foot. Fernando provided a wonderful commentary, providing lots of information and highlighting lots of Chile's history and important figures and characters. At the conclusion of the tour we were dropped off back at out hotel.
Fernando was superb. His knowledge and enthusiasm of the country's history and important figures was amazing.
An absolutely brilliant tour conducted by Fernando.
Thank you all !

Steve_C, February 2026
Gave us a much better appreciation for Santiago. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and made sure that everyone had a great experience.
2.0 Boring
Ann_C, February 2026
We were driven through some so called high end neighborhood, why? I am a tourist and couldn’t care less about where the nicest houses are. Went to a park to look at swans with black heads, waste of time. Rode the cable car to the top, was crowded beyond belief!! And why wouldn’t you include the ticket for this in the tour price, instead of making us wait in line and buy our own tickets??
Did go downtown to see the capital building, Presidents home etc… interesting. The guide had little to know facts while riding in the hot van.
Would not suggest this tour.
5.0 Learned a lot about Santiago and Chile on this tour
Raluca_M, February 2026
The tour was off to a good start with a timely (and even well ahead of time!) pick-up at the hotel. We then drove through the upscale neighborhoods of Santiago, which were also interesting to see as they are quite far from the tourist spots. The first stop was at the Bicentennial Park, where one can spot black-neck swans and koi carps. We also visited a lapis lazuli shop with fantastic products made of this typical Chilean stone. Then, the tour continued in the downtown of Santiago in Plaza de la Moneda and Plaza de Armas, and it was nice walking on the pedestrian streets therein. The driver and guide Fernando was very knowledgeable on all possible topics and I have learnt a lot about Chile's geography, history, politics, and gastronomy!

M72R, February 2026
Our very first day in Chile was a warm and beautiful day and Fernando made it a special memorable day.
He came on time in a nice vehicle we were informed earlier by WhatsApp message promptly.
Before laying out the plan for the day Fernando opened a beautiful long map of Chile and gave us the geography, history and cultural information of the city. We and the other guest were so impressed we wanted to experience more of the country.
Because of the time of the year we had a long wait at the gondola but thanks to Fernando he kept us informed and amused by telling many things.
We highly recommend this tour.
5.0 Do not miss this tour!

1.0 Immense Dissapountment
LisaAnn528, February 2026
There apparently was a substitute guide as we were not taken by Eugene or his colleague who were highly rated. Basically he took us to a lovely park and Centro BUT did not take us to most of the listed places on the itinerary. We went to a very touristic lapis store with heavy pressure to buy touristy items and also a fast food, terrible restaurant, rather than an authentic one, as advertised. I was extremely disappointed and waste of time on my first day in Santiago
. I wrote Eugene to let him know of my experience and I did not receive a response. I had an amazing tour today with a different company of Valparaiso and they kindly made up for all that I missed on the city tour and not only took me to the places listed on the itinerary that we were not taken to other fabulous sites, as well. This was not a city tour, but literally a tour of Centra only. Very deceiving. Strongly don’t recommend.
5.0 Great half day Santiago tour with Eugene!
ABHINAV_J, February 2026
Our guide was Eugene. He had planned this short half day tour pretty well and in a very organized way. He showed us main points in Santiago + cable car to the top point. He was v knowledgable about the spots and walked us through the history!
4.0 Good tour

5.0 Awesome Santiago experience
dougrH4100LL, February 2026
Eugene did an awesome job!! We had a group of 11 and he took us to some amazing stops! We appreciate him offering to take photos, especially of a group of us that were all on the Regent cruise. He was incredibly knowledgeable, and answered questions from ranging from geography and history to economics and law. I would highly recommend taking this tour.
5.0 Lovely afternoon in Santiago!
Adrienne_C, February 2026
My guide was Fernando however, Eugene was I believe, operates this tour company. They made sure I could make the tour’s start time since I was flying in that morning.
We had a great time even fed the birds and black necked swans! We took in most of the major sites and road the cable car to San Cristobal!

5.0 City tour with Evelyn
55MarkL, January 2026
Our Guide Evelyn was just super. Informed and helpful in scheduling tour. She was even nicer in person. She gave us a good feel for the history of the city, current developments and things to do. In addition, she was just fun.
Remember Santiago is very large--8 million people. Its history really started changing with return to democracy in 1990s. It is not your normal colonial influenced city.
Great recommendations on food and drinks as well.
5.0 Wonderful overview of Santiago
GrandTour729191, January 2026
We took a very informative and interesting tour of Santiago with Eugenio, lasting 4 1/2 hours with several stops to see highlights of the city. We visited from north to south of Santiago; guide was very knowledgeable not only about the city but also the history and culture of Chile. Car was clean and air conditioned, water supplied. Only extra cost was a gondola ride for view. Highly recommend for couples and family.
5.0 A comprehensive introduction to the city.
aa2c, January 2026
Juan Carlos took us to a wide range of parts of the city. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Santiago and of Chile. He had helpful suggestions of things to see during the remainder of our stay.
5.0 Great overview!
charismercer, December 2025
Wonderful overview of Santiago! We wanted to see as much as we could, with some evening time to ourselves, and this for the bill. Our driver, Juan, was excellent; really knowledgeable and able to answer all questions about history and all the sights. He arrived to pick us up promptly as scheduled. We went to St. Lucia Hill, then down to the square (City Center). We stopped at a lapis lazuli house with an opportunity to buy jewelry and carved figurines (Juan then took the other two couples back to their hotel as they were tired from an overnight flight), then went to ride the cable car up to San Cristobal Hill. The views were incredible, and we had some time to spend in the tiny chapel beneath the statue of Santa Maria.
Highly recommend this if your time is limited but you still want to see Santiago.

Very disappointed
5.0 Santiago half day tour
Paul_O, December 2025
Even though we booked last minute, Juan was able to adjust the itinerary to get us to one of our 'must see' attractions that wasn’t part of original plan. Then added an 'off the beaten path' attraction that was a highlight.

Bobby12321, December 2025
Our driver/tour operator was Fernando. He did a very good job of taking us around Santiago and showing us all the important sites of the city including San Cristobal. He is highly knowledgeable about the history of Santiago & Chile. Highly recommend this tour.

Tour was sensational, we did with the guide Alejandra who gave us many tips about the city!!In addition, it was possible to see the shift of guards in the center of Santiago, which made everything more interesting.Super recommend!
5.0 Fantastic tour — felt like spending the day with friends!
747v_clavp, November 2025
We had an absolutely wonderful day in Santiago! Our guide Cristian and his father, who was also our driver, were both amazing — friendly, knowledgeable, and full of positive energy.
They showed us the best of the city, shared a lot of interesting facts and local stories, and made the whole experience truly special. It felt like spending the day with great friends rather than just a tour.
Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience — we loved every moment! 🇨🇱✨
5.0 BEST TOUR & GUIDE EVER!

5.0 Great Tour
nicolesP4614IO, September 2025
Eugene was a great guide. I really appreciate that he didn't cancel the tour, even though it was only me on a cloudy, cold Sunday. He was more worried about the weather than I was and how that impacted the tour for me. He really wanted to make sure that I could see and do everything that he had planned. I just wanted to see some of the city with a local guide and certainly got that. It was nice to spend a good chunk of the day with him and see interesting parts of Santiago.

5.0 Wonderful tour
penguinat4, August 2025
Great experience overall with Eugene! He messaged us before the tour to confirm details and then picked us up promptly at the designated location. He had a route planned for the entire tour but was more than flexible for any additions or changes we requested. For example, he let me buy some unique souvenirs a bit off the beaten path and led us to a location with specific food items such as completos at our request. Would recommend to anyone who wants a great overview and tour of the city.
5.0 A great tour
620davinar, July 2025
Eugene is a wonderful tour guide. He will send you a text via the App and on WhatsApp, the day before your trip, which i really like. He is professional and so knowledgeable. I had a fantastic trip and learnt so much about beautiful Santiago and it's history. Thank you Eugene for helping me create wonderful memories. Highly recommend.

1.0 Avoid at all cost
Necrisha_R, June 2025
The tour guide contacted me the day before the tour to find out if he could start the tour 2 hours earlier than what was advertised. Unfortunately we could not because we were getting in to Santiago with enough time to get to the hotel, freshen up before the start of the tour. He showed up to the airbnb early anyway and was expecting us to be ready and of course we were not. He then tried to convince us tk reschedule the tour because "you all are probably tired". We were not and couldn't reschedule because we had tours planned for the rest of our days in Santiago.
The tour was supposed to last 5 hours and we were done in 2.5 hours. He took us to see the Mary Immaculate statue (we paid for our lift tickets). He then drove to a parking garage in the city where we walked by the court house and another building that was rebuilt after a fire. We then went to a square with a cathedral and that was the end of the tour. Very little information about the city and it flet like he had somewhere else to be. This tour should be removed from the tours offered by Viator. This is not the only review that talks about him providing poor service and when you have limited time in a city, you just can't risk having a bad tour.
This man is a scam and a hustler and should be avoided at all cost. I am well traveled and use Viator to book tours so I know what to expect.
5.0 Making memories in Santiago, Chile
692greshamg, June 2025
My tour guide, Eugene Vasquez, was the best. Communication was on point; he responded promptly through email and Viator. He arrived on time, and his vehicle for the private tour was clean. And the tour for the day was magnificent. I explored different sites and captured fabulous photos and moments, and it wouldn't have been possible without Eugene. He even speaks fluent Englis,n which helps as well. My trip was complete and memorable because of his help. I highly recommend this tour to everyone visiting the city, and have already recommended it to my friends and colleagues.
5.0 Wonderful half day tour in Santiago
KOOSEMAIL, June 2025
We had a half-day Santiago city tour with Eugene. He was really awesome, efficient, attentive and very responsive. Learned a lot of history of the city.
