Our guide Mauricio was excellent. He was pretty knowledgeable and speaks good English. He made the trip very interesting. Santiago is such an amazing city, people are very friendly and kind. we were pretty concern about the safety and crimes in the city as we were told to be extra careful. We found that in general, the city itself is safe, just need to be cautious about pick-pocket in some areas.

It was great! A nice introduction to Santiago. Guide Stephanie was wonderful - she provided just the right amount of information (not too much, not too little). Driver Alex was also excellent. The included snack was huge (and delicious!), so you might not want to stuff yourself before your tour. I was very happy with this tour.
