Patrick was so fantastic to deal with, from start to finish. I only had a few hours between flights and he managed to show me more than I could have imagined around the city. His knowledge of the history of Santiago is very impresive. 10/10 recommend Patrick if visiting Santiago!Made the most with a short amount of time

Cristóbal is an excellent and knowledgeable guide. He toured us around the city and gave us lots of information about things we would not otherwise know or find out easily. He took us to local places to eat delicious food and told us about the history of the markets. We walked through parks, cultural areas and we saw beautiful buildings. More than that we fun with him because is a lovely person. Nothing was too much trouble and he continued to give us advice on how to get to our next destination and what to watch out for. The bar and restaurant recommendations he gave us for our evening were also excellent- now we have a pisco sour headache 🤣 He’s a really awesome guide and we totally recommend doing this tour with Cristóbal!

Great historical knowledge, engaging. Very caring. We started our tour as visitors and ended it as good friends/family. Cristóbal showed us the highlights of Santiago, a variety of different locations and ended up in a great location for lunch. He answered all of our questions very thoroughly and thoughtfully. We had an excellent afternoon and would highly recommend a tour with Cristóbal! Cristóbal, please come and visit us in Canada!We loved our afternoon with Cristobal!

Cristobal went out of his way to plan an amazing day out for us to fully experience Santiago and Valparaiso. We had a short stopover and Cristobal managed to cram in a food & history tour of central Santiago followed by an afternoon exploring the alleyways and street art in the hills of Valparaiso finishing with a lovely evening meal in a backstreet restaurant. Cristobal has an extensive knowledge of Santiago/Chilean history along with a true foodies love and appreciation of everything edible to be found in the city (including a few sweet highlights from the south). A superb experience, we highly recommend a day out with Cristobal.The Full Santiago Experience

We asked Cristobal to show us some of his Santiago favorites, a bit “off the beaten path” - and he delivered! We saw some beautiful plazas and learned lots of history, enjoyed a classic cafe, and ventured to the fish market for a delicious lunch. We were traveling with two young children, and Cristobal was flexible, patient, and understanding throughout. I would recommend Cristobal to anyone visiting Santiago. have fun! Knowledable, friendly, flexible!

We spent 3 hours with Claudia who guided us in Santiago in French. Claudia knows every details of this city and it is worth to hear the stories from a local guide. It gives you to taste the city from its inside and with the historic background. Claudia makes it fun and interesting at the same time. Perfect guide that I deeply recommend. Wonderful visit with a passionate guide

Claudia is very knowledgeable and she doesn’t just give you the historical story but includes recent discoveries, and opposing opinions. I felt much more informed about Chilean history and Santiago after the tour and had a few good laughs with Claudia. The only reason I don’t give it full marks is because the tour could have been a bit more personalised - especially the first hour that we spent on the same square.Great guide. Could be more personalised

We had a great three hour food tour with Patrick. He did not only explore food with us we would never have tasted (Patrick focused on every day local food). He also explored with us Cerro Santa Lucía giving us a lot of interesting historical Information. Had we had more time in Santiago, we would have booked another tour with him.Fun, knowledgeable and easy going

It was a great experience. Claudia is a fantastic source of knowledge about Santiago’s history, its past and present and its little, and not so little, secrets. I learnt more about the city and the country in these three hours than I had about other places in days! What I liked in particular about Claudia is her energy, enthusiasm and obvious love for her country which she shares in a very entertaining manner. Thank you Claudia. Hope to come back to Santiago one day.First time in Chile

This was my first time in Santiago (first time in Chile, at all) and honestly I didn’t know what I should be doing/seeing or even much of the history. Travel websites weren’t very helpful bc they all suggest excursions that take you out of the city, but I wanted to SEE the city I was staying in! Patrick has an absolute wealth of knowledge ranging from history to architecture to nature and even the weather! We had great conversation and he was extremely friendly/helpful. Will absolutely be booking again the next time I’m in Chile! 🇨🇱 Friendly and knowledgable!

I flew to Chile to ski for a few days and decided my last day would be spent getting acquainted with Santiago. By pure chance and great luck I happened to see Amalia in Withlocals and chose her to give me 8 hours of Santiago. I couldn’t have been happier with our time together, her knowledge of the city’s history and her friendliness and consideration in making my time special in her city. I highly recommend Amalia - you won’t be disappointed! Rick Klass, SLC, Utah Amalia Melissa - my best guide ever!

He gave us great insight into different neighborhoods, introduced us to spots we never would’ve found on our own, and shared amazing restaurant recommendations that we’ve already started trying. The food was delicious and varied, and the tour really helped us get our bearings in the city. If you’re thinking about booking, definitely book with Christóbal.

Alvie and driver picked us up at the hotel exactly as scheduled. He shaped our tour to fit our interests and to satisfy our curiosity about Santiago. He provided depth and insight into a country that my friend and I knew little about. And, he was careful to ensure our safety and security as we toured all parts of the city. I liked the personal touch, the detailed information and the comprehensive experience. From the funicular and cable car to the governmental center, Alvie ensured that we had a positive experience.Worthwhile few hours with an expert!
