Mixed Experience
We did the 3 Day Luxury Wine Tour in the Colchagua Valley, and it was excellent. Wineries and Guide were top notch. I highly recommend this tour with EcoTours. However, we also arranged for a 2 Day private tour on Easter Island, and it was not good. I booked the tour months in advance, but only a few days before the tour I was notified that no guides were available, so my tour was cancelled. I contacted the hotel I was staying at (since we still were going to the Island), and they had no trouble booking 2 days of private tours for us. I would not recommend using EcoTours for Easter Island, since they obviously did not reserve a tour for us when I made my booking (and paid for it).
Response from the operator: Good afternoon, I told you that there was no availability for private tours with one month of anticipation. If I would have book tours with 20 persons in a bus, you would have been even less happy. I was the person that reccomended you to book directly with the hotel for the private tours at Rapa Nui. I'm happy that you liked the wine tours, the one I was coordinating and operating. Best, Cristian

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.
How much does Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $425 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santiago usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience take?
+
Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santiago is not rushed.
Is Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Santiago, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santiago can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santiago and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santiago within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Santiago?
+
On Outty we rank every Santiago experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Maipo Valley Wine Region: 4 Wineries, Tastings & Foodie Tour, Valparaiso Port and Viña del Mar with Casablanca Wine Tasting, Tour to Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, Pablo Neruda Museum and Vineyard. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Santiago?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Santiago?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience?
+
Included: Wine tasting and tours; Bottled water; Alcoholic beverages; and Lunch. Not included: Tips for driver and guide; and Dinner. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Santiago. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.
What languages is Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Clos Apalta and VIK Winery Private Experience?
+
