Unorganized and not very good communication
First wine tasting at Laura Hastings was amazing! However, the communication leading up to the wine tour was poor with no itinerary given beforehand. The second winery we went to, we had to pay for out of pocket, not included with the price. Overall, there are probably better tours out there.

Great day out
We had a personal guide and driver. We visited two wineries and lunch at another. They also took us at our request into Santa Cruz town where there was a wine festival. Very good driver and guide and car. Very well worthwhile.

Very Frustrating Experience
Two days before our tour we were notified by Trip and Tour Turismo that they no longer work with Expedia. We had booked the tour thru Chase Travel (via Expedia), and T&TT were to cancel the reservation so we would pay again after the tour. Little did we know that we would be overcharged for the experience because the Chase Travel rate is higher than the direct Trip and Tour Turismo rate listed on their site. We requested a refund for the difference weeks ago and this has still not been resolved. As for the tour itself, unfortunately our guide had to cancel on us the day of due to issues arising from the demonstrations in Santiago. However we still went on our Colchagua Valley trip with the T&TT driver. The driver was very courteous, but spoke limited English. So there was no tour to speak of from T&TT except for being driven to Colchagua and taken to 3 vineyards, and one vineyard tour which we had to pay out of pocket for. Instead of paying the very high price for this tour, I would recommend that you rent a car from Santiago and drive to Santa Cruz yourself. You can also take one of several buses that go to the Colchagua Valley which are very reasonably priced. In Santa Cruz you should be able to use Uber or hire a taxi to the vineyards.

Excellent service, people, and tours
We had been to Santiago a couple of years ago and this time wanted to visit some wineries in the Colchagua valley. I contacted several companies, some who months later have not bothered to reply, along with a few that would not accommodate my preferred wineries. I reached out to Trip and Tour Turismo and Daniela answered all my questions and we arranged our tour to the Colchagua Valley. As we were disambarking from a cruise ship in San Antonio the prior day, I also arranged for a private transfer to the hotel with a stop at a winery (and left it to them) along with a lunch stop and requested we be at the hotel around 3 p.m.. We left the ship and our guide Viviana was waiting for us at the appointed time. After a stop at Concho Y Toro and lunch we arrived at the hotel at precisely 3 p.m. I still am amazed at how they timed that so perfectly. The next day we were picked up at 9, again the lovely Viviana was to be our guide, and visited 3 wineries as requested. Our driver Andy was very safe and courteous. Finally, after not hearing back from another company that I had made a tenative reservation to take us to the airport 2 days later, I again contacted Daniela who was able to arrange our airport transportation. By reading thru Trip Advisor you will see there are a lot of companies that offer wine tasting tours. Some apparently are not interested in one's business since they don't respond, others want to fit you in their predefined format. I highly recommend Trip and Tour Turismo - they are a small, responsive company that provides excellent service and at a very competative price point. The next time we are in Santiago I will not need to spend any time researching tour companies as it would be hard to beat this one!

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Colchagua Valley: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.
How much does Colchagua Valley cost?
+
Prices start at $298 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 Colchagua Valley take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Colchagua Valley worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 4 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 Colchagua Valley?
+
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 Colchagua Valley suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Colchagua Valley?
+
Around 1 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Colchagua Valley 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 Colchagua Valley?
+
Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; On-board WiFi; Alcoholic beverages; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Colchagua Valley include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 4 listed pickup locations in and around Santiago. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Colchagua Valley offered in?
+
It is offered in Portuguese, 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 Colchagua Valley?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Colchagua Valley wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Colchagua Valley if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Santiago. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Colchagua Valley?
