A once in a lifetime experience and trip
It is almost impossible to write on such a small block the incredible experience that my friend and I had with Esteban and Marco (our guides). Not only did they make it memorable but they made it enjoyable from pick up to drop off. My friend and I experienced a few of Chile’s incredible wine regions which opened us up to new worlds of wine/experience that we never knew existed. All the places we visited treated us like royalty and was clear in no small part due to Esteban/Marco. I am a confirmed French wine person and very rarely try new things, but I couldn’t be happier that I did and now Chile has a prominent place in my wine closet. As I mentioned we had such a singular/wonderful time that we are telling all our friends in the USA/around the world that they have to go to Chile as soon as possible and have Esteban/Marco show them the beauty of Chile. We can’t wait until our next trip. Gracias por todo.

A memorable visit to a top wine farm.
The tour which was organised to take my husband and I to Undurraga Winery was most professional. We were met by a guide called Carolina who is a wine expert and a lively conversationalist about Chilean wines. Carolina drove us to the Maipo Valley. The tour of Undurraga by Bianca was exceptional. She had a great technical knowledge and took us on a comprehensive tour of the farm completing every aspect of wine making. The farm is very successful and has 5 wine makers with several brands. Our tour finished with a tasting of 4 of their premium wines. Caroline took us to a local restaurant for lunch which was fully inclusive in our price and we arrived back at our hotel by 3pm. This was a memorable experience.

Phenomenal Experience in the Maipo Valley
I traveled to Santiago, Chile for business and my wife was able to join me for the trip. After the work trip we decided to stay for a couple of extra days and the W Santiago helped connect us with Daniel and Esteban at Servitour to do some local tours. I didn't realize that the Maipo Valley was so close to Santiago. Servitour put together a phenomenal wine tour for us on short notice in the Maipo Valley. They spoke fluent English and organized private premium tours at Santa Rita Winery and at Haras de Pirque. These were some of our favorite wine tours we have taken in South America. After the wine tours they took us to a great local lunch spot called La Covacha where we enjoyed sensational local cuisine. The ease in which all of this was put together with Servitour was truly amazing. We had such a wonderful and easy time arranging everything that we asked them to put together another tour the following day on short notice, which they executed to perfection. Our experience in the Maipo Valley rivaled that of Mendoza. We were blown away by the beauty of the wineries and the taste of the wine. We would definitely go back for another great adventure. We can't recommend Servitour enough to you all.
Response from the operator: Dear Robert, What an ABSOLUTELY fantastic review! 🤩 It was a true pleasure for Esteban and me to help you and your wife enojoy the Maipo Valley. We're so happy to hear that the wine tours were highlights of your South American travels, as well as lunch :) We pride ourselves on making everything seamless and enjoyable for our guests, and your kind words truly mean a lot to us. We'd love to welcome you back to Chile for another great adventure whenever you're ready! Thanks again for your incredibly kind recommendation. 🙏

Two great vineyards
This a great excursion from Santiago. Although it does take about 45 min. to an hour and 15 min. to get from the city to the vineyards to the South, it is well worth the trip. Our guide was Esteban. He met us at our hotel & had private transport arranged. On the way to the vineyards, he told us about the neighborhood we’d been staying in as well as Santiago generally. We visited two vineyards - LOF and Haras de Pirque. They were a great contrast to one another but both excellent. We had a tour and tasting of each before lunch. We elected to sample a tasting menu of Chilean foods, and the local restaurant in Pirque was excellent. Great option for couples or families without young children.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing such a wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a fantastic time on your vineyard excursion. Esteban truly enjoys offering personalized experiences, and it's great to know that his insights into Santiago and the vineyards enhanced your trip. LOF and Haras de Pirque are both gems, and we're glad you enjoyed the contrast between the two. The Chilean tasting menu is always a hit, and it’s awesome that the local restaurant lived up to expectations. We hope to welcome you back soon for more memorable experiences! Cheers! 🍷😊

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Maipo Valley Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.
How much does Maipo Valley Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $390 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 Maipo Valley Experience 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 Maipo Valley Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Santiago, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Maipo Valley Experience?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Maipo Valley Experience 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 Maipo Valley Experience?
+
Around 4 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 Maipo Valley 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 Valparaiso Port and Viña del Mar with Casablanca Wine Tasting, Tour to Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, Pablo Neruda Museum and Vineyard, Santiago: Valparaiso, Viña del Mar & Casablanca Wine Tour. 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 Maipo Valley Experience?
+
Included: Transport insurance; Vineyard tour; Premium wine tasting; Local taxes; and Local Guide. Not included: Lunch; and Tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Maipo Valley Experience include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 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 Maipo Valley 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 Maipo Valley Experience?
+
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 Maipo Valley Experience 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 Maipo Valley Experience if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Santiago. Standard cancellation terms apply.
What do travelers say about Maipo Valley Experience?
+
Across 12 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, the guide, knowledge and storytelling. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers.
