A full day through Chile's most iconic destinations — with a wine experience worth the trip alone. From your hotel in Santiago, you'll visit Viña del Mar (Flower Clock, Easter Island Moai), stop at Caleta Portales where sea lions often rest at the fishing docks, then spend real time in Valparaíso — walking the UNESCO hillside neighborhoods of Cerro Alegre and Cerro Concepción with a guide who knows every story. The day ends at Emiliana Organic & Biodynamic Winery in Casablanca Valley. Chile's most respected organic producer. A guided tasting of 3 wines with local food pairing — not a roadside wine shop, not a rushed pour. The real thing. Your guide is with you every step — not just a driver with a microphone. Someone who has walked these streets hundreds of times and still finds new things to show you. That's the difference you'll feel by the end of the day.

Excellent experience!...
Excellent experience! Cristóbal, our guide, and José, our driver, were incredible. Always with the best energy, very kind and attentive... Cristóbal explained many things to us throughout the entire tour. We enjoyed Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, and the visit to the Emiliana vineyard. 🍷✨ A totally recommended tour!

Great day trip to Valparaiso
A super well organized packed day trip to Valparaiso. Anyone coming to Santiago but not staying in Valparaiso really should book onto a day trip as the area is beautiful and very interesting. The wine tastIng was good as well, Emiliana is a great winery. These guys do it really well and Christobal is relaxed, funny, organised and communicated well. This was the highlight of our time in Santiago, just needed more time (like a week) in Valparaiso!
via Tripadvisor
Even if the good weather...
Even if the good weather wasn’t with us this tour was a good compact way to visit both Vina Del Mar and Valparaiso. A good wine tasting as well. Highly recommend if you are short in time or just want to have a packed day. Our guide Christian was fun and had quircky facts being from this part of Chile!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.
How much does Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard cost?
+
Prices start at $56 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 Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 18 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 Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard?
+
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 Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard?
+
Around 6 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Santiago: Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Emiliana Vineyard 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.
