10/10 Way to see Valparaiso
We had considered staying in Valparaiso and decided instead to stay in Santiago and take a day tour. This one was perfect - it ended up just being the two of us, Julio picked us up at our hotel at 8am and drove us down to Valparaiso for a 90-min walk around the historic part of town. Since we were two younger people he was happy to walk with us and took us on some extra loops to see different parts of the town. So beautiful despite the grey weather, Valparaiso is a beautiful but a little gritty seaside town - don’t expect perfect beauty! Julio had switched up the order of the tour for us considering that it was a Sunday and there were some political happenings to make sure we were doing things at the safest time of day. Later, when a part of the coast road was closed for a fun run he was able to quickly offer some great alternatives to us. After a leisurely stop for a lovely lunch we drove partway back to Santiago for the winery stop. This was truly excellent and we bought several bottles to drink later. Would 100% recommend this to anyone, such an expert guide can take great care of you and offer a customized day that lets you see and learn so much more than you could by yourself!
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re delighted to hear that choosing a day trip from Santiago turned out to be a great way for you to experience Valparaíso. One of the advantages of a small-group tour is the flexibility to adapt the day to local conditions, and we’re glad Julio, our guide, was able to make adjustments that enhanced your experience. It’s also wonderful to know you enjoyed exploring the city on foot, discovering different corners of Valparaíso, and ending the day with a visit to the Casablanca Valley winery. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are pleased that your day on the Chilean coast was both enjoyable and memorable.

Great tour outside Santiago
Excellent tour. Pick up was timely. Route to destination was long but scenery. The views to mountains and the Pacific were gorgeous. Both, Viña & Valparaiso, while different, were beautiful and picturesque. We had dinner in Valparaiso and it was excellent. The last stop was a wine tasting and it was not disappointing. Don’t hesitate booking this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad the day outside Santiago offered a good mix of scenery and coastal highlights, and that the differences between Viña del Mar and Valparaíso stood out. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the meal in Valparaíso and the final stop in Casablanca. We appreciate your recommendation and your time with us.

A must do when visiting Chile!
This is an incredible experience you don’t want to miss. The view of the Pacific Ocean, the coastline of Viña del Mar and Valparaíso were breathtaking. Walking down the streets of Valparaíso helped us get a feel of the place. There is so much art everywhere! We saw Pablo Neruda’s house! We had a delicious lunch at a wonderful restaurant suggested by our incredible tour guide, Julio. He is very knowledgeable about Chile and all the places we visited today. Our tour ended with a visit and a wine tasting at RE winery in Casablanca! We highly recommend this tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Casablanca Day Trip from Santiago and the variety of landscapes and experiences throughout the day—from the coastal views to walking through Valparaíso’s streets. It’s great to hear that Julio’s guidance and recommendations, including lunch and the winery visit in Casablanca Valley, added to the experience. We appreciate your recommendation and your visit with us.

Nice guide; mediocre sightseeing
Our guide was very accommodating! The weather turned out to be cold and rainy, and we were ill prepared...so he kindly dropped us at Ripley's so we could purchase fleece tracksuits, even though it meant he had to fight traffic. He recommended a fantastic place for lunch. As for Vina del Mar and Valparaiso...I wasn't thrilled by either. Unfortunately the weather prevented us from walking the beach and Valparaiso was simply gritty and not that interesting. At the end of the day, not worth the money nor the long drive.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that your guide was accommodating and supportive, especially given the unexpected weather conditions. Flexibility is an important part of our Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Casablanca Day Trip from Santiago, and we’re pleased that the assistance and lunch recommendation helped make the day more comfortable. At the same time, we understand that weather can strongly influence the overall experience, particularly in coastal destinations like Valparaíso and Viña del Mar. We appreciate your perspective and your comments, as they help us continue refining our tours.

A Lovely Day Sightseeing
Julio was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Chile and specifically Valparaiso and Vina Del Mar. We had a lovely full day with a seaside lunch in Vina Del Mar and ending with a wine tasting at Emiliana Organic Vineyard. Highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind review and for joining our Valparaíso, Viña del Mar & Casablanca Day Trip from Santiago. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed spending the day exploring the coast with Julio. Combining the colorful hills of Valparaíso, the seaside atmosphere of Viña del Mar, and a wine tasting in Casablanca Valley is a great way to experience this region in one day. We appreciate your recommendation and thank you for traveling with us.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.
How much does Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7) cost?
+
Prices start at $200 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 Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7) take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 195 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 Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7)?
+
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 Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7)?
+
Around 68 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Valparaíso Viña & Casablanca Wine Tasting from Santiago (Max 7) 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.
