Very good tour
Daniel was a very good guide. The winery was excellent and very informative. Also in the city so not too much travelling. The lapis Lazuli factory was very interesting too. There was one other couple on the tourvwith us and we enjoyed the morning.

An Authentic Chilean Wine Experience Without Leaving Santiago
This was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon exploring a local vineyard with the added bonus of a stop to see local lapis artisans work their craft. Daniel was a knowledgeable and friendly guide, and the pickup and drop off was as smooth as possible. Cousiño Macul vineyard has a rich history, which its guides enthusiastically share as you tour the production facilities and cellars. You also have the opportunity to wander through the vineyard itself, known as the Jardín. All of this is just a short drive from the center of the city, yet it feels as though it’s part of the countryside. Those who appreciate the skill of stone shaping will also enjoy seeing the lapis production, and you can of course purchase some to take home if you’d like (there was no pressure to buy which I appreciated. All in all, this tour is highly recommended, especially since you can keep the other half of your day open for additional activities.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We’re delighted to hear that your afternoon at Cousiño Macul, along with the visit to our lapis lazuli workshop, made for such an enjoyable outing. It’s wonderful to know you appreciated both the vineyard’s deep history and the chance to explore the Jardín area—it’s a special place that really does feel far from the city. We’re also glad the lapis artisans’ work added something unique to your day, and we appreciate your note about the no-pressure environment. Thank you as well for your kind words about Daniel and the smooth pick-up and drop-off; we always aim to keep the experience relaxed and seamless. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Chile! Warm regards, The Gems of Chile Team

Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.
How much does Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup cost?
+
Prices start at $97 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 Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup?
+
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 Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 9. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup?
+
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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Winery Tour & Tasting + Lapis Lazuli Craft Visit + Hotel Pickup 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 Tour with 4 vineyards from Santiago., Valparaiso Port and Viña del Mar with Casablanca Wine Tasting, 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.
