Tomé la excursión Contrastes De Santiago: Centro Histórico & Cerro Santa Lucía Walking Tour con Best Santiago de Chile Tours y la pasé increíble. El guía fue seco: mezcló historia, anécdotas y tips locales con humor, y el ritmo del paseo fue perfecto. Recorrimos la Plaza de Armas, La Moneda y callecitas con arte; subimos el Cerro Santa Lucía para ver vistas hermosas y sacar fotazas. Me encantó que dieran recomendaciones de comida y barcitos, y que cuidaran la seguridad del grupo. Organización impecable, grupos pequeños y buena onda. Lo repetiría feliz.

Santiago a pie, puro encanto

Franchement, j’ai adoré cette EXCURSION à Santiago avec Best Santiago de Chile Tours. Petit groupe, pick-up pile à l’heure, guide hyper cool et calé. On a grimpé jusqu’au Cerro San Cristóbal, vues de dingue sur la cordillère, balade dans Lastarria et Bellavista, pause empanadas et un p’tit verre de vin local. Rythme nickel, zéro stress, beaucoup d’histoires et d’astuces pour continuer à explorer. Rapport qualité-prix top. Si tu veux découvrir la ville sans prise de tête, je recommande à fond.
