Very good experience! - I totally recommend the tour. We met Sebastián, an excellent guide who shared with us very valuable information about the places we visited and Chilean culture in general. He was very patient in waiting for us to visit all the places in our path while he provided the necessary accompaniment. Everything went more than well regarding the schedule, he was super punctual at the pick-up time and we had no problems. Also, the recommendations for places to have lunch were very good! Finally he was very kind to send us some photos he took during our tour. Everything excellent!

The best Neruda tour imaginable - This was an outstanding private tour. My guide, Sebastian, was knowledgeable, patient and kind. He was hugely informative, sharing extensive information about Neruda's life and work, as well as about the area and Chile in general. He was extremely patient and generous, allowing me as much time as I wanted to explore Neruda's two homes and during our relaxed walk through Valparaiso's stunning bohemian areas. Tours and guides do not get better than this one. It was of the highest quality imaginable. Thank you, Sebastian!

Brilliant day - Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to visit Valparaiso and learn more about Chile. Our guide Julio was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. As well as seeing the Neruda houses, Julio took us to an amazing restaurant overlooking Valparaiso and showed us all the highlights of this beautiful city. We are very grateful to him for a brilliant day.

Worth every cent! - As a devotee of Neruda, I had to take this trip--and I'm thrilled that I did! Because of the ongoing protests (November 2019), my hotel location changed twice. Michael was incredibly responsive to my messages and confirmed each itinerary change. My guide, Sebastian, was prompt and incredibly knowledgeable. The entire day was an absolute treat! This tour is fantastic, even if you're not a fan of Neruda's.
