Thomas is a very energetic young French national who has lived in Chile for many years and knows the country extremely well.
He is very easy to deal with on line and he answered very rapidly to my e-mails. He suggested an itinerary based on our tastes. He arrived promptly in front of our hotel on the day of the tour. We chose to do a circle drive on a small mountain road starting in the Casablanca valley. We passed gauchos on horseback, small farms, llamas and even stopped for a giant spider crossing the road. We stopped for lunch at a lovely small country restaurant and many times for photos of the countryside. We visited an ecological vineyard where vines are planted in symbiosis with some plants that are known to deter insects or diseases. This winery also had a quite large herd of alpacas. We then drove towards Valparaiso and circled the hills for more photo opportunities and proceeded to Vino del Mar, admired the flower clock , the Miami-like high rises, the sea lions on their rocks and managed to hike up the dunes of Concon. All together, a good day of sightseeing! I would highly recommend Thomas!
