Chile · MAIPO VALLEY WINERIES
Chile’s oldest wine region begins where Santiago ends, which makes it the easy half-day. These 15 are compared on how many houses you actually visit, whether lunch is included and what the tasting pours — Cabernet, mostly, and it should be.
Full-day Maipo Valley wine tour from Santiago with 4 vineyards, pisco tastings, guided tours, and hotel pickup for $135.

Half-day Marquis de Casa Concha wine tour from Santiago with Devil’s Locker and a 10-wine tasting, plus transfers and winery visits.
“The tour far exceeded my expectations. I booked this tour because it was the only one available on the date I needed. I assumed a " mass producer" winery visit would not be anything special. I was wrong. The brand new luxury coach was very comfortable, the guide on the bus was great and shared lots of info about Santiago ! The onsite guide was very knowledgeable, entertaining and was passionate about his job. The premium wines were very tasty.”

“This is an amazing tour! The guides were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They went above and beyond for us and always made sure we were ok. The overall experience at Concha y Toro was amazing and we highly recommend it. It’s beautiful and they have done a great job to showcase the work they do through an unforgettable sensory experience. Lots of fun and beautiful place. We ate at the restaurant and the food was delicious. Only downside was that the service was slow so make sure to account for that since the tour leaves on time.”

“Perfect timing, perfect Winery, and perfect Guide! to my mind half-day tour is even better, you will have full evening to enjoy the city or do something else. Don't forget your card, to buy some perfect wine in the local store, as per my observation prices are almost 20 from Duty Free...”
English-guided classic visit to Viña Cousiño Macul in Santiago, with vineyard/cellars tour and three-wine tasting.
“An old vineyard, with history, and very beautiful for visiting. We bought only the tasting of 3 wines, which was made standing while we were doing the visit. Maybe the visit with 6 cups is more pleasant, sitting down and actually being able to appreciate the good quality of the wines.Auto-translated”
Premium Concha y Toro tour from Santiago with extra Marques de Casa tastings, cheese, cellar highlights and garden views.
“Don't bother. It was a major disappointment. Although the tasting was not bad, we were never told what to expect because the driver (no guide) only some Spanish. If we did not have someone on the tour from Argentina helping us, we would have been out of luck. So sorry we did this”
Concha y Toro wine tour in Santiago: 4 tastings, grape gardens, Casillero del Diablo cellars, and an engraved glass.
“Skip the voucher. It was way more trouble than it was worth. No one at the winery could figure out how to use the voucher and we almost missed the tour. Had to wait in line anyway after being directed several different locations to try and redeem. Cheaper at the gate too!!!”
Santiago half-day: Bahá'i Temple and Cousiño Macul winery with round-trip transfer, bilingual guide, tastings, and a glass gift.
“I booked this tour to the B'hai temple & winery as it was the only tour of the temple I could find. It included transportation from a location very close to the hotel I was staying at. We boarded the Turistik bus at 1:15 & after picking up others we arrived at the temple parking lot at 2:45. So we rode on the bus for 1 hour & 30 minutes. Ridiculous! We were given just 30 minutes to walk up to the visitors center, receive a short briefing from a volunteer & then walk up many, many stairs to reach the temple. If you have issues with climbing stairs or…”

Half-day Maipo Valley tour from Santiago with Concha y Toro and Undurraga, panoramic views, and wine tastings at both vineyards.
“The tour in the vineyard was nice but short. The tour includes only one vineyard so the name should be changed. The driver did not speak any English, did not know how to tell us how much time we have left to browse in the store and what's the next stage. Lunch or back to the hotel ?! Its too expensive for such a short trip.”
