Highlights

Ecotours Chile Private Tours has developed this superb experience for you, visiting Colchagua Valley from Santiago on private services visiting Los Maquis winery, and having a superb lunch with chef Pilar Rodriguez. The Colchagua Valley is one of the world’s premier wine tourist destinations. Known for its beautiful vineyard-covered hills, hundred-year-old vines, enchanting colonial estate houses, and modern high-tech wineries, sets up a perfect atmosphere to enjoy a day trip from Santiago city. Located in the southern half of the Rapel Valley, the Colchagua Valley has evolved over the last twenty years from being a calm stretch of farmland to becoming one of the largest and most active wine-producing regions in the country. The relatively low altitude of the coastal hills allows the Pacific breeze to mingle with the Andean winds, which cools the valley and prolongs the maturation period of the region.

About Santiago

Santiago, Chile's capital, sits in a broad valley beneath the snowy Andes, a city of hilltop parks, bohemian neighbourhoods and vineyards close by.

The Plaza de Armas, with its cathedral and grand old post office, is the historic heart, and the neoclassical La Moneda Palace stands a few blocks away. The Museum of Pre-Columbian Art holds treasures from across the Americas, and the Central Market serves seafood beneath a soaring iron roof.

Top-ranked sights in Santiago: Viña del Mar, Plaza de Armas, La Moneda Palace (Palacio de la Moneda).
