Chile's Valle Central, a verdant valley tucked between the Andes and the coastal mountain ranges, has a mild climate and moist soil perfect for grape growing. Made up of four distinct wine regions, Maipo, Rapel, Curico and Maule, the area is criss-crossed by well-traveled wine roads. At the northern end of the valley is Maipo, the oldest of Chile's wine regions, famous for its Cabernet Sauvignon. At the opposite end is Maule, which still grows Pais, the first grape brought to South America.

We took this tour last year. The guide doesn’t speak English at all, and keep repeating the same information over and over. They also don’t let you move and ask you to be next to them all the time. Amazing place but awful guide

This tour is unique because of it's history, Pablo Neruda's residence has been transformed into a museum that is unmissable for any fan of the Chilean poet. Interesting collections of figureheads, replica of sailboats, boats inside bottles, sea shells and whales teeth, among others, evoke at all time the sea, the ships and thesailors’ life. "Water rose to your waist, You are made of wellsprings And lakes shone on your forehead. From your sources of density you drew Water like vital tears And hauled the riverbeds to the sand Across the planetary night, Crossing rough, dilated stone, Breaking down on the way All the salt of geology, Cutting through forests of compact walls Dislodging the muscles of quartz. Pablo Neruda"
Inclusions: Entrance Ticket to Pablo Neruda’s Museum, Air-conditioned vehicle

Picked our bikes and off we go. The very handsome Franco led us on our merry way through the streets of old Santiago explaining all he could, and made a few jokes along the way. His English was very clear so we didn’t miss a thing. He was so good we went back the next day by foot to most parts, staying longer and enjoyed a lovely lunch at the Fish Market. Thanks Franco for a great tour 10 out of 10 ????????
