Santiago: Valparaiso, Viña del Mar & Casablanca Wine Tour
Who This Tour Suits
The default Valparaíso wine day: hotel pickup in Santiago, Viña del Mar’s Flower Clock and moai, a guided walk through Cerro Concepción and Cerro Alegre with a ride on the El Peral funicular, free time for lunch, and a tasting at a Casablanca Valley vineyard. Best Trip Chile runs it in about ten hours, and it is rated 4.8 from 1,330 reviews.
It suits a first visit to central Chile: anyone who wants to see Valparaíso properly and taste the valley’s cool-climate wines without renting a car or arranging buses. It is not a wine-lover’s day. The tasting stop is about 45 minutes at one vineyard, and depending on the winery’s schedule it can fall in the morning or the afternoon. If you want three or four estates, book the four-winery day instead.
Practical points: the pickup time and your guide’s name arrive by WhatsApp or email after 8 pm the evening before. Guides speak English, Spanish and Portuguese, and a shared group may be guided in more than one language. The funicular ticket and the tasting are included; lunch and tips are not. If you are moving on to the coast, ask for the drop-off at Valparaíso port, and say how many bags you have, or the van cannot take them. Airport pickup costs extra and depends on availability. The tour is not wheelchair accessible.
The price is from $65 a person in current promotion (usually $70) (checked October 2026), with free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
