Cajon del maipo Natural Landmarks Sightseeing Tours 2022/2023

“Our tour guide was Vanessa Villablanca. She picked us up at the hotel at 8 am. While we didn't book a private tour, it ended up just being our family of 4. She had a good vehicle that could handle the drive through the Cajon Del Maipo & Embalse El Yeso. Vanessa had great command of the points along the trip. She was so accommodating when we wanted to stop & get pics which we really appreciated. We went on a Saturday and unfortunately it was a long weekend for people of Santiago. As such it was PACKED. We left at 8 am and the drive was perfect up to about a 1/4 mile from Embalse El Yeso. TONS of car packed a very narrow dirt road making it virtually impassable. Luckily Vanessa had parked at the bottom of the entrance area, allowing us to avoid what would have been HOURS trying to get back down the hill. You do not want to do this drive yourself nor with a car that is not an SUV. Hire a driver. We had a little lunch which was very nice. Nothing like enjoying the beauty of the area. Vanessa set up a table and chairs. She is very personable and passionate for nature.”

“Amazing views. Interesting guide by Emmanuel. We loved the final stop st the reservoir with a break for a walk and picnic. It would be great if the tour involved some more hiking but you probably need to choose a different tour profile if you want to hike. All in all, highly recommended.”

“A group of 12 friends and I wanted to experience a day in Cajon del Maipo and the local tour experts made this day happen! It was completely amazing and well organized. was wonderful and helped us plan a trip that my friends will remember for a long time. We loved having Patricio as our guide. He was very professional and informative. He took the time to talk with each group member, answer their questions and teach us all about the area.”
