Santiago Your Way: A Personalized 4-Hour Exploration

You’ll meet at the city’s central square, where Santiago’s past and present flow side by side. It’s a grounding place to begin, your host might share a few starting points, but from here, the day is yours to shape.

Café or Creative Corner in Barrio Lastarria

A soft start, shaped by your mood

This could be a moment to settle into Santiago’s creative rhythm. Maybe a tucked-away spot calls you that sparks conversation or curiosity. Your host listens and adjusts, letting the tone of the day unfold naturally.

Markets or Artisan Passages Nearby

Everyday details that draw you in

From books and crafts to textures and scents, this part of the city invites quiet discovery. You might follow your senses through a local passage or pause where life feels most real, no plan, just possibilities.

Your Kind of Pause, Hilltop or Street-Level

See the city from above or stay in step with its pace

A short walk could lead to a shaded viewpoint, where the buzz fades and Santiago stretches out below. Or perhaps you stay closer to the street, watching daily life from a park bench, in no hurry to move.

Santiago in Motion, Murals, Music, or Quiet Wander

Let the energy guide the final stretch.

As you make your way back toward the center, the city reveals itself in movement. You might pass murals mid-paint, hear street music echo between buildings, or simply enjoy how Santiago feels when you’re not trying to see everything.

My tour with Delia was a great balance of information, conversation, time for my questions—we covered a lot of ground but the time seemed relaxed. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and an ideal guide for someone who wants to know about London’s history as well as current life in the city.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour?

No. Our experiences are unscripted and designed around you. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, your host will plan a personalized journey that feels natural, immersive, and unique.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

Can I request specific places to visit?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll complete a short questionnaire about your interests and travel style. We’ll match you with the best host who will tailor the experience to you. You'll have the opportunity to chat with them before the experience and agree on a plan.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

How much walking is involved?

This depends on the experience, but your host can adjust the pace to suit your comfort level.
