Your Concierge in Santiago and Valparaiso No more buses. No more name tags. No more waiting for the others to finish in the gift shop you never wanted to go in anyway. No more time limits when you’re trying to soak in the environment. No more tour itineraries – YOU are the boss, whether you are 2 or 20. Chip Travel operates custom, private tours in the Central Valley of Chile. For your time in and around Santiago, we will be your local concierge showing you the best there is to offer in the cosmopolitan capital of Santiago, the fruits of Chile’s famous wine valleys, the enchantment of Valparaiso, the beauty of Viña del Mar’s white sand beach and much more. The agenda and time table are entirely up to you, and last minute adjustments are not only welcome but recommended as you fall in love with different aspects of Chile’s culture, history and natural environment. We can do separate daily trips or be your guide throughout your stay in Santiago, for example helping organize your free time such as dinners in the places locals eat, not just those in the guide books or where your hotel concierge’s cousin works. Please contact us with your travel plans to Chile and what you’d like to experience during your time around Santiago and we can work on giving you the best experience with all that Chile has to offer. If you just have a flight and no idea where to start once you are here, we can suggest some plans according to your tastes. We specialize in cruise pick-ups and drop-offs in Valparaiso. click below on "read more" for testimonials and some ideas! |

Human Rights Tour
The 17-year military dictatorship (1973-1990) of General Augusto Pinochet left Chile with a dramatic human rights legacy. The tour provides a profound look into Chile's past and present, as well as forces shaping the future. Both the full and half day walking tour take you to the main sites in and around Santiago affected by the military government. This tour stands out because it gives you the opportunity to see the places where history has happened as well as understand two contradictory opinions on what the Pinochet regime has done to Chile.
 
VILLA GRIMALDI. LA MONEDA. CEMENTERIO GENERAL. Half day walking tour 35,000 CLP or $70 US dollars Full day tour (including Villa Grimaldi) 70,000 CLP or $140 US dollars with a minimum of 2 people Includes stops at La Moneda Presidential Palace (center stage of the September 11, 1973 coup); the Chilean Supreme Court; Londres 38, a former Police interrogation center; The General Cemetery, the resting place for many of those involved in both the coup and the dictatorship which followed. |
