“The Jaguar XF, the bilingual driver and an itinerary built exactly to our taste. We visited three vineyards, Valparaíso and the Neruda House without lifting a finger. We'll be back.”
“I asked for a gastronomy itinerary and Tourevo made it happen: La Vega market, a chef class, a pairing in Colchagua. For a foodie, it's the best tour I've ever done.”
“We did the Maipo Valley with the Cayenne and it was another level. The guide knew every viewpoint and every winery. Truly professional, door to door.”
Cousiño Macul, in the Peñalolén district, is the closest major winery to Santiago — about 20 minutes from hotels in Las Condes or Providencia. The closest full wine valley is Maipo Alto (Pirque and Buin), 30–45 minutes away, home to Concha y Toro and Santa Rita. Tourevo runs private half-day tours to all of them with hotel pickup.
Yes. The Maipo Valley half-day wine tour (5 hours, USD 168 per person) visits two icon wineries with a sommelier-led tasting and returns you to your hotel by mid-afternoon. The Concha y Toro tour & tasting (5 hours, USD 168) is the other classic half-day option. Both depart from any hotel in the Santiago metro area.
It depends on your palate and time: Maipo Valley (30–45 min) is best for classic Cabernet Sauvignon and time-pressed travelers; Casablanca Valley (70 min) is best for cool-climate whites and pairs well with a Valparaíso visit; Colchagua Valley (2h30) is the official Wine Route of Chile and best for Carmenère lovers with a full day available.
Tourevo wine tours are strictly private: only your group, your bilingual chauffeur-guide and your vehicle. No shared buses, no strangers, no commercial stops. Tastings are pre-booked directly with each winery and a pairing lunch reservation is included on full-day tours.
From USD 168 per person (Maipo Valley half-day, from 2 travelers) to USD 265 per person (Casablanca + Colchagua Premium full-day with 5-course pairing lunch). Prices include hotel pickup and return, bilingual chauffeur-guide and tasting coordination. Winery entrance fees are billed at the venue.
Most visitors to Santiago have only half a day for wine — and that is genuinely enough. Because the closest wineries sit just 20–45 minutes from the city, a private morning or afternoon is all you need to walk a historic estate, descend into a cellar and taste icon wines with a sommelier, and still be back for dinner. Here is how to get the most out of a wine tour near Santiago, whatever your schedule.
The single biggest decision is valley vs. time. If your window is tight, stay in Maipo (Concha y Toro, Santa Rita, Cousiño Macul) — 30–45 minutes each way, two wineries and a tasting in five hours. If you have a full day and prefer fresh whites, head to Casablanca (70 minutes) and pair it with Valparaíso on the way back. Everything below applies to either choice.

Wine tours near Santiago run all year. The most atmospheric window is the harvest (vendimia) in March–April, when the vineyards are alive and some estates offer grape picking. Spring (October–November) brings green vines and flowers; summer (December–February) is warm and sunny; winter (June–August) is quiet and cellar-focused — often the best light for photos.

We pick you up at any hotel or apartment in metropolitan Santiago — Las Condes, El Golf, Vitacura, Providencia, Lastarria, Bellavista or Barrio Italia — and at Santiago Airport (SCL) if you are connecting. Door-to-door means no taxis, no metro and no meeting points: your chauffeur-guide is waiting in the lobby at the time you choose.

Quality beats quantity. A half day comfortably covers one or two wineries with an unhurried tasting; a full day fits two to three plus a pairing lunch among the vines. Trying to squeeze in more means rushing the part you came for — the wine. We design the pace around you, not a fixed circuit.

A wine tour near Santiago combines beautifully: Casablanca + Valparaíso (the valley is on the road to the coast), Maipo morning + Cajón del Maipo mountains in the afternoon, or Cousiño Macul + a Santiago city tour since the winery is inside the city. Tell us what else you want to see and we build one seamless private day.
Do you need to book in advance? Yes — winery tastings are reserved directly with each estate, and weekends plus the March–April harvest fill quickly. We recommend confirming your wine tour near Santiago at least one to two weeks ahead, though we often arrange last-minute private visits when slots allow. Start with a free, no-obligation quote and we will lock in the wineries and the time that suit you.

Each valley around Santiago has a signature grape, shaped by how close it sits to the Andes or the Pacific. Knowing them makes it far easier to choose where to go — and to taste with intent rather than just sipping along. Here is what the wineries near Santiago pour best, and why.

Chile's flagship red and the king of the Maipo Valley. The gravelly soils of Alto Maipo, 40 minutes from Santiago, give powerful, age-worthy Cabernets — think Concha y Toro's Don Melchor and Santa Rita's Casa Real, both poured on our Maipo tours.

Chile's signature grape — a lost Bordeaux variety rediscovered here in 1994. Plummy, spicy and unmistakable, it thrives in warm Maipo and Colchagua sites. If you taste one wine you can't get the same way at home, make it a Chilean Carmenère.

The cool, fog-cooled Casablanca Valley (70 minutes, on the road to Valparaíso) is Chile's home of crisp, citrus-driven Sauvignon Blanc and elegant Chardonnay — the perfect counterpoint to Maipo's big reds, and ideal on a warm afternoon.

Closest to the coast, Casablanca and San Antonio also produce silky Pinot Noir and a peppery, cool-climate Syrah — elegant, food-friendly reds that surprise travelers expecting only Cabernet. A great reason to pair a valley visit with a vineyard lunch.
