Experience Highlights

**Certified by and operating under safety standards of the Chilean Ministry of Tourism (Sernatur)** At a 30 min drive from Santiago, enter a complete different world. Go off the beaten track on a horseback-riding tour through the mountains of the Santiago area. With an expert English speaking guide, you’ll follow local ‘arrieros’ (cowboys) across mountains and ridges with amazing views of the Santiago valley! You will learn about Chile's horsemanship traditions, spot different native trees, sorts of vegetation, mountain micro-climates, and all of this while enjoy the breathtaking vistas on horseback. For sure some other furry friends like dogs will join us as well. Activity suitable for beginners and experts...these small but sturdy Criollo horses will put anyone at ease. We lend you some chaps & a helmet for a safe ride! After our ride, we enjoy a delicious gourmet picnic with wine, ham & cheeses with fresh bread and seasonal fruits, and showcasing local products.

    Our guide, Gustavo, led us around open trails and showed us how to ride in a slow paced and casual environment. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the day.

    Will, Mirta and Orlando were very friendly and professional guides. We all enjoyed this activity very much and it was a memorable and well organized outing. The ride was a good length followed by a lovely picnic to end and the ranch was located only a short distance from Santiago which made it even better. Thank you for a great experience.

    We had a wonderful private tour into the Andes mtns! Our guide, Will, picked us up promptly for the agreed upon pick up site. The company gave helpful tips in getting to the pickup site and things to do in that area. The horses were gentle and surefooted along the trail through the canyons. Will pointed out sights along the way and was very knowledgeable in culture, history and nature. We were even lucky enough to see eagles, condors, Chilean meadowlarks, quail, and the ranch dog even chased a rabbit across our path! I was interested in the tree-like cacti and Will went out of his way to make sure I saw them up close and even took pictures of us with them. When we got back to camp, Will's wife, Mirta, had prepared a charcuterie feast of fresh, local meats, cheeses, fruits, nuts and bread along with Chilean wine! This was a fabulous and memorable trip and highly recommend: do not miss this incredible opportunity!
