Spend 150 minutes outside San Pedro with astronomy guides such as Felipe, Claudio, and Salvador. Learn Western and Andean sky traditions, view planets and galaxies through large telescopes, take a starry portrait, and warm up with coffee, tea, or red wine.

“Claudio was passionate about astronomy and made the lecture fun and interactive. His knowledge of the various stars, galaxies, and constellations we observed was impressive. The photos on the platform were fun. Having wine, snacks, and other drinks served after the astronomy lecture and observation created the opportunity to socialize, which was an added bonus.”

“Very poor communication. Our van did not respond to use in the morning and did not show up until noon. It appears that they picked up others heading to the cruise port early in the morning and then picked us up after then returned from the trip. That is fine overall, but the lack of communication with whatsapp was frustrating. They only responded when I threatened to cancel completely. The driver was a nice guy, just communicate with us next time. Just say, "hey, it will be noon, but we are coming" and it would be all ok.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 37 reviews · 5 to 7 hours (approx.) · from $220

Leave Santiago at 8:30 am for private transport to two Casablanca Valley wineries. Taste four wines at Bodegas RE, then enjoy a scheduled Casas del Bosque tasting. Lunch at Tanino is optional and not included, so plan your timing and budget carefully.

“Il costo dell'esperienza è circa 80dollari di cui circa 30 riguardano la sola degustazione in una cantina e visita più degustazione nella seconda azienda. Entrambe le cantine producono vini di qualità ma... Mi sembra assurdo che non venga fatta la visita nella prima azienda (costerebbe altri 5 dollari) e i tempi sono davvero stretti. Nella proposta si parla del pranzo in azienda, ma non viene lasciato il tempo per farlo! Alle 3pm si è di nuovo a Santiago con lo stomaco vuoto! Non è ben organizzata la visita, il costo è enorme! 50dollari di trasporto per percorrere 60km da Santiago alla valle di Casablanca sono eccessivi! Spendendo 15dollari in più…”
