Experience the unique world of Chilean wine in the heart of Santiago with this half-day tour to Cousiño Macul Vineyard, located in the traditional Maipo Valley. The tour provides access to one of Chile’s most iconic wineries and offers an immersive journey into the history and production of wine with guidance from local experts.
The visit begins among gardens and colonial architecture, where you will explore the vineyards and learn about key production stages, from hand-harvesting to barrel aging. Every corner of the vineyard reflects the dedication of generations of winemakers committed to Chilean wine excellence.
One of the highlights is the visit to the underground cellar, built in 1870.
