We decided to do the tour in English, but they offer it in spanish and portugese as well. There was no one else on our English tour, so it became a private tour! The guide, Felipe, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of our questions, and made us feel very welcomed. We did the "premium" tour, which is a basic one, but there are many options and levels you can choose from. We were able to try three different varieties, and ultimately bought some bottles at a discounted rate. The food in the little restaurant was very good. We just did a tapas style snack with a cheese plate, the melted cheese, and a bottle of wine. The staff in the bar area was very friendly as well. We did not have a car, so we used public transport to get back to the metro station. IT was easy, but if you are unfamiliar with the area, it could be a bit of a daunting task. Overall, I would happily do this experience again if I find myself in the Santiago area.

The classic or generic tour includes 3 wine tasting, one white and 2 red wines. They offer the tour in English and spanish, I didn't see any other option( I wasn't looking for it either lol) Our guide was great, place has a lot of history, a cool story within the basement which won't tell you about because would be a spoiler alert! Free WiFi available. Very touristic driven. There is a nice restaurant where you can do more wine tasting if you like. ! Totally worth it.

We stopped by Mercado Central on a Monday afternoon and it wasn't a fun experience. We were going…read moreto go to Donde Augusto inside for lunch. The moment we stepped inside every single restaurant was AGGRESSIVE and tried to harass us into dining at their establishment. You have to be VERY firm in saying no because they're practically trying to drag you into their restaurants. After we found Donde Augusto and asked one of their staff for seating, someone from another restaurant still tried to poach us from their staff and started arguing with our server over us, it was WILD. I can't say I was a fan overall. It's not super big and smells very strongly of fish. There was a cute little stand that had very reasonably priced souvenirs inside but they only took pesos so bring cash.

Maybe I went at a bad time, but the market was pretty empty and half dead. The entire building…read moresmells like dead fish. The fish stalls seemed to be operating fully, but there were very few other vendors of flowers, fruits, or crafts. It was just underwhelming. Be prepared to have many people try and scoop you into their restaurant or shop while you walk around, much like a salesman at a car dealership.

For all of you who love deliciously-hoppy, incredibly-crisp, and extremely refreshing beers this is…read morethe place for you. Less than a year old, this beer store has already made a name for itself among the beer elitists in Chile. Started by fellow gringos, Beervana on Los Leones, has an incredible selection of both international and national beers. In fact, they have one fridge of US-beers, one of European beers (from the UK, Belgium and Germany) and one of Chilean microbrews. My favorites include their brews imported from some of California's best breweries such as Ballast Point, Green Flash, Coronado, Anderson Valley and Devil's Canyon. The owners, Ben and Perry, have the patience of a saint and take the time to explain (even to the most novice of beer drinkers) what is what and how you can distinguish between the brews. Definitely worth the time to come by and check out the beer options for your next asado. Also, if you fear these artesian beers might break the bank, keep an eye out as they always seem to have promotions on something (last week it was on Groupon but they also post it on FB).

We also ordered drinks (wine pairing by recommendation) with dinner (salmon with orange glaze) and dessert (chocolate crème brûlée) after the tasting and the total per person came out to around $70 USD.

This is a great alternative to going to one of the vineyards for wine tasting. We originally were…read moretrying to go to Concha y Toro for a tour, but we had a very tight schedule due to work, so I started looking for an option inside the city and found this place, and I'm glad I did. They have set times for group wine tasting in a big auditorium where you not only do the wine tasting, but also get to watch some videos from experts talking about the wines you are trying. However, the fixed times were not good for us, so they also have the option of choosing to do the tasting in the wine store at anytime during the day. They have 3 different tasting available depending on which region you are interested in. We chose the Colchagua region which is the one with the highest rated wine, and it was wonderful. The sommelier that took care of us (Lorena) was very knowledgeable and gave us a great amount of information about the wines, regions and history on Chilean vineyards. We also ordered a couple of charcuterie boards to accompany our tasting, and the quality of the meats and cheeses was great. Overall, I highly recommend this place. You can also stay for lunch or dinner if you have the time after your wine tasting. They have a good food selection, and they have indoor and outdoor seating. Cheers!

This local mini market is great. Not only is it located right underneath my apartment on Miraflores…read morebut it has everything you might have forgotten on your trip to the super market. I go to Peta Zeta every time I need eggs, bread, afternoon chocolate milk, anything really. One of the things I really love about Peta Zeta is that they are open super late until about 2 to 3am. You can run over and get last minute beer, wine, Pisco, really any liquor you may need. Their prices are really good too. I hate when mini markets overcharge just because its late. Peta Zeta never does this and they are always super super sweet. During the wee hours of the morning just make sure you have cash on you as they will not accept credit cards at this time. One of their yummy specialties are their bread with salami and cheese, my favorite afternoon snack!

Although this mini-market sells a variety of different products such as pre-made salads and…read moresandwiches to even detergents and lighters, what I come here most for is alcohol. Not like I drink a lot, but whenever I am at my friends house (she lives right below) it is way easier to pick up more beer from the guys at Peta-Z than go anywhere else. Because of this, we have become friends with these guys - they are always super friendly and helpful. We broke the ice one night when my friend and I were fighting over who would buy and she ended up telling them they couldn't accept my money because it was counterfeit. Although they laughed it off (although I think they kind of believed her) and ended up not accepting my money. Since then, we have come down and they always joke about it. Great place for late night "shopping" as well as a place to pick up a quick bite to eat during lunch. Tip: Although they do accept credit cards, if it's night time bring cash, because they don't accept them after a certain hour.

Sick of the same old beer selection as always? Why not mix it up a bit with your own brew!…read more Minicerveceria helps you with everything you need to start brewing at home. They provide you with a starter ingredient kit of malt syrup, hops and ale yeast. They also have all the other supplies to get you going. The owners are true beerheads (no pun intended). They dedicate themselves to providing the true art of making beer - simple, without weird additives and economic (although something like this will cost you around 100 CLP). Once you have become a bit more advanced, or have decided to become a very dedicated home brewer, you can take any of their advanced workshops and invest in more quality products for your beer making. If you are not quite interested in making it yourself but you would like to try, they offer their services for events as well. I would recommend calling first to have them answer any of your questions and then head on over to get set up! They also have a large parking lot (where sometimes they will start a bbq and have some beer to try) so you can pick up all the supplies without any hassle.

Food is amazing and totally worth it. I had the ossobuco and it was absolutely fantastic, falling off the bone, melting in your mouth delicious! Their wines are also delicious. We did the historical tour plus tasting, and they served 4 of their signature wines. All super smooth, delicious. They sell most of their production internally to Chile. Their wine is fantastic: dry but smooth. I highly recommend the tour as well, you get to learn about the property, all the owners and how it got to what it is today.
