Wine Valleys of Chile

Chile’s wine region extends along the length of the country and is known for producing some of the finest wines in the world. Casablanca Valley, tucked between the capital city of Santiago and the Pacific Coast, is home to some of the country’s leading wineries. The cool morning mists and low average temperatures make the valley conducive to growing grape varieties used to produce excellent white wines such as Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Located close to Santiago, Maipo Valley has hot and dry summers and cold, wet winters that make it ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon varietals. There is also the Colchagua Valley, surrounded by the Andes and Coastal Mountain Ranges. The area is dotted with diverse vineyards and topnotch wineries specializing in Cabernet, Carmenere, Syrah, and Malbec. Nearby, you will find Millahue where the combination of fertile volcanic soil and an arid Mediterranean climate nurture a variety of grapes. In the distinctive wine-producing regions, you could visit the wineries to learn more about viniculture, sample house wines and enjoy leisurely strolls around the lush vineyards.

What Our Guests Say

We had a magical 2 weeks in Argentina and Chile Enchanting Travels. We highly recommend them and will use them again. Thank you!

Vicky Deacon

USA

This trip was number one on my bucket list and Enchanting Travel helped me make it everything I could have dreamed of. They took care of all the details allowing me to sit back and enjoy the beauty of Patagonia. So glad I finished the trip with a few days in Santiago and a little wine tasting.

Karen March

USA

This is our second international trip with Enchanting Travels. The first was in 2023 with our grown children to Japan. The second was February 2025 to Patagonia for just my husband and myself. For years I planned my families trips and don’t regret that, but there is a clear difference in the experiences when using travel professionals. Traveling to Japan soon after the country reopened from COVID, I did not know if the typical travel books or videos would have updated information on hotels and restaurants and how they recovered from the pandemic. I put full trust in Enchanting Travels and they far exceeded expectations. Best trip ever, my children agree. Our patagonia trip was crafted with similar expertise. Communication was clear and fast at every step. There was never a glitch with transportation, tours, or hotels. Truly, we were spoiled every step of the way. Now we just need to decide on our next adventure, but will be sure to contact Enchanting Travels when we do!!

Kristin Englund

USA

Enchanting folks were delightful to work with and very responsive to our needs and expectations, which can often be high. Their choices of tour itinerary, hotels, and meals included were in general excellent. We would certainly consider Enchanting in our future travels.

William Schiemann

Enchanting Travels delivers. My husband and I booked with them for a trip to Patagonia for our honeymoon and we didn’t even have to think about anything the entire trip. The hotels, food, transportation, and day excursions were beyond amazing. We had a flight that needed to be changed coming back to the US and they also took care of this for us. There is no doubt you get what you’re paying for. Derek and Camilla were beyond amazing in making this trip happen. Thank you so much for a trip we will always remember.

Krystal Pittman

Enchanting Travels organized another great trip for us. A couple years ago, they planned our Mexico/Guatemala trip, which was fantastic. Now, we just came back from 2 weeks in Chile (Santiago, Maule, Patagonia/Torres del Paine & Easter Island/Rapa Nui). It was unforgettable. My wife has all kinds of dietary restrictions and allergies and they made sure we had plenty of options. Also, my wife is into birding/wildlife and I’m into history/architecture/culture and Enchanting Travels built a trip that totally satisfied both of us. We told them what we were into and some things we wanted to see/do over a zoom call and they took it from there and proposed a couple prospective itineraries and we chose one. It was that easy. We’re thinking about going to Greece next year and will definitely work with Enchanting Travels again. Kenny and Katie did a great job for us. Many thanks, guys!
