What people love about Wine tasting Tours in South America
- Chile - San Pedro de Atacama - 9 days
Micaela was great and was able to sort out the hiccups that occurred with the local operators. Everything was well organised and the itinerary was great. My only complaint is that the transfers to and from Santiago Airport were not good, but that was down to transvip being an awful, disorganised company and so I ended up organising these transfers myself.
