Two hours driving north until Los Molles. In the morning, we will have an easy walk by a 1.4-miles circuit to enjoy the beauty of Puquén Biopark's natural gardens.

Nicolas picked us up at the hotel and the following 8 hours were outstanding . He is charming, extremely knowledgeable of the coastal ecology and very fluent in English, making the conversation very informative.The sites we visited were all breathtakingly beautiful. The reserva Puquen is otherworldly. Instead of a rigid prepared talk, he allowed the conversation to diverge from current ecological challenges in Chile, to the contemporary music scene, to politics, and the local economy. Unfortunately we didn’t have the time to join him in one of his other tours, ( he also provides mountain hiking tours), but it is certainly on our to do list on our next trip to Santiago. Could not recommend him more highly.

Our guides Nico and Daniel were amazing. Nico had fantastic knowledge of all the native plants we saw on our hike through this large beautiul reserve. Then they took us to a delicious lunch at Nico's parents beautiful seaside home. Then another long walk along an ocean walkway to see wildlife, beaches and pengiuns. They both speak very good English and were great helping us up and down some slippery spots on a rainy day. Highly recommend this tour if you love to walk and see special places outside of the city.

On September 5, 2023, I had the pleasure of taking part of the Pacific Coast Gardens day trip from Santiago with Nicolás. He is a fountain of knowledge about Chile, and pointed out important information along the way about the regions, their flora and fauna. Once we arrived in Cachagua, we walked along an incredible stone path on the Pacific coast. The day was cloudy, but it gave the view a magical and ethereal feeling. We were able to see different types of native plants and animals, including a glimpse of a Chungungo (small marine mammal). The best part was that we had the trail to ourselves. Even when we arrived at Playa la Cujas, we were the only people there, making me feel like we had just discovered a beautiful secret beach. The perfect spot for a quick picnic lunch! The trail culminated at Cachagua Beach, with the opportunity to see Humboldt penguins through the water at the Cachagua Island Natural Monument. We then drove along the coast to Zapallar and took a short hike to the Cerro La Cruz Nature Sanctuary. The flora and fauna there were simply spectacular. I marveled at the majestic flowers of the many Chaguales, the flocks of seabirds flying over the turbulent waters, and enjoyed the incredible views of the Pacific coast. We also had a great view of nearby Zapallar Beach. We returned to Santiago, while engaging in a friendly conversation about Chile and life in general. It really was an incredible experience. Nicolas is an excellent guide and I recommend this tour with him.
