Kylie guided my husband and me around three wineries in the Aconcagua Valley last week (Jan 2020). The tour was excellent. Kylie is knowledgeable, friendly, and definitely knows her wines.... read more Each winery visited was very different, ranging in size from boutique producer to one of the larger premier brands with the tastings showcasing a wide range of styles of Chilean wine. Our tour also included lunch at the Flaherty winery where the food offered was absolutely divine. Only warning – most of the wines are so good you’ll drink all of every glass you’re offered…. A very enjoyable day out!

  We had a wonderful day visiting 3 wineries in the Casablanca valley with Kylie. It was such a relaxed experience - not having to think about anything because Kylie took... read more care of it all (driving, bookings, choosing the wineries, selecting lunch etc.) We felt perfectly pampered! The three wineries - Veramonte, Casas del Bosque, and Viñamar - perfectly complemented each other. And of course Kylie herself is a treasure! Charming, entertaining and not getting tired of our constant questions about the wines, wineries, and Chile in general. She also gave us recommendations unrelated to the tour that were very welcome. So if you are looking to book a private tour of Chile’s wine country look no further. Just book Kylie!

  Kylie is a well connected and experienced tour guide in Chile. Her Casablanca tour hits all the high points, including Emiliana, House, Casa Botha, and Casas del Bosque. ... read more An official sommelier, Kylie is well versed in the gastronomic arts and is the perfect guide for exploring one of Chile's most interesting wine valleys. Other tours may be more well established but they can't compete with Kylie's personal touch!

  we ate we drank we got merry. And all off the usual beaten track of Chilean enoturismo. We asked Kylie to put together a package that would be interesting... read more and different and she delivered in spades. The tour was a family Christmas treat so started from our flat in Las Condes and took in William Fevre in Pirque (for an early thirst quencher) where we met the enologist who discussed the different terroirs up the Cajon de Maipu and around Pirque, and how they affect the wines. We had a mooch round the wine making facilities and then got to the important bit - a tasting under the trees (yummy) and some retail therapy in the bodega shop. We tried a chardonnay, a rose and the chacai (¿cachai?) a rather excellent asemblaje. Unfortunately we cleaned the shop out of it and would have bought more if we could.

Next stop was Chateau Los Boldos - not usually open to Joe Public but that doesn't stop Kylie! Here we met the viticulturist - the guy in charge of actually growing grapes good enough to make the wine. It was here that we learned how much a team effort the whole vitification is (and how the enologists steal all the glory!). We asked loads of questions, almost overstayed our welcome and of course did some tasting. Again excellent wines, no shop a few hints as to where you can buy them in Santiago. next stop was Anakena and lunch. We were late but we still got the tour description of the process tour of the gardens and shown how the leaves of the different vines differ. The to the restaurant which was outstanding. Delicious hors d'oeuvres awaited us while the chef put the finishing touches to lunch. Well he had some more wine with lunch and of course bought yet more (cases) in the shop. After lunch it was time for some photos and then the ride home.

Kylie provided a highly personalised service with a great selection of different vineyards and delicious at very reasonable prices. If you hadn't guessed I'd recommend going on one of her trips (unless you don't like wine or food). I'll be going on another soon I am sure.

  I had a great experience with Kylie, the owner of Chile Wine Trails. She's very knowledgeable and fun at the same time. She affords her groups personal attention and personality.... read more We visited Casas del Bosque, Emiliana, House and Casa Botha. They were all excellent and she clearly had all of the details worked out so all we had to do was show up and enjoy! I highly recommend taking a tour with Kylie!

  I had organised a group of people from a cruise stop in San Antonio on 7th March.

Kylie had been great with communicating before hand and dealing with my... read more requests promptly.

It proved to be a great day out. Two wineries in good locations.

The second included a barbecue and the wine flowed. My group gelled together. Kylie was on hand and proved to be personable and passionate about the wines and area.

I should also mention the guides at both venues, knowledgeable and informative.

The transport used was very good, great driver and everybody commented on the standard of the vehicle used. Not always the case on some of our trips.

This is great option for folks interested in wine.

Great job Kylie
