The experience
Isla de Maipo sits at the heart of the Maipo Valley, a short drive from Santiago. The day starts with hotel pickup and a three-hour bike ride through the town and vineyards. The road is flat with hardly any slope, so the pace stays easy even if you have not cycled in years. You stop at de Martino to walk its Santa Ines vineyard and hear about the vines and harvest methods, then roll through to Santa Ema's wine shop, where a sensory tasting room lets you challenge yourself identifying different aromas. The guide talks about the valley's history and Chilean winemaking as you pedal past tree-lined walks and glimpses of the Maipo River.
After the bike portion, lunch waits at a production villa next to the river: traditional local cuisine served under a large vine if the weather holds, or by the fireplace in winter. The villa sits on grounds with a pond, pool and avocado forest, so there is room to walk and settle before the final stop.
The day closes at Undurraga winery, one of the valley's historic estates. A winery guide walks you through the wine production process, then you taste three premium reserve wines (brands depend on availability) and keep a wine glass as a gift. The whole experience runs about ten hours door to door.
Is this one for you?The tour leaves from your Santiago hotel, so you skip arranging transport to the valley. The guide handles the drive, the bike route and the timing between stops, which matters if you're without a car or staying elsewhere in the city.
