Patrick is such a knowledgeable friendly guide. And Michael is a very skillful driver. They are a good team. They took us to the Pisco’s factory, and other sites. We had a good day with them.

Wonderful Day in Elqui Valley

LeeD_D, Mar 2024

I had a wonderful day on this shore excursion. It began with our ship arriving one hour late and I was very thankful that Camilla (guide) and Claudio (driver) were waiting for me. It was about an hour drive to the first stop at the Puciaro Dam on the River Elqui that runs throughout the Elgui Valley. I may appreciate this more than most, as I'm a Civil Engr. We visited several small, picturesque village with beautiful squares and sculptures. I learned about Gabriella Mistral from this area, who earned the Nobel Prize for literature in 1945. Lunch was in a quaint restaurant featuring delicious food slow cooked in pots purely by solar energy. We also stopped and sampled Pisco alcohol at both new and old (1921) distilleries. I bought a bottle at each. Camilla was amazing and very attentive to my may questions. We stopped several times for scenic pictures of the valley which is full of vineyards. She showed me many interesting things and we all seemed to have an enjoyable time. It was a full day, and I am so thankful that it wasn't canceled since others had selected other tours. I'm on a 32-day cruise and thus excursion was one of the best.

The tour was great but the driver was most knowledgeable and he had translator then to talk with us in English so fluency of interpreter was difficult.
