Santiago’s Favorite Neighborhood: Street Art, History and Local Spots.
Hello! I'm Sergio. I've been working as a guide for 5 years, but I still feel that every tour is like the first. I believe that a walking tour is not only about dates or names of buildings and statues, but about discovering what each of these points tell us about the history and culture of a city, so this is exactly what I like to study and share. My tours are a mix of knowledge, facts and anecdotes so that you can learn and have fun at the same time.
