Wonderful walk - An excellent tour throughout the Yungay neighborhood. Beautiful everything and most important was the explanation of our Guide Rodrigo. He spent more than two hours explaining all the history and culture of the neighborhood.

Excellent Guide on Yungay Tour that was well worth my time - This tour was great! My guide was named Rodrigo and he was very good at storytelling so time flew. He implemented things like "remember this" and then would loop back to it so the high quality effects of the storytelling hit even better. I have had great experiences with UrbanTours, with Claudio for the Santiago tour for example. Highly recommend this tour, you save a lot of money since there isn't a participation fee and the tour group usually are small since it runs everyday. Most of the times when I do free tours, usually 4-5 people including me. I got the chance to ask a lot of questions and Rodrigo answered all of them and was very patient too. I had actually gone on a Yungay tour the same morning with the Municipality of Santiago and the guide did not cover the art in the neighborhood but Rodrigo did.

A memorable tour of Santiago! - The best way to get to know Santiago! Our Guide was Rodrigo, who was excellent and friendly, and explains about various historical, architectural and socio-cultural aspects of the area in a fun, interesting and humorous way! It's a class! And one of those memorable lessons! We were enchanted by the neighborhood and, consequently, by the cultural wealth of Santiago. I recommend it to everyone who wants to explore the city in a broader and more interesting way.

Excellent Guides through UrbanTours - I had Rodrigo for my tour, he was amazing! I learned so much and he answered all of my questions. He was very great with storytelling just like another guide I had who also runs tours for Yungay too (Claudio). This tour was so worth my time. I did another tour in the morning through the municipality of Santiago which is in Spanish but the murals and art were not covered. This tour through Urbantours filled in the gap for me. UrbanTours has always been good if you want an English speaking person for your tour. I did one through Providencia and the guide was great too! Can't go wrong with it.

Yungay greatness and decay. - Very good to know more about the city of Santiago in a slightly less typical destination. Rodrigo very friendly and performed very well in English and Spanish, although I would have preferred that the Tour was not bilingual. The neighborhood has a conjunction of grandeur and decadence.
