Hello! My name is Alex and I am an international tourism professional. I have been in the tourism sector for 21 years and 8 years in Chile. I have returned after doing tours in Cuba and visiting Panama. I am a traveler like you but I am also a guide in several destinations. I worked for 20 years in a German travel agency, PhD in 2009, MBA in International Tourism since 2022, speaker at courses, events and lecturer at universities and institutes on tourism, I never lose the passion for traveling and sharing. On this occasion I take you through the paths and stories of Valparaíso and Viña del Mar, wonderful cities on the central coast of Chile. I have previously lived in Weiden in der Oberpfalz, Munich, Caracas, Havana, Panama City, La Paz and Mexico City. I have been living in Valparaíso since 2016 and in Viña del Mar since 2023. With your contribution, you help me take my way of doing tours to other cities such as: Tokyo, Seoul, Mallorca, Montreal, Oslo, Stockholm, London, Sydney, Vancouver, California, Hamburg and New York, where new adventures await me. Thanks to the invitation from international clients, partners and operators to continue travelling, learning and sharing with you. If you see me somewhere else in the world, you can say hello to me because it's me :) With your contribution, you encourage me to continue travelling, connecting and sharing in different places around the world.
Alex is an amazing guide! It seems like he knows everything about Valparaiso- it's history, the artists, the people. He is also is very nice and has a really nice vibe as a person
Alex's knowledge of Valpariso was impressive, especially with respect to the street art. He talked about the history of Valpariso when we met on the waterfront. As we walked along the tour, he was constantly being greeted by local merchants along the way. Alex was friendly, approachable and well versed in many topics that arose during our conversation. The whole tour was relaxed and easy going, allowing us to stop for photos or to linger over a particular view. He took us thru local passages and paths we would not have otherwise found. Would absolutely recommend this wonderful tour of the hills of Valpariso with Alex
It was a wonderful tour. When we first arrived in this town, the surroundings made us feel uneasy. But after joining this tour, Alex helped us discover the beauty of this little town. He said his goal was to change people’s impression of it — and he truly did.
