Hi everyone, I'm Ayxa. I consider myself passionate about the neighborhood and its history. My hobby is walking and discovering surprising historical details, those urban details that can only be seen on foot. I love meeting people from different places and learning from each one of them so book my tour and let's walk together.

Ayxa was knowledgeable and excited about the center we where learning about. She knew a lot of information you just cant get anywhere else and was very nice.

Muy recomendable! Se recibe informaciónes que no se encuentran en ningún libro ni de una guía común. Muy muy bien, inspirando y divertido!

Desgraciadamente, cuando llegue al lugar indicado (despues de haberme aceptado un par de horas antes), no había nadie. Al escribir a Ayxa, me contestó que había cancelado por una urgencia. Entiendo que hay urgencias y lo respeto, pero podría haber avisado antes y no esperar a que yo le tuviera que contactar. Me costo tiempo y dinero llegar al sitio indicado. Era mi último dia en Santiago y no hice otro tour porque Ayxa confirmo.

La experiencia superó mis expectativas. Comenzamos el tour haciendo un recorrido por obras y esculturas que encierran dentro de sí un valor simbólico en el Centro Cultural Gabriela Mistral las cuales sin una guía pasarían desapercibidas. Terminado el recorrido por el Centro Cultural comienza el paseo por el barrio San Borja lleno de historia y datos de lo que ha simbolizado el barrio. Fue una muy grata experiencia y se demostró el profesionalismo y la calidad humana de Ayxa. Sin duda lo recomiendo.

Ayxa was friendly, engaging, and clearly passionate about the information she was sharing. She spoke fluent English and was easy to understand as well.
