Cycling & Wine Tour Chile

Waves & Wine is a seven-day guided e-bike tour through Chile's finest wine regions, from the Pacific coast to the heart of Carmenère country. Starting in the cool coastal vineyards of the Rosario and Casablanca valleys, you'll stay at a colonial hacienda on a working vineyard, enjoy cellar tours and tastings, and watch a traditional huaso horsemanship show.

The route then heads to the Pacific, climbing over coastal hills with ocean views to the surf town of Pichilemu, before turning inland to the warmer Colchagua Valley. Ride quiet country roads past Central Valley villages, the Tinguiririca River and historic azudas (watermills), with private boutique winery tastings and a traditional asado along the way. Two nights at the acclaimed VIK Chile retreat, a historical tasting at the five-generation Casa Silva estate, and e-bikes for every rider complete this indulgent journey.
