Hello! My name is Alex, and I'm an international tourism professional. I have 23 years of experience in the tourism sector and 10 years in Chile. I've recently returned after leading tours in Cuba and visiting Panama. I'm a traveler like you, but I'm also a guide in various destinations. I worked for 15 years in a German travel agency, earned my PhD in 2009, and completed my MBA in International Tourism in 2022. I'm a speaker at courses and events, and a lecturer at universities and institutes specializing in tourism. I never lose my passion for travel and sharing. This time, I'll take you on a journey through the streets and stories of Valparaíso and Viña del Mar, wonderful cities on Chile's central coast. I've previously lived in Weiden in der Oberpfalz, Munich, Caracas, Havana, Panama City, La Paz, and Mexico City. I've lived in Valparaíso since 2016 and in Viña del Mar since 2026. Your contribution helps me bring my tour style to other cities like Tokyo, Seoul, Mallorca, Montreal, Oslo, Stockholm, London, Sydney, Vancouver, California, Hamburg, and New York, where new adventures await me. Thanks to the invitations from clients, partners, and international tour operators, I'm continuing to travel, learn, and share with you. If you see me somewhere else in the world, feel free to say hello—it's me! :) Your contribution motivates me to keep traveling, connecting, and sharing in different parts of the world.
Benjamin was a great tour guide, offering a real insight into life in Valparaiso, especially through the artwork and murals that exist around the city. Would highly recommend!
