Capel Pisco Distillery | Tourist Attraction

We WhatsApp’d in advance and didn’t receive a response, so turned up and was able to join a tour within 15 minutes. The tour was delivered in both English and Spanish and very informative on the Pisco production process.
Tour was $5,000 per person and that included a tasting plus the tasting glass was a gift.
We bought heaps from the Pisco, wine and other spirits from the store after the tour as it was so competitively priced.
Free wifi. Also, they have accommodation huts onsite.

Wir haben die Cocktailtour gemacht und würden nur noch die Tour Capel empfehlen. Günstiger und man kriegt mehr. Bei der Cocktailtour macht man einen Cocktail und kann keinen Pisco pur probieren. Das Geschenk ist ein Messbecher...

Came here for a tour and tasting. According to a staff member this is possible all day, every half hour. But somehow, she said we had to wait 45 mins ...? We asked if we could just do a tasting then. Not really, but she did offer us a small sip from one of their 40% piscos (for free). In the end, we didn't feel like waiting for the tour and decided to try our luck elsewhere. Place looked nice though, and includes a small museum. Unfortunately only possible to visit as part of a tour. Very cleans toilets!

When we arrived arount 11 am only to get information about the tours, we got the chance to do a tour (CH$ 4‘000 pp) in English right away. Since we were the only ones (Friday, 11.25 am), we got a private tour. The tour includes a short video (introducing some of the families working for the cooperative CAPEL), walking through a little museum (old bottles, labels and others), visiting the distillery including two tastings (clear and one that aged in an oak barrel) -> you can keep the tasting glas as a present. The tour lasted longer than 45 minutes and Evie did a great job with a good sense of humour (please do not mix pisco with coca cola!😉). We would absolutely recommend this tour - good price for value!

PS: The harvest is in February and during this time there will be lots of festivals in the Elqui Valley!

Excellent tour guide Evie. Very knowledgeable and spoke good English. 4000pp and the tour lasted well over 45 mins. Mid week so no other English-speaking guests so had a 'private' tour.

4000 Peso/ Person for us was a good and friendly Tour. We were lucky and had a privat tour, one Guide and two of us. Including trying two different Piscos and we could take the Glases with us, it was a present.
