This private Valparaíso and Viña del Mar day tour from Santiago takes you to the Pacific coast in a single, well-paced day. It blends history, architecture, ocean views and food, with a flexible itinerary built around your group.
In Valparaíso, a UNESCO World Heritage city, we visit the port viewpoint, Plaza Sotomayor and the Cerro Concepción and Cerro Alegre hills, famous for their street art, funiculars and hidden corners. In Viña del Mar, the "Garden City", we stop at Quinta Vergara and the Flower Clock, and you can have lunch by the sea in Reñaca. We end the day at the Concón sand dunes.
We pick you up at your hotel, the airport or your home. On the way to the coast we stop at Río Tinto for a complimentary wine tasting. Add our optional bilingual guide if you would like the stories behind each stop in English.
