Valparaíso and Viña del Mar tour from Santiago: full day

Heritage, ocean and wine country, all in one day

This Viña del Mar and Valparaíso tour from Santiago combines in a single day the hills of Valparaíso (Paradise Valley), declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the seafront of Viña del Mar (literally, the vineyard by the sea) and a stop at a winemaking cooperative in the Casablanca Valley, with a tasting included.

In Valparaíso the tour is on foot through Cerro Alegre, Cerro Concepción and Cerro Artillería, with their steep streets, brightly painted houses, Plaza Sotomayor and Paseo 21 de Mayo, passing by La Sebastiana (Pablo Neruda’s house-museum). The group then moves on to Viña del Mar, home of the international song festival at the Quinta Vergara amphitheater, to see its beaches, the Flower Clock and the Fonck Museum, before returning to Santiago.

If you like the coast, also check out Isla Negra and Pomaire, Pablo Neruda’s seaside house.
