Description

After the pickup (cruise terminal, hotel, etc.) we will drive directly to the world heritage city of Valparaíso. The only stop will be made at the catholic church lo Vasquez, famous for the biggest pilgrimage in Chile (on the 8th of December). Arriving to Valparaíso, we will explore and learn about the importance of the port city until the opening of the panama channel in 1914. Since about 30 years the city has transformed into the cultural and artistic center of the country, we will stroll through the hills and back alleys, enjoy street art, art galleries and little pubs and shops. We will continue to the capital Santiago de Chile, passing through the famous vine valley of Casablanca. You will see the similarities to the Nappa and Sonoma valleys in California, and it´s the chance to taste one of the best white wines of South America! In the late afternoon, we will arrive at your final destination (cruise terminal, hotel, etc.).
