Free Day in Valparaíso
Valparaíso, Chile
About This Activity
Spend the day getting lost among Cerro Alegre and Cerro Concepción — every staircase reveals new murals and colourful Victorian houses. Ride one of the city's historic ascensores (funicular lifts), browse antique markets on Avenida Argentina, and enjoy fresh seafood at the working port. For a change of pace, the sunny beach town of Viña del Mar is just 20 minutes away by metro.
Seasonal note: Best Oct-Mar
