Itinerary
Viña del Mar is the first seaside town in Chile. Also known as the “garden city”, Viña del Mar mesmerizes tourists with its daytime and nighttime activities throughout the year.
Viña del Mar is Chile’s first seaside town, with its “art deco” casino built EN 1930, its magnificent “villas” that border the coast, its Moai (an original statue DE l’Île DE Easter) and its famous flower clock. We also have the Quinta Vergara, with its botanical garden, its recently renovated Museum of Fine Arts.
Reñaca beach, the most exclusive on the coast. Every summer, thousands of visitors from mostly Chile and Argentina stop at this seaside resort. Surfers and sea lions to be spotted!
Concón and its nature sanctuary. Breathtaking view of Valparaiso and the thousand-year-old dunes, rising 120m high.
Valparaiso for lunch and afternoon walk in the hills of Concepción and Alegre, the UNESCO heritage district. You will be able to discover: Caleta Portales, the very picturesque fish market, the Polanco funicular, the one and only "vertical" elevator which rises 80 m high; “La Sebastiana”, one of the three house-museums of Pablo Neruda in Chile, "El Parque Cultural”, the former jail transformed into a Cultural Center... You'll visit Valparaíso at the pace of the “Porteños” (inhabitants of Valparaíso) by taking their public transport as for example the trolleybus “an electric bus”, funiculars, or even the microbuses. Valparaíso is known worldwide as the capital of graffiti! So expect to be amazed by so much color!
"Cerro Alegre" or "happy hill" as the English called it, is aptly named in respect of its heritage houses from European origins, its beautiful cobbled streets, churches and its palaces now converted into a 4-star hotel!
Lunch in the heart of the UNESCO Heritage district. In 15 years, Valparaiso has built a reputation as a gastronomic city and it is a port! You will enjoy tasty fish and seafood dishes!

Vincent was a fantastic tour guide! The tour was so great. Would definitely use him again! Do this tour or any tour he does!!
Vincent was a very nice and professional guide. He was punctual, picked us up at our hotel in Santiago and showed us the highlights of Vina del Mar region and Valparaiso. He explained the main sites and answered to all our questions. We left the hotel in Santiago around 9:30 AM and returned to the hotel around 6:00 PM — so, although it took most of the day, it wasn’t exhausting at all. And Valparaiso is a very impressive city. It definitely worth a visit or even a stay for a longer time. And Vina Del Mar, Renaca and Concon are beautiful places.
The personal tour with Vincent provided us with local knowledge and flair in Vin Del Mar, Concon and Valparaiso. He tailored the tour to suit us.
This was a great tour! Having a driver and tour guide allowed us to get out and enjoy both Viña Del Mar and Valparaiso! Vincent was an awesome guide! We learned so much about each area all while enjoying the beauty of both! Valparaiso has so many hidden gems and it was so fun to experience the UNESCO area! The shops, restaurants, funiculars, street art…all so vibrant! Make sure you ask Vincent to show you the slides and enjoy sliding down right in the city areas!! Definitely a must see and do tour!
Vincent was a great guide and excellent with the kids. He was very good with communication and very punctual. We all really enjoyed our trip to the coast and the history and art of Valparaiso.
Vincent was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable, fun and accomodating. We had a 10 yo and 12yo with us and they loved it as much as us! We saw the recommend sites but Vincent also went off script (ie the fish market!) when we weren’t that keen on some of the other landmarks (ie flower clock!). Would definitely recommend Vincent’s tours to anyone travelling in Santiago.
It was so fun and personalized. It was a great way to kick off our time in Chile. We paid a bit extra to stop at a winery, well worth the cost. I would highly recommend, it was such a fun day!
Our guide, Vincent Liegard, was very personable, engaging and flexible. He was very easy to follow when he provided descriptions and history. We learned a lot about Valparaiso and Viña Del Mar.Last but not least, he was a really good driver! We highly recommend him!
We had a lovely day with Vincent. He customized the tour for us so that we could maximize our day without being exhausted. Communication from booking to completion was excellent. He is knowledgeable and engaging- he has a true passion for the history of the area and it shows. He recommended nice restaurants that were accommodating do some of my family’s dietary restrictions. He ensured that everyone had a great time. If you’re trying to decide on a tour to take from Santiago for the day look no further! Just book this tour with Vincent you’ll have a wonderful time!
The tour is very professionnaly organized with Vincent as super knowledgeable guide. The arrangements were perfect. So I must say it was a success.
Really enjoyed the tour in Vina del Mar and Valparaiso. Vina del Mar is exceptionally beautiful! Vincent and Francisco took us to key spots in both towns and even got the chance to ride the cable car and stop for lunch in a local seafood restaurant.
Had a wonderful day touring Valparaiso and Viña Del Mar. Vincent, our tour guide, was extremely personal, accommodating, and very knowledgeable. Just the right amount of sightseeing by car and walking. Took us to a very quaint restaurant with gorgeous views and delicious food. The ocean, Sea Lions, colorful buildings, graffiti and architecture were magnificent. Highly recommend this tour. It will be unforgettable.
We loved the tourm and Vincent accomodated what we asked and included along the tour a visit to a winery in Casablanca area. The tour was everything that we asked for and more. We loved ValParaiso and the luclnch choice was great also. Thank you Vincentm all the best to you

High quality day trip and fully in line with our expectations. Comfortable vehicle and careful driver. Vincent is extremely friendly and an enthusiastic guide. Full day without any false notes.
So many extraordinary frescoes and the ageless funiculars Very endearing neighborhoods and hills
An unforgettable multi-day tour! Vincent is a guide who will not be forgotten. Passionate, attentive to his customers, always looking to please! An excellent communicator with solid knowledge, seriousness but a touch of humor. He deserves all these compliments, so don't hesitate, entrust him with your visits!
