Tour description
Valparaíso is Chile's most romantic and rebellious city, a UNESCO World Heritage port where colorful houses cascade down steep hillsides crisscrossed by stairways, alleys, and creaking Victorian funiculars. Beloved by poets and artists, it is one of the world's great street art capitals. On this walking tour, a local guide will lead you into this colorful and poetic labyrinth.
You will ride a historic funicular, stroll through mural-lined hillside alleys, and take in sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean. Along the way, you'll hear stories of sailors, poets like Pablo Neruda, and the free-spirited soul of 'Valpo.' Bohemian and enchanting, Valparaíso is a city made to be explored on foot.
