Private Full-Day Tour: Valparaíso & Wines

Start the tour by departing from your Santiago hotel in a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan. Begin the scenic drive through the outskirts of Santiago, including Casablanca Valley.

The first stop will be in Valparaiso City where we’ll explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site on foot. We will visit the port, the Plaza Sotomayor, the Cerro Alegre, Concepcion and Florida hill, using local transport such as the Trolebús (trolley bus) and elevators, both heritage elements. We can look at the amazing street art there and learn about the history, architecture, and legacy of the early 20th, late 19th century immigrants who made this city so multicultural and cosmopolitan. Once we’ve finished our tour, we will have lunch at a local restaurant (not included).

After lunch we will visit the organic vineyard, the Emiliana Winery. Despite its late start in wine production, Casablanca Valley has gained recognition worldwide for the production of white and red wines. Take the opportunity to taste 4 different wines produced here, accompanied by a local cheese or chocolate. Take a guided tour of the winery afterward, where you will also learn how the plants and livestock ensure the organic growth of the grapes.

Finally, return to the minivan and begin your journey back to the capital where you’ll have the evening to rest and sample one of the local restaurants.
