Description

At the indicated time, we´ll meet at Plaza Sotomayor. From there we´ll head to Cerro Playa Ancha, one of the most extensive neighborhoods in the city.

We´ll board a public bus to get closer to the area and start touring Playa Ancha. Did you know that some of the most beautiful Victorian houses in the city are located here? They might remind you of the typical houses in San Francisco, California.

As we walk through the neighborhood, we´ll go into century-old warehouses and local stores to learn about Porteño culture. We´ll also enjoy unique views of Valparaiso Bay. You won´t stop taking pictures!

After 2 fun-packed hours, we´ll finish the tour as we arrive back at the meeting point.
