What to do and see in Vina del Mar, Valparaiso Region: The Best Sightseeing Tours

July 1, 2021 Alida England

The most popular beach resort in the country, Vina del Mar is within reach of both Santiago and Valparaiso. Vina teems with tourists during peak months December, January and February, despite Antarctic currents that make swimming a formidable prospect. Renaca is the hippest spot to sink onto the sands. The Fonck Museum and Quinta Vergara provide insights into the area's recent and ancient history, archaeology and natural history. Stroll along Avenida Peru and take in stunning ocean views.

We had to get a taxi to find the address we wanted but true to the description we were emailed we found a black gate with an entry buzzer to gain entry. Balthazar was our guide for the day and once we were fitted out with some excellent bikes we were off just the 3 of use which was perfect as Balthazar really looked after us. For a very young age he was very knowledgable and his English was excellent. He took us to all the main sights and attractions telling us about things as we stopped to take it all in. I would highly recommend using this tour company

Did this trip in February. To sum it up it consists of 11 hours in a minivan to visit three churches in Chiloe, none of them is interesting unless you are an academic interested in the technical details of wooden church building in the mid 19th century. However good the guides are (and our guide was excellent) this piece of Chile is not worth visiting. The drive to Castro in Chiloe island comprises a 70km motorway run to a ferry and then more than two hours driving along a scruffy, semi industrialised road with no redeeming features to Castro. On arrival the only logical question is "why bother". There are so many beautiful places in Chile I would suggest that people give this excursion a swerve and prevent the total waste of a day of their lives.

We had a great trip to the observatory. We were picked up by Susie who was super friendly and informative. When we arrived Demaso already had a telescope set up so we could see sunstorms before it set. We got to see stars like Sirius while the sky was still light. As the night went on we used more and more advanced telescopes, and saw several stars and constellations not visible in the northern hemisphere. Demaso was extremely knowledgeable and passionate, we couldn’t have asked for a better host. He is so generous to open his home to guests to share his passion! He also has three dogs who were very sweet. We can’t recommend this enough, and would love to go again.

We took this tour last year. The guide doesn’t speak English at all, and keep repeating the same information over and over. They also don’t let you move and ask you to be next to them all the time. Amazing place but awful guide

We had a pleasure of Waldo being our tour guide driving and showing us around Valparaiso. We had 2 children that are still young, so flexibility of the schedule is a must and Waldo is very flexible and intuitive of our needs. He even prepared desserts, drinks, fruits, you name it, he brought them with him so we have a pleasant day through out the day, as most of the restaurants is still closed during Phase 2. He even brought our bags along and carried them securely,to prevent robbery. Thank you Waldo for being very patient with us and waited until we had great photo for our Instagrams. We really recommend him!

A country with a very special geography invites us to visit Valparaiso and viña del mar which will bring us closer to history 120 kilometers from the capital, passing through valleys which give us a vision of central Chile so your guide stop for your wine tasting , when we reach the coast we can see the real meaning of the port city of Valparaiso, the first foot of the history of Chile a whole landscape like a rainbow is a perception of something that calls the popular and traditional inmercion and then viña del mar that is a very different and very beautiful city, which reminds us of its first social group aristocracy that I inhabit the garden city as they call it now a great contrast between both cities exploring history and the miscelanio of the city  of viña del mar as a citizen. we back to the city and we can drop off to you at the airport or to the hotel. REMEMBER THE GUIDE WILL BE WAITING AT THE PIER FOR YOU AND READY TO START THE ACTIVITY.

The Rapa Nui National Park is not cheap as we pay 54,000 Chilean Peso (80US $) per person. You have no choice, because you come to Easter Island to admire the impressive Moai statues. Easter Island is special and I am glad I saw it

Tour date: Dec 12, 2020. Our tour with Alex, an enthusiastic Cuban native that speaks English well and has a great interest in history and traveling, was excellent. His knowledge of Valparaíso, from its foundation to its current state is great. What is especially interesting is his extensive knowledge of the different street art and murals. The Chilean people express their political desires, discontent and scandals through graffiti and Alex shows how to read these beautiful paintings. All is done in a safe, entertaining and very friendly manner, which makes us recommend this tour highly to anyone. Thank you Alex!
