Discover the true essence of the Porteno soul in Valparaiso, a city that's almost completely intervened by urban art. Even though Valpo is a mere 116 km (72 miles) from Santiago, the vibe of the cities couldn’t be more different. Led by local guide Felipe, this immersive walking tour takes you on a journey to explore the city's rich history and vibrant culture. Valparaiso is often referred to as the 'street art capital of Chile' and for good reason. With politically charged murals and thought-provoking graffiti art around every corner, it's a paradise for art lovers and a reflection of the city's cultural heritage.

Felipe will take you on a journey to discover the historic landmarks, as well as the modern attraction of the street art scene. Don't miss the chance to see the murals of internationally renowned artists like Inti and Charkipunk. Hop on public transportation and visit iconic landmarks such as the gardens of the Museum of Sebastiana (the home of Pablo Neruda) and Alemania Avenue. Explore the vibrant heritage areas of Cerro Alegre and Cerro Concepcion and enjoy a panoramic view of the historic district from Paseo Yugoslavo. Admire the unique architecture as you make your way to Casa Crucero, and marvel at the iconic Scale of Colors.

Take a break at Café Malvarosa or one of the many charming independently run coffee shops that Valparaiso has to offer and indulge in traditional Chilean cuisine like empanadas or a delicious coffee. After your break, stroll along the famous Gervasoni and Atkinson promenades, and end your tour at the Piano Scale. As the tour comes to a close, ride the historic Queen Victoria elevator back.
