Viña del Mar Spa City Tour - Private

Start time: 10:00 am

• We will start from Quinta Vergara through the wonderful places of this forest park that includes the residence of the founder of the city and the Amphitheater where the Viña del Mar Festival takes place every year.
• We will also see the exotic species of trees that were planted in this residence by the founding family of the city. We will move to the Parroquia Nuestra Señora de Dolores that shows the Catholic tradition rooted in the local culture.
• From there we can also appreciate the architectural beauty of the Viña del Mar Club, a social club of the elite society of the Belle Epoque. We will visit the Municipal Square and cross the Marga-Marga Estuary, to enjoy artistic, sculptural and architectural wonders, by visiting the Carrasco Palace, with its Auguste Rodin original, and the Rioja Palace.
• These palaces were the enormous residences of great Spanish businessmen of the time, converted into museums. On the way, you will see an exotic Moai sculpture from Easter Island (Rapa Nui) and other works from the Natural History museum.
• Then we will go to enjoy the modern city through the other sector and we will go to the beautiful beaches of this sector of the Pacific Sea (Las Salinas Beach, Reñaca Beach, El Sol Beach, Sport Beach, Los Cañones Beach). We will see the variety of local and international gastronomy (Peruvian, Arabic, Italian, German) that survives as a way of serving the visitors who arrive in the city each summer.
• You can take beautiful photographs of the views towards the Concon -Reñaca sector and towards the opposite side on the border with Valparaíso. We will reach sectors where you can detect the great importance that is given to a healthy lifestyle by the sea and the elevation of its residential architecture that contrasts with the sand and the waves. We will visit the different beach sectors, from Playa de las Salinas to Playa Los Cañones, passing through Playa Acapulco and Playa El Sol. Then we will arrive at Muelle Vergara, which recalls the industrial origin of the city.
• On the way back we will optionally visit the Municipal Casino, the Wülff Castle, the Ducal CAP and we will get views of the Brunet Castle, Ross Palace, the Sheraton Miramar Hotel, the Presidential Summer House and the Arab Union Club. You will enjoy a quiet walk along the coast. We will visit from the iconic Flower Clock where you can locate places to have lunch, rest, enjoy the breeze, take beautiful photographs, admire the beauty of the marine life and the coastal edge.
• At the end we will arrive at a beach area Playa Caleta Abarca and do not forget, if you wish, to follow the tradition of putting your feet in the Pacific Sea. I invite you to visit the best known places in the city to enjoy the mixture of tradition and modernity of this beautiful spa city.
• The entire tour is complemented with audiovisual material, old photographs, anecdotes and curious facts that allow you to travel back in time and “understand” the city and its history.
