Around 1870, the sole heiress of the lands that gave rise to Viña del Mar was Doña Mercedes Álvarez, married to José Francisco Vergara, an engineer who had come to the region to work on the railway works. It was he who drew up a project, approved on December 29, 1874, through which the city of Viña del Mar was officially founded, and five years later, the Illustrious Municipality.

    Colourful Valparaiso

    We had an amazing visit to Valparaiso, in and down colourful streets and Paulo was very helpful and took us to a couple of additional sites. We did have to change buses part way though - which turned out to be good as the replacement had air conditioning

    A fabulous day out!

    This tour was fabulous in every way! Leaving Santiago we passed through vineyards with one stop and it was good to see how fertile the land is. Paulo, our guide was so knowledgeable and we learned a great deal about all aspects of Chile on the way. On reaching Valparaiso, it was amazing to see so many homes stacked on the hillside and after taking the funicular, we had a fabulous walking tour with Paulo. There was so much art to see on almost every surface and so many artisans were at work. In addition, there were great views of the port and along the coast to Vina del Mar. After driving through Vina del Mar and reaching the very long and golden beaches of Renaca, we had a fantastic seafood lunch at a restaurant recommended by Paulo. We went home tired but very happy after a great day out, thanks to Paulo and our driver, Marcello. Highly recommended! 😊

    Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.

    How much does Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago cost?

    +

    Prices start at $33 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santiago usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago take?

    +

    Plan for about 12 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santiago is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 375 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Santiago, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago?

    +

    Around 131 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santiago can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santiago and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santiago within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Santiago?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Santiago experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Maipo Valley Wine Region: 4 Wineries, Tastings & Foodie Tour, Valparaiso Port and Viña del Mar with Casablanca Wine Tasting, Tour to Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, Pablo Neruda Museum and Vineyard. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Santiago?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Santiago?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago?

    +

    Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Professional guide; and Round-trip shared transfer. Not included: Breakfast; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago include hotel pickup?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago?

    +

    What happens to Full Day Guided Trip to Valparaíso Viña del Mar & Reñaca from Santiago if the weather is bad?
