Santiago de Chile is a modern metropolis with a shiny face and has one of South America's most dynamic economies. At the same time, struggling street vendors board city buses to hawk everything from pins to ice cream, and housemaids ride for hours to scrub floors and change nappies in exclusive suburbs. First and foremost, smog-blighted Santiago is a city of commerce, but there are rewards for the patient traveler - its thriving culinary and artistic enclaves are a joy to discover, and less than an hour away are world-class ski resorts, famous beaches and the colorful port city of Valparaíso.

DAY 1 SANTIAGO

Pick up at Santiago International Airport and transfer to the hotel, then we start to explore the historic and modern sights of Santiago de Chile. We will start our trip at the Alameda Bernardo O'Higgins, Santiago's main avenue, visiting La Moneda, the Government Palace, where your guide will explain to you the historical and actual meaning of this place. Following this we will enjoy a walk through the pedestrian streets of Huérfanos and Ahumada, where the main commercial activity of the city is concentrated. Afterwards we will visit the famous Plaza de Armas, the main square of the city, which is surrounded by the Metropolitan Cathedral and other historical buildings. We will continue by visiting the Santa Lucia hill, the hill upon which the Spanish founded Santiago in 1541. It is a lone steep rock, with many plants and an antique building rising steeply from the city below. From here you can see the Parque Forestal (park) on one side and the Mapocho River on the other. We will cross the river to visit Bellavista, the cultural and artistic neighborhood of Santiago. Bellavista lies at the foot of the Metropolitan Park's San Cristóbal, the highest hill in town, which we will go up and visit. Finally we will visit Providencia with its top- restaurants, elegant shops and modern high-rise buildings. In the afternoon return to your hotel.
