Your Travel Experience with South American Tours DMC
At the beginning of your tour, you will drive to the center of the city to the Alameda, the main street, which is located right in the heart of the city. In this main street you can see old, important buildings such as the government palace La Moneda, the Universidad de Chile, the Church of San Francisco, the National Library and Santa Lucia Hill, where Santiago was founded in 1541. In the city center, you will also visit the main square with its cathedral and the old post office. Your route through Santiago continues to the Mercado Central, the main market for fish and seafood. Following the Alameda, you cross the Río Mapocho. You travel through the artistic and nightlife district of Bellavista to the Cerro San Cristóbal viewpoint. From here you have a fantastic view over the seemingly endless sea of houses in Santiago and the impressive backdrop of the nearby high Cordillera. A visit to the modern residential areas of Vitacura, Las Condes and the business and shopping district of Providencia will round off your visit to the capital.
