Overview

In this walking tour, you will discover Santiago’s historic heart on a journey through its most iconic landmarks and photogenic streets.

We will meet at Plaza Benjamín Vicuña Mackenna; we will visit the foot of Santa Lucia Hill (Fuente Neptuno or Neptuno Fountain), but we will not climb the hill.

Then, we will walk through Santiago's main street, Alameda, visiting: The National Library, San Francisco Church, New York Street, Bandera Street, La Moneda Palace, Ahumada Pedestrian Walk, Plaza de Armas, National Museum of Fine Arts, and the Forestal Park.

The tour is focused on visiting spots that can make a great picture for your Instagram, so we will visit all of the buildings, but we will not enter them. Along the way, discover Chilean history, architecture, and hidden stories, with plenty of opportunities to capture unforgettable photos for Instagram.
