Meeting point

Plaza Anibal Pinto

On arrival

We will meet in the Plaza Anibal Pinto de Valparaíso, in front of the Neptune god.

To get from Viña del Mar, you can take any locomotion that says "Valparaiso or the Port." You have to get off at the Bellavista station (metro, microbus, or colectivo) and walk 2 blocks towards Conception Hill.

We will be located in the center of the square, right next to the pond of the god Neptune, wearing a white t-shirt and an umbrella with red letters that say CERRO47 WALKING TOURS.
