Fantastic Street Art & History Tour in Valparaíso

5.00We love street art and have taken similar tours in places like Greece, so we were excited to explore Valparaíso this way, and it did not disappoint! Benjamin was our guide, and he was fantastic. His knowledge of the city’s history is incredible; it felt like walking with a passionate human encyclopedia. Before we started, he asked how much history versus "just look at pretty street and art," and we told him we liked a mix of both. Benjamin struck the perfect balance and pointed out so many details in the artwork that we never would have noticed on our own. He also explained the stories behind statues, landmarks, and the fascinating history of Valparaíso. Along the way we stopped for a treat, rode one of the city’s famous funiculars, and even met some friendly local shop owners. It felt like a very authentic way to experience the city. If you want a great tour with a knowledgeable and passionate guide who truly loves sharing Chile’s culture and history, look no further. Highly recommended!

5.00Grex was an awesome tour guide who is from Valparaiso making the experience feel comfortable the whole way. We were able to meet some of the artists themselves which was really cool. It was a smaller group of 5 so it made it feel very intimate and like we were moving at a comfortable pace. Directions to meeting point were exactly as instructed and Grex did a great job at contacting us to make sure we found the location and no one was left behind. Thank you Grex!
Wonderful Art Tour

5.00Fabulous tour is you are interested in street art. Each street was more interesting than the previous. And there are art and craft stores, often carrying the work of the street artists. And it’s an historical wealthy neighborhood. So there were interesting buildings, as well, and views of the city from the heights. Our Guide, Grex, was knowledgeable and personable.

5.00My husband and I used the services of Alexander at Still Traveling during our trip to Viña del Mar. He assisted us with a tour of Valparaiso, a visit to a wine expo, and a booking of a trip to Rapa Nui. Alexander was very friendly, knowledgeable and reliable. I highly recommend him for any traveling needs.
