Passing through a fruit valley called curacavi, with its abundance in Mediterranean fruits like avocados, almonds or peach is pleasant but Casablanca, with its famous variety of white grapes like chardonnay or sauvignon blanc and in reds l pinot noir is a must, especially for those wine lovers. Valparaiso is a port with character, 43 hills creating an amphitheater shape with winding narrow cobbled streets. In 2003 it was declared human heritage site by UNESCO, and many buildings are brightly repainted in pastel colours. It has unique interesting features like funiculars or little elevators and antique American made trolley buses that still work on electric lines. I suggest doing a mural and graffiti walk on Conception and Alegre hills, which I master pretty well, after over 19 years of discovering hidden alleys. Valpo is also a good opportunity to try some delicious seafood or fish, there are restaurants overlooking the bay. For a great finale a glimpse of nearby seaside resort, Viña.
Drive in the morning west, towards Valparaiso port, crossing first Curacavi fruit valley and then Casablanca white wine valley. Once at the port, park the car in the Plaza Sotomayor, where the Chilean navy headquarter building is. Here we can do an interesting mural and graffiti walk taking one of the old funiculars called: "el Peral". Then lunch at a seafood restaurant overlooking the bay. After lunch, a short twenty-minute drive north and we see the sharp contrast of Viña del Mar, the most famous Chilean seaside resort city, also known as the garden city. Back in Santiago.
