This 13-day itinerary begins in Santiago, where you'll explore Barrio Lastarria, the Pre-Columbian Art Museum, and Pablo Neruda's whimsical La Chascona before the city gives way to the coast. Continue to Valparaíso, a bohemian port city recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its winding hillside streets and vivid street art.
