Follow in the footsteps of Pablo Neruda and be seduced by the deep blue Pacific ocean crashing against the rocky coastline of Isla Negra. Besides visiting the famous poet's house, we will also discover a traditional village with a rich artisan heritage.

Isla Negra and Pomaire Trip

After collecting you from your hotel at 8 am, we will head to a stretch of coastline in central Chile known as Isla Negra.

Pablo Neruda owned three homes in Chile, but his favorite was here in Isla Negra. We will visit this house, resembling a boat, which contains nautical memorabilia, including figureheads, sailboat replicas, model boats in bottles, seashells, and whale teeth. All items relate to the poet's work.

After learning about Neruda's final residence, we will visit the graves of the poet and his muse, Matilde Urrutia, situated on a clifftop with views of the Pacific ocean.

On the way back to Santiago, we will stop in Pomaire, a town known for artisan pottery. You will learn about this clay art form and see the region's smooth, red-toned ceramic artworks. Here, you will have free time for lunch at a local restaurant.

To conclude the tour, we will visit Viña Undurraga, a historic winery. We will have the opportunity to taste some of their wines, crafted over more than 130 years.

After a full day exploring Isla Negra and Pomaire, we will return to Santiago, finishing the tour at your hotel around 4 pm.
