Valdivia Private Excursion
We'll pick you up at your hotel at 8 am. From here, we'll leave the Los Lagos region and travel to Valdivia, named after the Spanish conquistador Pedro de Valdivia, who founded the city in 1522.
We'll start our tour by walking along Avenida Arturo Pratt, a waterfront bordering the Calle-Calle River. Here, we'll visit the Feria Fluvial, a riverside market with views of the History and Contemporary Art Museums across the river.
After the Feria Fluvial, where you can have a drink on your own, we will continue on Avenida General Lagos through the city's oldest district until reaching the Torreón del Canelo, a watchtower built by the Spaniards.
Next, we'll explore the historic center near the Church of San Francisco and continue to Plaza de la República, where we can observe the cathedral and the government seat. Then, we'll cross the Calle-Calle River via the Pedro de Valdivia Bridge to Teja Island.
Heading south on the island, we'll arrive at Niebla, where the Valdivia River meets the Pacific Ocean. The location led to the construction of the castle of Niebla, which we will visit to learn about its history.
Finally, we will return to your hotel, arriving eleven hours after pickup.
