Valdivia Private Excursion

We'll pick you up at your hotel at 8 am. From there, we'll travel to Valdivia, named after the Spanish conquistador Pedro de Valdivia, who founded the city in 1522.

The tour begins with a walk along Avenida Arturo Pratt, a waterfront area bordering the Calle-Calle River. Here, we will visit the Feria Fluvial, a riverside market with views of the History and Contemporary Art Museums across the river.

After the market, we will continue along Avenida General Lagos, which leads us through Valdivia's oldest district to the Torreón del Canelo, a watchtower built by the Spaniards.

Next, we'll explore the historic center near the Church of San Francisco, moving on to Plaza de la República, the main square where we can observe the cathedral and government seat. We will then cross the Calle-Calle River via the Pedro de Valdivia Bridge to Teja Island.

Continuing south on the island, we will reach the town of Niebla, where the Valdivia River meets the Pacific Ocean. Here, we'll visit the castle of Niebla and its museum to learn about this historical defensive bastion.

Finally, we will return to your hotel, approximately eleven hours after pickup.
