Itinerary
Giorno 1 — Santiago del Cile
Welcome upon arrival and transfer to the hotel. The room is available starting from 15.00. Walking tour of the city. With the Andes mountain range as its backdrop, Santiago boasts one of the most spectacular settings among the world's capitals, particularly evident on clear winter days when the snow-capped peaks are visible. Although it is now a metropolis, the historic center remains compact and has a beautiful atmosphere, with the greenery of numerous parks and the liveliness of its streets. While not the most spectacular attraction in this kaleidoscopic country, Santiago allows one to understand its identity. Accommodation Almacruz Hotel y Centro de Convenciones.

The park covers an area of 1810 square kilometers and boasts a stunning panorama of peaks, glaciers, and lakes. In the center, the granite "cuernos" and "torres" rise steeply in the flat pampas and are reflected in turquoise and emerald, aquamarine and sapphire-colored lakes.

Giorno 6 — Santiago del Cile → Isola di Pasqua
Breakfast. Airport transfer. Flight to Easter Island (not included). There is no other inhabited place in the world that is as isolated in the sea as Chilean Polynesia. This is what makes Rapa Nui so unique. And it is precisely this condition that gives it its authenticity and an aura of fascinating mystery. Rapa Nui is characterized by pink sand beaches, volcanic meadows, dotted with its more than 1,000 moai, silent witnesses of a complex society. The peak of Rapa Nui's culture is reached during Tapati, a traditional festival held in February where the skills of various local teams are put to the test. Arrive at Easter Island. Transfer to the hotel. In the afternoon visit to Orongo, Rano Kau e Vinapu. Questo tour di mezza giornata ti condurrà attraverso siti archeologici dove potrai rimanere stupito dal villaggio cerimoniale di culto di Make-Make e dal Tangata Manu, nonché dall'imponente cratere Rano Kau, il più grande e profondo dell'isola, e visitare la piattaforma (ahu) con le rocce meglio scolpite, dove si possono vedere anche resti di moai e pukao. Visita guidata ad alcuni dei centri cerimoniali più importanti dell'Isola di Pasqua. Il tour comprende pitture rupestri e siti archeologici di grande valore culturale, una scalata al vulcano Rano Kau e un percorso interpretativo attraverso la città ancestrale di Orongo. Questa visita include i luoghi in cui ogni anno si svolgeva la competizione Tangata Manu (Uomo Uccello), basata su una leggenda fondamentale della cultura Rapa Nui. Typical dinner. Accommodation Otai.
Giorno 7 — Isola di Pasqua
Breakfast. Full day tour of Easter Island. Excursion ad Ahu Akahanga, un sito archeologico con resti di piattaforme dove, secondo la tradizione orale, sarebbe sepolto il primo re dell'isola, che avrebbe cercato questo luogo dopo aver lasciato il suo insediamento ad Anakena. Successivamente visiteremo il vulcano Rano Raraku, dove è stato scolpito il maggior numero di moai. Questo luogo è anche conosciuto come la cava o la “fabbrica moai”. Potrai vedere quasi 400 statue in diverse fasi di intaglio, con caratteristiche e stati di conservazione diversi. Da qui la visita ad Ahu Tongariki, la piattaforma più estesa con il maggior numero di moai restaurati dell'intera isola. Packed lunch. In the afternoon visit to Te Pito Kura, una roccia dalle proprietà magnetiche che sarebbe stata portata dal primo re, chiamata anche “l'ombelico del mondo”, dove vedrete i Paro moai, il più grande che sia mai stato trasferito dalla cava. Ultimo, ma non meno importante, potrai visitare uno dei siti più rilevanti per la cultura Rapa Nui, Hanga Rau o Te Ariki, dove l'Ahu Nau-Nau si trova di fronte alla bellissima spiaggia di Anakena.

Valparaiso is located in the region called Valparaiso, it is a city that stretches along the coast and on 42 hills (cerros), overlooking the Pacific Ocean and is the second most populous city in Chile. The main tourist attractions of Valparaiso are undoubtedly the wonderful murals that adorn the facades of houses in the historic center, perched on the wall of a hill and reachable by elevator or funicular from the modern neighborhoods that instead rise at sea level. One of the houses also houses a museum dedicated to Pablo Neruda, a renowned Chilean poet considered one of the most important figures in Latin American literature. Continuation to Vina del Mar. Known as the "garden city," Viña del Mar captivates with its breathtaking views day and night throughout the year. The city offers beaches, exquisite seafood cuisine, and delights the senses with national and international artists at the International Song Festival, the most important in Latin America, which takes place in February. In the afternoon visit to cantina Casas del Bosque. Esperta nella produzione di varietà a clima freddo, questa tenuta raccoglie le uve bianche esclusivamente di notte. Assaggiate il sapore robusto e indimenticabile del suo Sauvignon Blanc. Potrete passeggiare tra i vigneti e trascorrere un momento incredibile. Return to Santiago of Chile.
