Santiago, Chile - Day 1

Santiago, Chile

Day 1


Today we left the ship and headed to Santiago. Our arrangement for the transfer service worked perfectly. The company was prompt and we were ready at the right time. We arranged for a 10am pickup and we were on our way 10:04am.

Valparaisomania.com is amazing and I highly recommend it. Andres even helped us with the hotel and the transport of some of our group members to the airport.


Had lunch at the Mercado Central, Central Market. It is a mad house with seafood and seafood restaurants dominating the place. Seems like six or eight restaurants kept taking on more and more room with the bigger ones stretching out into branches which I can imagine were their competitors' space. Seafood was good. I don't think they are great. I may have a different opinion if I had the king crab that they keep pushing.


A good stroll through Plaza de Armas and the catedral (no surprises there).
Today, we had to worry about food ...
