Less than 24hrs to explore Santiago!

Really wanted to explore Valpairiso, but didn’t have enough time to as we landed a day late unfortunately. PK, Marie Alice and I did a free walking tour by a guy called Leon. He was good. First time trying a free walking tour. It went on for three hours, starting at Plaza de Armas and endeing in an area where there was lots of restaurants. We tried the recommended Como Agua para chocolate (like the name of the book). Meal was fancier than we had had andit was quite tasty. The guide had told us don’t go to any clubs called ‘Harvard’ or ‘Cambridge’ as people bring guns to them (!?). Club 56 was safe. Not sure if PK went there or not in the end. I needed to get up the next morning for my 6:20am Transvip transfer to the airport.

It was sad to say goodbye to the group. Tanvi and Ginny and Paul were carrying on with their next G adventured group that night. PK was doing Rio to BA and all of us were on to do BA to Rio. Never said bye to Fenella and Eshan nor Astrid. The last time I saw them was at the reception of Hotel Riviera, where the receptionist spoke zero English. The groip have been relying on me a lot for translating menus and communicating with hotel staff. Hope they’ll manage on their own when I’m not around. They should download google translate, maybe?!もっと詳しく
