Overview
This private tour shows both faces of Santiago: the old colonial capital and the modern city. It begins at La Moneda, the presidential palace that once housed the mint, and continues to the Plaza de Armas with its cathedral, old post office, Palacio de la Real Audiencia and Casa Colorada.
The tour includes a ride on a historic elevator and a cable car, with views toward the Andes.
