BLACK ISLAND AND CHILEAN WINE

The tour was fantastic. The visit to Neruda's house allowed us to gain insight into his daily life, his experiences inside and out, and his interaction with the outside world, the sea, and its changing states. The contrasting colors and the objects on display were very interesting. The subsequent tour of the artisans' corner featured an interesting selection of anthracite stone objects. Lunch was then served in Algarrobo, overlooking the sea, at a restaurant in a prominent condominium. Finally, a visit and tasting at the Undurraga winery was conducted throughout the tour by Cristian, an experienced host.

The guide, Cristian, was very cool and informative. The tour of the Undurraga vineyard was great, and the wine tasting was excellent. The walk through the Algarrobo spa was lovely. The Black Island was a bit disappointing since it's not an island, but a small spa town, and if you don't visit Pablo Neruda's house, you'll have nothing to do but walk a few blocks. For foreigners who choose this tour because of the "Black Island," I recommend lowering your expectations.
