Excellent trip but the bus was too cramped. The lunch spot was too expensive & not nice food either I’m afraid.

Bianco did a great job shepherding us around Valparaiso. Viña del Mar was less spectacular, but interesting nevertheless. The breakfast stop was just chaotic for a non Spanish speaker, but no objections. The lunch restaurant was great.
