La Moneda
We will start the tour by taking the metro to La Moneda, the iconic Government Palace of Chile.

During our stop at the Plaza de la Ciudadanía, you will enjoy a panoramic view of the palace and its surroundings.
Then, we will immerse ourselves in the art and culture of La Moneda Cultural Center, located just below the square.

Museo Chileno de Arte Precolombino
Our next stop will be the fascinating Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art, a real treasure for history and art lovers. This museum houses an extraordinary collection of pieces that transport us to the ancient civilizations of Latin America, long before the arrival of Europeans. Here you can admire artifacts that reflect the cultural wealth and legacy of peoples such as the Incas, Maya, Aztec, Mapuche and other pre-Columbian civilizations.
From ceramics, fabrics and sculptures to jewelry and ritual objects, the museum invites you to discover more than 5,000 years of history through its collection, carefully preserved and exhibited in a modern and didactic atmosphere. Each room is designed to showcase the diversity and depth of the cultures that inhabited the continent, connecting you with their art, beliefs and ways of life.

Plaza de Armas
Our last stop on foot will be the emblematic Plaza de Armas, the founding heart of Santiago. This space has witnessed the growth and development of the city since its founding in 1541. Here, surrounded by historic buildings, we will immerse ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere of the city, where artists, tourists and locals converge.
In front of us stands the majestic Metropolitan Cathedral, an architectural gem of the neoclassical style that dominates the square. We can also see other historic buildings such as the Central Mail and the National Historical Museum. The Plaza de Armas is the perfect place to close our tour, combining history and contemporary urban life.
20 minutes
National Museum of History
In the same Plaza de Armas, we will visit the National Historical Museum, located in the former Palace of the Royal Audience. Here, we will explore the history of Chile through its permanent collections spanning from pre-Hispanic times to the 20th century.
