MBD Travel Valparaiso Guide
More than a list of sights: a practical guide to planning the order of your trip, choosing where to stay and adapting the plan to the season.
Valparaiso Guide 2026
Valparaíso is a port city spread over the hills of Chile's Pacific coast. Its historic quarter of colourful houses is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the historic funicular lifts that climb the hills are its emblem. Chile's National Congress sits here. It is usually visited together with the neighbouring seaside city of Viña del Mar.
What to see in Valparaíso
- Cerro Alegre and Cerro Concepción: two hill districts full of murals and coloured houses.
- The funicular lifts: lifts that climb from the port to the hills, more than a century old.
- La Sebastiana: the poet Pablo Neruda's house in the city.
- Viña del Mar: the neighbouring seaside city, with its beach and gardens.
When to go
December to March is dry and mild, with highs of 20 to 21 degrees and 1 to 6 millimetres of rain. June to August is cool and wet, with highs of 15 degrees and 127 millimetres in June. In summer, sea fog can leave the mornings overcast.
