HOW TO GET TO VALPARAISO
Getting to
Valparaiso is quite easy. Due to its
closeness to Santiago -115 kilometros- it is easily accessible overland.
The trip lasts one and a half hours, and a large number of buses
cover the route, making things easier. An alternative option is
renting a car in Santiago and taking Ruta 68. You will get there
faster.
The city also has an airport, Mataveri International Airport, some 20 kilometers to the north, catering for all kinds of aircraft. Lan Chile has regular flights here from Santiago and Papeete (Tahiti); as well, in the high season (December through April), European cruisers dock at the port.
