Valparaíso

Valparaíso is a major city, seaport, and educational center in the county or commune of Valparaíso, Chile. It's known for its steep funiculars and colorful, clifftop homes. 

Valparaíso played an important geopolitical role in the second half of the 19th century, when the city served as a major stopover for ships traveling between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by crossing the Straits of Magellan. Valparaíso mushroomed during its golden age, as a magnet for European immigrants, when the city was known by international sailors as "Little San Francisco" and "The Jewel of the Pacific". In 2003, the historic quarter of Valparaíso was declared a United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site.


Diane and Arnold are always a pleasure to work with.

I do love what I do, but they pass me on that. Not only they are very knowledgable but also they have the exeperience it takes to be amazing travel agents. If they're not here in Tampa helping us to plan a fantastic trip, they're traveling themselves to find the best destination yet.
