Day 1

Valparaiso

Chile holds a central role in global tourism, and Valparaiso exemplifies this with its blend of architectural styles and its influence on poets and painters worldwide. While influencers have covered its picturesque views extensively, Valparaiso hides layers of local life in its alleyways and hilltops, waiting to be discovered by those who venture beyond the mainstream paths.

From what we had read and been told, as first time Scenic guests we had very high expectations, so it was very pleasing to feel at the end of the cruise nearly all of these had been met and many surpassed. In particular the personal, friendly, knowledgeable, but very professional staff did not just provide a service, but really showed they cared for us and our individual requests , such that many of them soon became special friends. The quality and extensive choice of food and beverages was really something exceptional and ensured that throughout the cruise we really did experience all that Scenic had to offer. The tours were incredibly well planned and organised, and so enabled us to visit some very special new places along with some we had been to before . Needless to say the Scenic helicopter flight was a very special treat and will be a lasting memory ensuring that we will "NEVER LOSE OUR SENSE OF WONDER!”
