Did you know that Santiago is considered the spearhead of the Latin American economy, but also a city marked by the shadows of its past?
On this 45-minute express tour, we'll walk from Tobalaba , in the heart of Providencia, to Sculpture Park , passing through the financial district known as Sanhattan . We'll see how the glass and steel skyscrapers tell the story of an "economic miracle," but also of deep inequalities born during Pinochet's dictatorship.
During the tour we will explore:
- Av. Apoquindo : from residential neighborhood to corporate epicenter.
- Costanera Center : the tallest skyscraper in Latin America and a symbol of the Chilean economic model.
- Streets of Sanhattan : Banks, multinationals and globalization in real time.
- Sculpture Park : a cultural highlight facing the Mapocho River, perfect for reflecting on how memory and art interact with Santiago's modernity.
📍 Start : Tobalaba Metro
📍 Final : Sculpture Park
⏱ Duration : 45 minutes

I hope that my tour through the beautiful old town will help you say, just like me, that "I lost my heart in Heidelberg". As a Heidelberg student, I live in the middle of the city's hustle and bustle and would like to convey the perspective of a student and the fascinating history of Heidelberg in a guided tour through the old town.
The best bars, the nicest alleys, the most stylish buildings and the castle itself provide a great insight and should not be missed on a tour.
If you want to learn about the history of the old castle, the long struggle for supremacy in Heidelberg, student life in the past compared to today, the best bars and restaurants in Heidelberg, as well as life today, you have come to the right place.
I am very happy to be able to show you all this and much more here in Heidelberg.
