About Valparaíso for Solo Travelers

A hillside city of street art, Victorian funiculars, and Pacific views — Valparaíso rewards solo wanderers who get lost in the coloured staircases and find a mural around every corner.

Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly

Valparaíso is one of South America's most visually extraordinary cities — 42 hills covered in street art, funicular elevators, and coloured houses overlooking the Pacific. Solo wandering here is the activity; get deliberately lost in the cerros. The cerro Alegre and Concepción hills are the most vibrant and safe for solo exploration. The nightlife is excellent and social. Stay in a hostel on the hills for the full experience.
