The experience
The bus runs from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM with departures every hour, so you're not locked into a schedule or a guide's rhythm. You board at any of the 10 stops: Mall Parque Arauco, Bicentenario Park, the cable car up Cerro San Cristóbal, the historic Funicular, Plaza de Armas, Palacio de La Moneda, Cerro Santa Lucía, Plaza de la Aviación, Costanera Center, and the Interactive Museum Las Condes, and stay as long as you want before catching the next bus. The audio guide plays in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and three other languages, so you get context at each stop without waiting for a group or a scheduled narration.
Cerro Santa Lucía sits in the heart of the city with terraces and viewpoints that frame one of Santiago's classic postcards, and Barrio Lastarria (full of cafes and cultural venues) spreads out nearby. Costanera Center, the largest mall in South America, stands next to Sky Costanera tower with 360-degree views of the city. Bicentenario Park sprawls across 27 hectares with lagoons where swans and flamingos drift, and the cable car from Cerro San Cristóbal gives you a five-minute walk to a vantage point over the whole capital. Plaza de Armas holds the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Central Post Office, colonial buildings that frame the city's founding story.
To complete the full circuit, arrive before 4:00 PM so the last bus can finish its run. The Turistik App (available for iOS and Android) shows your bus location and each stop in real time, so you always know when the next one arrives. Arrive at any stop, board when the bus pulls up, and ride to whichever landmark calls next.
Is this one for you?Pick this tour if you want to explore Santiago without a fixed itinerary or a guide setting the pace. The hourly departures mean you can spend a morning at Cerro Santa Lucía or Plaza de Armas and still visit four other landmarks the same day.

Top questions

Yes. Ticket types: Child (3 to 12 years); Infant (under 3): free.
What happens if it rains?
It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.
Can I really get off and back on as many times as I want during the day?
Yes. The hop-on hop-off ticket lets you board and exit at any of the 10 stops as many times as you want within the operating hours (9:30 AM to 6:00 PM). Buses depart every hour, so you can spend two hours at one stop and catch the next bus without penalty.
What is Cerro Santa Lucía like, and how do I get there from the bus?
Cerro Santa Lucía is an urban park at the heart of Santiago with terraces, fountains, and viewpoints that offer some of the city's most recognizable views. The bus stops nearby, and from there you walk up into the park to explore the monuments and take photos. Barrio Lastarria, a neighborhood full of cafes, restaurants, and galleries, sits just below it.
Does the cable car ticket to Cerro San Cristóbal come with this tour?
No. The cable car and funicular tickets are not included in the hop-on hop-off pass. You can purchase them separately when you reach those stops if you want to ride to the top of Cerro San Cristóbal for the 360-degree view of the city.
How do I know when the next bus is coming at my stop?
The Turistik App shows the real-time location of each bus and tells you when the next one will arrive at your stop. The app works on iOS and Android, and buses depart every hour during the day.
What is Costanera Center, and why is it a stop on this tour?
Costanera Center is the largest shopping mall in South America and sits next to Sky Costanera, the tallest tower in the region. The stop gives you access to both shopping and a chance to ride up the tower for 360-degree views of Santiago, or simply walk around the modern architecture and nearby restaurants.
