Museum of Memory and Human Rights Tours and Tickets

Come and learn at the Museum of Memory and Human Rights in Chile! The guided tour will be led by Héctor, a political analyst, who will provide you with an educational experience filled with reflection, additional information, and much more. The tour aims to offer a comprehensive and professional visit, incorporating factual data and historical evidence, as well as declassified archives and documents that will be shared after the tour, adding context to the museum's history. He will discuss aspects that may not be fully explored in the museum itself, providing a panoramic and pragmatic understanding of the impact that the years of dictatorship had, and continue to have, on Chilean society and institutions, and how they shaped certain cultural, social, and political attitudes in the country. This tour is ideal for travelers seeking a deeper understanding of local realities through history, as well as the coup, the intervention, and its implications.

A vibrant route where art, identity, and community take center stage. We begin in the historic Quinta Normal Park and briefly visit the Museum of Memory and Human Rights, learning its history as a valuable introduction to the context of much of Santiago's urban expression. Then, we delve into the streets of Yungay, transformed into open-air galleries. Striking murals tell stories; we'll meet the artists and learn about the local people. We'll explore emblematic cultural corners like the Adriana Cousiño Passage and the Lucrecia Valdés Passage, discovering historic facades bursting with color. We'll visit the neighborhood artists' gallery, meet some of the artists, and then continue with more murals and some hidden gems, such as the French Hair Salon (the second oldest in the world), and cool restaurants. With Roots & Routes, we believe in meaningful tourism and will recommend the best local art spaces, restaurants, and bars so you can continue exploring the creative heart of Santiago.

Following progressive tours philosophy we decided to extend from 4 to 6 hours the Santiago city tour. With an unrushed execution we're able to enjoy the spots properly (example: tasting the flavors on the markets INSTEAD OF JUST PASSING THROUGH the "mercado central") In that way we'll cover more essential places that are important places to be able to understand, enjoy and get a little more lf the vibe of our city.

We will visit two of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Santiago. We will start with the normal Parque Quinta to continue with the most colorful and artistic neighborhood in the city, "El Barrio Yungay" which appears on the list of the coolest neighborhoods in the world. Its history will transport us in time through its architecture from the 20s and to that are added all the GRAFFITIS and street art that stands out in the neighborhood. We will continue discovering the Barrio Brasil which, with its very bohemian essence, allows us to have a wide variety of Bars and Restaurants close to the end point of the tour: the Concha y Toro Neighborhood, another architectural work of art in the sector.
