Immerse yourself in a street market and discover the daily life of the people of Santiago. Enjoy an authentic experience full of colors, aromas, and Chilean tradition.

We will begin our tour in the historic MADECO-MADEMSA neighborhood, a neighborhood with a strong working-class past that reflects the industrial and social memory of the San Joaquín district. Here you will learn about its history, marked by the lives of the workers who shaped this community.
From there, we will enter the open-air market, a vibrant and lively space where colors, aromas, and voices mix. You will walk among the stalls selling fresh fruits and vegetables, taste local flavors, and chat with the market vendors, whose friendliness and warmth will make you feel like a local.
It will be an authentic experience that will allow you to discover not only the popular cuisine, but also the culture, identity, and daily life of Santiago's neighborhoods. More than just a tour, it is an invitation to discover the city from its roots and its people.
