Enjoy the ride out of Santiago, through beautiful Central Valley. Hit the coast at San Antonio, a busy port town—check out the market if time permits—then head northward to Cartagena, a town whose hills fall abruptly to the sea, Costa Azul, Las Cruces, and El Tabo. Last stop: the peaceful Isla Negra, a small resort made famous by its most famous inhabitant, the renown poet Pablo Neruda. Neruda won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1971. He passed away in 1973, and this, reputedly his favorite of his three houses, is now a museum, an eclectic assembly of the poet's many collections—miniatures, vessels, colored bottles, fine glassware and seashells, to name a few—as well as his manuscripts. The house and its ocean view served as an everlasting source of inspiration for Neruda, and both are absolutely enchanting. Enjoy a relaxing lunch (not included) at one of the restaurants in town. Return to Santiago in the afternoon through the seaside resort of Algarrobo.
