Ascensor El Peral

Worth the trip.. its one of the easiest way to get up there to explore the beautiful grafitis and all those charming streets. When u arrived at the top there's a platform/deck to view some beautiful view. If the weather is clear enough you can see the aconcagua mountains from here.

The best way to get up and down the steep slopes of Valparaiso is using one of the many funiculars. And they are super cheap to use too.

Here you can experience the history of Valparaiso. A ride costs 100 pesos and it's worth it. Once at the top you have a beautiful view and can walk through the city.

A cable car that's still working in Valparaíso. 100 pesos per person. Prepare your coins!

If you are in Valparaiso go up one of its ascensores or elevators/ lifts. We have taken both the Ascensor Artilleria and this one. The cost is 100 pesos each way. At the top of El Peral visit the Palacio Baburizza a good museum- see my review for photos. At the top of Artilleria, the great Naval Museum and a row of souvenir shops along the Paseo 21 de mayo - I also have a review. There are places to eat or buy fast food or candy at the top of both ascensores. Photos below are for both. I set 4 photos from Artilleria, set a sunset photo from our apartment to separate, and 3 from El Peral.

Fun experience. Historical. Not to miss

Very nice, well organized, ridiculously cheap, and everyone who works there is attentive and helpful. Unfortunately, while we were there, we witnessed a very rude, loud obese local woman yelling at a worker, which was very unpleasant to see. We truly felt bad for the worker, who was only trying to help. Those kinds of people should be escorted out by police. Very good service overall.
