Your journey begins with a private transfer to Sewell, the legendary “City of Stairways”, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2006. Once a thriving copper mining town high in the Andes, Sewell now stands as a remarkable open-air museum that preserves the spirit of Chile’s mining heritage. On this guided tour, you’ll walk through restored colorful buildings, visit historical facilities, and uncover the fascinating story of how thousands of workers built their lives in one of the most extreme environments in South America. Thanks to the ongoing efforts of the Sewell Foundation, this unique place allows visitors to relive the origins of Chile’s copper industry while admiring the resilience and ingenuity that shaped its history. A journey back in time — where culture, history, and mountain landscapes come together to honor Chile’s industrial legacy.
