Your adventure begins in Coquimbo, the source of swashbuckling pirate legends. Savor the narrated drive past seaside resorts accompanied by colorful tales of Henry Drake, the English privateer. Following the "route of the grapes" into the Elqui Valley, stop at one of the area's renowned Pisco distilleries. Sample the potent brandy made from distilled grape juice and learn how the popular drink Pisco Sour came to be. While you're in Vicuna, see the Mistral Monument commemorating the lifework of Nobel Laureate Gabriela Mistral. You'll shop for souvenirs at La Recova Market, a one-time fortress housing colonial cannons, stop for lunch at a local restaurant and enjoy the scenic drive back to your ship for a deep personal connection with this remarkable part of the world.
