The local council in Valpo decided to increase the price of a ticket by 150% on the main access funicular lift to Cerro Concepcion, the most heavily visited area of the city by foreign and Chilean tourists.

The price hike is aimed squarely at tourists and there are many petitions being organised by local residents. If possible, do not use the lift and please sign any petition that might come your way.

You'll notice anti-increase posters in the windows of almost every home in the area. The council's decision is an embarrassment to the people who live in Valparaiso as price gouging is not something they want to be a part of.

Please read and please support the petition:
