🌍 Ultimate World Cruise, La Serena Chile: Ep.21 | BZ Travel
In episode 21 of our Ultimate World Cruise series, we take you to La Serena, the second oldest city in Chile. Starting our journey from the port city of Coquimbo, join us, two adventurous retirees, as we discover the rich culture and vibrant life of La Serena.
Our day begins with a quick Uber ride to the bustling La Recova market in La Serena. Here, we immerse ourselves in the local atmosphere, exploring a myriad of stalls offering fresh vegetables, fruits, meats, and gigantic empanadas. The market, with its colorful and lively ambiance, is a true representation of the city's spirit.
As we stroll through the clean and well-maintained streets of La Serena, we're struck by the city's prosperity and charm, a stark contrast to our previous experiences. The city's craft stores, especially those with Balinese merchandise, evoke fond memories of our days as importers.
We also visit Plaza de Armas, surrounded by vendor tents selling unique crafts, where we find some exquisite local jewelry. Our adventure continues in Coquimbo, near the fish market, a place teeming with life, color, and the freshest seafood you can imagine.
Experience La Serena and Coquimbo through our eyes as we explore local markets, interact with residents, and enjoy the simple pleasures of fresh fish and cold beer. This episode is not just a travel vlog; it's an invitation to experience the heart and soul of Chilean culture.

@bztravel Great 👍 all my friends enjoyed. They talked about the filming and your introduction. Very professional 👏 👌
My first job was Chuck E. Cheese’s - that’s crazy they have a location there!!!
Saw your video right after watching one from the homelessnes in California. Glad to live in La Serena...but next time try to pick a different bear...we have better ones!😅
Love the sweater! So beautiful!!

The sweater is great and I used it while in Cusco!
You are the only channel who vlogged this port, I was confused and didn’t know where this is or how I missed it, until I double checked the ship itinerary. Thanks for keeping up ❤
Great video again! I need to know if you did buy that alpaca jacket? The colour really suited you 😉

Yes, so glad I did get the sweater. Came in handy during the cold temp. in Cusco.
I love that Sarko bought the cactus for your cabin - a little something green in the middle of all that blue ocean. Thanks for another great video.

He was thinking about the cactus but the ship crew won't allow fruits, veggies, plants etc.. on board. We can bring on packaged goods. We are not allowed to take fruits and veggies etc. off the ship either.
So enjoying following your trip around the world! Love how you do your own thing instead of being herded with the rest of the passengers on the boat. You looked so nice in the Alpaca Cardigan 😊. Did you buy it? Gail

We're really happy you're enjoying our trip. Doing our own thing is our favorite part, too. It's great to skip the crowd and explore on our own. Glad you like that about our adventures!" I did buy the cardigan and it came in handy during our trip to Cusco, Peru.
Hello How are you i am from Pakistan were are you from nice voice God bless you all ❤❤
How funny that all that stuff is from Bali! I expect you'll be stopping there in a few months time!. How great to see a thriving local market with fresh produce - a disppearing notion here in the UK - unless it's an 'artisanal' market where they can charge three times the price...how nice to get back to your nicely made up cabin and do whatever you fancy - a shower, swim, balcony, nap, read - it sounds perfect!
Are you allowed to bring any fresh produce or flowers or plants back to the ship? The fish market looks super. Local markets here in Dallas have such a limited selection of fish. It seems Zaro might be his happiest when he has a cold beer and some food. Thanks for another great video.

I just have to know, did you get the alpaca jacket? It looked beautiful, and I KNOW it would be so warm! And that dress is lovely.

So many street dogs in South America!
Can you also show us about life on the cruise ship?

So busy doing the port visits however, we have several sea days between L.A. and Hawaii and plan on showing more of the ship and life aboard.
Seeing you are paying with local currency, what do you do with the remaining cash at the final port of that country?
@bztravel

It is easier for the local vendors to receive cash in their currency. We try not to exchange too much at a time but at the end we just spend the rest before boarding the ship. Also, we converted say for example Peso's from Argentina to Chilean currency at the money exchange place in Chile.
