About us

A guide made with love for Capilla

Viví Capilla is an independent guide to Capilla del Monte. It is not the tourist office and it does not belong to the municipality: it is made by people who live here and want you to enjoy the town the way we do.

What we believe in

Three things we do not compromise on

Living, verified information

Opening hours, prices and phone numbers are checked by hand and we say when they were verified. If something has changed, let us know and we will fix it.

Direct contact, no commissions

Every listing takes you to the provider's WhatsApp or phone. We charge no commission and do not broker bookings: the deal is between you and them.

Respect for the place

Capilla is a mountain town, not a theme park. Take your rubbish with you, respect the mountain's hours, light no fires and look after the water. Leave no trace.

URI

The alien guide who answers on WhatsApp

URI is an artificial-intelligence assistant with the personality of a visitor from another planet who fell in love with Capilla. It answers 24 hours a day on WhatsApp: bus times, what to do when it rains, where to eat on a Sunday night, how much it costs to climb Uritorco.
