Ultimate CHILE Travel Guide
Chile is a country located in South America. Santiago is the capital and it is a country known for its culture, natural wonders, and diversity. Our Chile travel guide is here to help you see the best it offers.
Don’t let the skinny strip of Chile on the map fool you into thinking there isn’t much there. If you love adventure and wild landscapes, Chile delivers that and so much more.
The most famous area is Patagonia and if you like hiking, Torres del Paine is world-famous. Nearby Punta Arenas offers glaciers and penguins too.
For elevation, salt flats, flamingos, geysers and volcanoes, head north to the Atacama Desert. This area blew our minds and we couldn’t believe we had overlooked it on previous trips to South America.
Also, if you didn’t know, Easter Island is politically part of Chile. While we classify it as part of Oceania, the best way to access this intriguing place is from Santiago.
