CHILE TRAVEL GUIDE

Chile Hotels, Restaurants, Spas and More

From sunny beaches to ski slopes, volcanoes to glaciers, Chile is a country of contrast and beauty. Located between The Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, the country offers a multitude of wildly different adventures which travelers would normally have to experience in many different places. Northern Chile is home to the world’s driest desert, while the center of the country comprises farmland, beach resorts, lakes, ski slopes and looming mountains. The central valley is also home to Santiago, the country’s capital and most populated city. Visitors can explore the ice fields of Patagonia and Antarctica at the southern tip and then go out to sea to visit Easter Island and Robinson Crusoe Island.
