Chile
Trip Planning & Itineraries
From salty-desert top to glacier-crowded bottom, Chile is a jaw-dropping reminder of nature's beauty and power. This narrow trickle of a country is jammed with enough geysers, mountains, beaches, forests and volcanoes to keep adventure nuts slavering for a lifetime.
Chile's mountainous geography spanning over 30° of latitude makes for some strange climatic variation.
Best of Chile: Top Hotels

Escape from the hustle and bustle of downtown Santiago into this hotel. The Galerias expresses a minimalist indigenous theme in its rooms accented with wood and stone, colonial furniture, hand-woven Andean tapestries and sculptures. Don't miss Restaurant Vichuqużn's creative take on renewed Chilean cuisine and exquisite Chilean wines.
This sleek modern hotel offers great service and boasts the motto "We cultivate the art of good sleeping". And French-owned Eurotel delivers, with impeccable rooms featuring extra-comfortable king and queen beds. Also check out the roof deck with shaded patio tables and views of the Andes.
Though Torremayor's a top-drawer hotel, you won't find stiff upper lips here. A relaxed and modern place, it offers all the high-end comforts without attitude. In fact, it is the Chilean hospitality that makes it stand out. Staff is jovial and accommodating with requests, which is the major difference between this and bigger hotels down the street. The location just blocks from Providencia's many bars and restaurants is a bonus.
Suggested Itineraries in Chile
The tiny colonial village of San Pedro de Atacama has excellent access to the spectacular geysers, volcanoes, salt flats and lakes of the northern altiplano, and it is one of the country's most popular destinations. The town itself has an excellent archaeological museum and pretty 16th-century adobe buildings.
Parque Nacional Lauca is northern Chile's treasure. Within the huge park are herds of llama and alpaca, groups of vizcachas (related to the chinchilla) and over 100 bird species, including flamingos and Andean gulls, plus archaeological landmarks.
