Information about Chile

Chile is a land of extremes. While Arica basks in tropical heat at its tip, Punta Arenas shivers at its icy tail just short of Antarctica. Chile's wilderness is complemented by its sophisticated cities, developed infrastructure, a gripping history and a fast-evolving culture. All this to make travel to Chile easy, inspiring, surprising and never, ever disappointing.
