FROM TOP TO BOTTOM

Blessed with the striking Andes Mountain range as a backdrop, Chile effortlessly combines the bustling cosmopolitan life of its capital, Santiago, with the rural tranquility of the Chilean Lake District and remote, sparsely populated villages amidst parched desert land. Island hopping is a popular past-time for visitors here, with large island clusters dusted off the vast, lengthy coastline. Head to Chiloé Island to discover habitations of blue whales, dolphins and Magellanic penguins, or Easter Island to experience life at its most primitive and remote.
