This holiday through Chile's main highlights travels the length of the country, from the high Andean Atacama Desert in the north to the rugged peaks of Patagonia in the south. On the way you visit the bustling, cosmopolitan city of Santiago and the snowcapped volcano strewn landscapes of the Lake District. The suggested accommodation and excursions are carefully chosen by our specialists and can be tailored to you should you have any specific interests or preferences to best showcase what Chile has to offer.
Watch the sunrise over the altiplano near San Pedro de Atacama at the highest geyser field in the world, as huge funnels of natural steam from bubbling geothermal pools are dotted across the horizon. Spectacular sunsets at Valle de la Muerte (Death Valley) fill the evening sky with a kaleidoscope of colour. At Laguna Chaxa, flamingos take flight as the cold night chill takes over.
Admire the Germanic influenced architecture in the Lake District overlooked by towering volcanoes. Venture to remote areas, choose to climb the gentle slopes of Osorno volcano and listen to the thunder of the powerful Petrohué Falls. Further south Torres del Paine National Park with towering jagged peaks and dramatic landscapes makes for a picture perfect end to your Chile holiday. Indulge in the remoteness of the area as the sun reflects from glistening glaciers and Patagonian lamb chars on the asado barbecue.
