From the unforgiving Atacama Desert to Tierra del Fuego

An authentic country of raw and wild nature, Chile amazes any traveller who ventures there. Chile encompasses astonishing geological and biological diversity: the Atacama Desert to the north of Chile, one of the most arid in the world; the lakes, forests, and volcanoes with snow-capped peaks of the central region; or the vast steppes, fjords, and glaciers of the ends of the earth in Patagonia. The cities of Santiago and Valparaiso will charm travellers with urban desires. Those who seek the unknown and the mysterious will go to the mystical Easter Island. As for the Epicureans, they won't be able to resist a delicious glass of Chilean wine.
