Santiago is one of those metropolitan joys where the more you look, the more you find. Funky cafes and dance clubs dot Bellavista, Forest Park art collections range from pre-Columbian to contemporary, and architecture runs the gamut from the 16th-century San Francisco Church to mirrored office towers. Shop with the locals at Mall Panora¡mico and give your palate meals to remember with hearty Chilean fare.

High Mountain Experience

climbing and trekking trips around Santiago Chile.

Reviewed By Satyabrata

I am an international mountain guide with over 40 years of climbing around the world and i have worked with some of the finest mountain guides and agencies in the world and I can say that Guillermo and his team is one of the best. I brought my member to climb Ojos del Salado as pre Everest and we successfully climbed the peak all thanks to Guillermo and Alvaro. It was like a family trip and every day was fun. We did 14 days itinerary and it was perfect for acclimatization. The food was simply amazing with wide variation in veg and non veg options. Guillermo works from the heart and is a perfect mountain man. If you are planning for any outdoor adventure in Chile then look no more. This is it. Guillermo and his team.

It has several attractions in its 1784 acres. Central Park is only 842 acres by comparison. Some of its most important attractions are: the sanctuary and balcony of the Virgin of the Immaculate Conception; The National Zoo of Chile, where you can get dazzled with the different species of animals; the historic funicular railway and the recently inaugurated cable way.

We decided to walk from our hotel to this park on Sunday morning. They close some streets till like 2 pm, so people can bike ride, run, walk, and roller blade. We walked asking the street with everyone on the way to the park. Great views and art.

......from the concrete and asphalt. While on one of our self-guided tours, we discovered this magnificent park with it's long pathways of crushed gravel. Our tired and sore feet appreciated a break from the hard surfaces.
