About Chile:

Chile is a long and narrow country located on the west side of South America.

Just above Chile is Peru and at 1 o'clock is Bolivia. The rest of the Chilean border is with Argentina to the east. Of course, west of Chile is the Atlantic ocean and below Chile is Antarctica.

Chile is narrowly situated between the Andean mountain range and the Pacific Ocean. This combination provides visitors to this beautiful country with the opportunity to experience a myriad of sights and natural wonders.

Politically, Chile is divided in 12 regions, including the Antarctic territory, plus the metropolitan region.

The official language of Chile is Spanish and its currency the Chilean peso. Chile is a pleasant mix of European and indigenous people. The indigenous traditional way of life is still very much alive in many parts of Chile.

As you would expect in a Latin American country, almost 90% of Chileans are Roman Catholic. This in turn has created some fabulous churches and cathedrals that are beautiful today as when they were first built.

Chile is 4,300 kilometers long but amazingly, only 180 kilometers wide! In this narrow country though you will find some of the most breathtaking scenery you will ever see or find in the world!

Surprisingly, Chile has a variety of climatic conditions. From hot and humid to one of the most arid deserts in the world! In fact, the desert is so dry that astronomers from around the world have built giant telescopes in the Chilean desert for its magnificently clear skies.

As you might guess by now, not only does Chile have on the driest locations in the world, but also one of the wettest ones too!

Chile has been described as being like the Sahara in the north, California in the center, an alpine region in the mid-south and like Norway in the deep south.

Some parts of Chile are just simply amazing. Take Easter Island for example or how about Patagonia. What amazing places these two places are. But in addition, Chile also has Tierra del Fuego located at the very bottom of South America at Cape Horn. Other amazing places in Chile include part of Antarctica and the Atacama Desert.

Chile has some of the best telecommunications anywhere, good infrastructure and health services. The people are friendly, there are excellent tourist services and a total absence of poisonous plants or insects. But most important of all, you Chile is simply a destination that is hard to outclass!

Activities:

There is so much to see and do in Chile that it is difficult to describe everything.

I like to suggest to my guests that they get a travel guide book to bring with them on their trip and also for planning before they arrive.

Chile is world famous for its stunning beauty and wilderness opportunities, but now, Chile is also famous for its wine!

So regardless of what you like to do on your vacation, Chile provides a little of everything... from culture and history... to relaxation and adventure.

Visiting national parks, exploring glacial lakes by boat, white water rafting, hiking in Patagonia, kayaking and ballooning are just some of the many activities you can enjoy.

Some prefer to explore the Chilean wine route and smaller towns where indigenous cultures still thrive.

Your guidebook will be of immense help in determining what your plans will be. I will also do what I can to help you also.
