Chile is a land of extraordinary beauty and contrast, snaking down from the driest desert in the world to vast frozen glaciers in the south, passing via volcanoes, snow-capped mountains, vivid lakes and lush vineyards.
This tour shows you the best of this country, from the chic capital of Santiago with its snow-capped backdrop and excellent vineyards; to the lovely adobe town of San Pedro in the Atacama desert, the driest in the world; down to beautiful Puerto Varas in the lake district, where vivid blue lakes reflect smoking volcanoes and snow-capped mountains; to end in the glacial wonderland of Torres del Paine.
