South America:Chile
With its long, slender form reaching from the tropics to rugged Patagonia and the icy southern tip of the continent, Chile presents an incredible menu of landscapes and experiences from which to select. Chile tours offer vast areas of untouched wilderness such as immense ice fields and glaciers, and the great Atacama Desert, driest place on earth. From fantastic moonscapes, geysers, ghost towns, wind-sculpted dunes and flamingo lagoons, Chile invites you to explore. Santiago, set in a beautiful valley surrounded by snowy Andean peaks, is the base for exploring central Chile’s famous wine estates, Pablo Neruda’s romantic port of Valparaiso, and the fashionable resort of Vina del Mar. Nature lovers and adventurers escape to the sparkling lakes and snowcapped volcanoes of the Lake District; the hot springs, glaciers and temperate forests of the Carretera Austral; the surreal granite spires of Torres del Paine in Patagonia; and across the Magellan Strait to the wildlife lands of Tierra del Fuego and Cape Horn. A few even venture 2,300 miles offshore to be riveted by the mysteries of the giant moai of Easter Island.
