A ribbon of land stretching from the Peruvian border at the far north to the very tip of South America, Chile is a land of volcanoes and lakes, barren desert and colourful cosmopolitan cities. Starting in Santiago with the Andes as a backdrop, fly north to Calama and experience the vast expanses of the Atacama — the driest desert in the world. Continue to the snow–capped volcanoes of Chile’s Lake District before heading to the far south to Punta Arenas and the Torres Del Paine National Park, a highlight of any visit and quintessential Patagonia.
