This place has many different adventures that can be interesting for travelers: it is home of the driest desert in the world as well as millennial glaciers in the southernmost part of the planet. It counts many enchanted forests, incredible lakes located at the foot of many volcanoes and wild rivers flowing throughout the whole country. Infinite legends and mysteries populate the beautiful Easter Island, so secluded and remote and yet so alive, especially in February when the local festival Tapati takes place. The locals will engage with you in many traditional activities such as body painting and delicious culinary experiences which should not be missed!. Great cuisine and winemaking traditions are important in Chile too. And last but surely not least, is the lovely city of Santiago: modern, dynamic and organized… while still being a great place for relaxing thanks to its many parks and recreational areas.
Chilean people are warm and welcoming and the getting in touch with them is not difficult. On the other hand, people’s kindness and hospitality is something that surprises many visitors.
A fun fact about Chile: you can experience both summer and winter in the same day! During the southern winter, you can try out some of the best ski slopes in South America in the massive Andean mountains. Do it early in the morning and then hit the road: it’s only a two-hour road journey from the mountains to the ocean, where you can enjoy a delicious seafood dinner on the coast, with the breeze and atmosphere or warm summer nights!

What we stand for

Don't just travel the world, live it.

This region is among the driest spots on the earth, especially in the northern part of Atacama, where none of the meteorological stations has ever recorded a drop of rain since the day they were placed. One might think of this region as inhospitable and dramatic, but in fact, if visited during spring, it could look like a real triumph of colours and shapes because of the thousand cacti blossoms and flowers that may pop up in the whole desert. This is a true wonder that only happens for a couple of days and not even every year, but only when the meteorological phenomenon called "El Niño" hits Chile, having a strong impact on the country’s rainy season, and therefore on the Atacama Desert. The Atacama region is mostly populated by miners that are active in the extraction of gold, copper and iron, while most of the other people that are to encounter here are curious tourists that leave speechless and stunned by this amazing part of the planet.
