Chile’s Cosmopolitan Capital with Soul
As a contemporary and cosmopolitan metropolis, the capital of Chile offers a blend of top-notch museums, fantastic art galleries, trendy restaurants, and exhilarating nightlife.
Far more than just a stopover, Santiago is Chile’s sophisticated and energetic heart - a city where tradition and modernity meet beneath the gaze of the Andes. Whether you're looking to delve into art and history, indulge in fine dining, or explore lively neighbourhoods, Santiago delivers a richly layered city break.
A dynamic fusion of culture, cuisine, and design, Santiago surprises visitors with its creative energy and world-class infrastructure. Explore its thriving arts scene in contemporary galleries and prestigious museums. Enjoy Santiago’s buzzing food culture, from gourmet tasting menus to atmospheric wine bars showcasing the best of Chilean produce. Boutique shops and artisan markets make it a dream for stylish souvenir hunters.
Each of Santiago’s barrios offers a different perspective on the city. In the historic centre, colonial-era buildings line cobbled streets and grand plazas. Nearby, Lastarria charms with bohemian cafés and vintage shops, while leafy Providencia is known for its upmarket boutiques and fine restaurants.
Don’t miss a ride up Cerro San Cristóbal for sweeping views across the skyline to the Andes. Santiago’s central location also makes it perfect for day trips - whether you’re sipping wines in the Central Valley, or discovering the street art and coastal flair of Valparaíso and Viña del Mar.
