Chile is a land of extremes and staggering beauty.  The longest country in the world, it is bordered on the east by the Andes and on the west by the Pacific Ocean and stretches from the Atacama Desert in the north to Cape Horn in the far south.

Chile holidays with Abercrombie & Kent will bring you closer to the people and places that define this wonderful country.

Many holidays in Chile begin with the most famous of its national parks, Torres del Paine in southern Patagonia (designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve). Vast granite towers plummet to a lavish valley of lakes, waterfalls, glaciers and icebergs, habited by a wonderful variety of wildlife. Spend some time here on your holiday to Chile to appreciate the region's beauty and look for more than 100 species of bird, armadillo, guanaco and, if you are lucky, Chile's own big cat, the puma.

Water and land merge seamlessly together in the majestically beautiful Chilean Lake District - an ideal setting for a holiday in Chile. Snow-capped volcanoes are reflected in the brilliant blue of the lakes, often fed by rivers that provide some of the best fishing in the southern hemisphere. In total contrast, turn your Chile travel north to the Atacama Desert, an adventure playground of geysers, moon valleys and salt lakes where at night the clear skies are littered with thousands of stars.

Santiago is the capital as well as gateway to the ski areas and best beaches. Maipo Valley is just south of here and produces some of the New World's finest wines, a visit here is well worth building in to your Chile holiday.

For a dramatic chapter in your holiday to Chile, visit Easter Island, a tiny fragment of land lying some 2,000 miles off the west coast of Chile. It is best known for its moai, more than 600 huge figures sculpted from volcanic-rock, situated on ahu, gazing out to sea. Nobody knows exactly how, why or when they were put there. The island is one of the most isolated and mysterious places on earth and is a fitting adjunct to the spectacle of Chile.
