Chile & Easter Island – January 2017

We flew to Chile, landing in Santiago then north to Calama where we visited several sites in the Atacama Desert region. We spent three days there before heading to Puerto Varas in the Lakes region of central Chile where we spent another 3 days touring the area. After that we flew to Puenta Arenas and took a bus to Puerto Natales in the Patagonia area. We spent three incredible days touring Torres del Paine National Park and several other spectacular sites in this area. Our last stop was Easter Island – the most remote place on Earth and home to the Rapa Nui people and their famous Moai. The country of Chile is a one of many contrasting landscapes and cultures. We saw it all. Take a few minutes to read our trip report.
