Chile has some of the most dramatic scenery in the world and trying to decide where to go is a challenge. Attractions range from the Atacama, the world driest desert, to the snow-capped Andes mountain range, coastal rainforest, glaciers and world-class vineyards. This compact Highlights guide summarizes the country's top spots and helps travelers select the optimum route for an organized tour or when planning a self-drive trip.
It condenses into one guide material not otherwise available from a single source. Tim Burford outlines specialist holidays, hotels, restaurants, top ten souvenirs and how you can give back to the community. Detailed maps include 'the top spots' - six places most favored by tour operators.
Tim Burford spent five years in publishing before starting to write hiking and ecotourism guides, specialising in Latin America and eastern Europe.
