A European City

Santiago is a good value for backpackers and a nice break from all the outdoor activities that Chile has to offer. ATMs, restaurants, and clubs are common. Cinemas offer English-language movies and are very cheap.

  • Insider tip:Bellavista offers competitively priced hostels and a laid back, student atmosphere.
