Atacama Desert, Chile

With its diverse, striking landscapes, Chile is a country that provides a wealth of outdoor activities, including glacier walks, peaceful boat cruises, horse riding and treks through the unrivaled scenery of the Patagonia region.

One of the best ways to explore Chile is on a self-drive vacation, allowing you to take in your surroundings at your own pace, and our travel guide to self-drive vacations in Chile can help plan your route. A five-hour flight from the mainland takes you to the mysterious Easter Island, where you come face to face with the island's most celebrated residents: the moai statues, whose purpose remains a mystery.
