I've been thinking a lot about our Chile/Argentina trip, and reading lots of websites, studying reviews on Trip Advisor, and watching a number of YouTube videos of the destinations I was considering. We're going to do a full day trip to Valparaiso, Vina Del Mar and maybe that nude beach (just north of Vina). But that's going to be it for beach excursions! Day-trips to the Andes and interesting Santiago city tours will take precedence. And then also we're going to add a flight down to the Lakes District, where we can see volcanoes, lounge by lakes, take a ferry to Chiloe island, and perhaps see some penguins and other wildlife. When we finish there, we're off to Argentina for 9 days, staying in BA mostly, but perhaps including a day trip out into the countryside and to a winery. We also hope to one of the easy full-day tours to Uruguay, where we can walk around a world heritage city.
*Santiago, 5 nights
highlights - city walking tour, culinary tour, Andes Mountains hike (all day), winery + Val + Vina + nude beach (all day), one day freelance
*Fly to Puerto Montt, 5 nights in region (Lakes district)
highlights - stay in city Puerto Varas, see volcanoes, lakes, waterfalls and tour islands
*Fly to Buenos Aires, 8 nights
highlights - not sure yet, but for sure a day trip to Uruguay, maybe a winery, lots of eating
*Fly back to Santiago for one more full day.
