Things to Do in Santiago
Starting points for your perfect trip
Pre-Columbian Heritage & Living Cultures
The 1807 Royal Customs Palace holds over 5,000 artifacts spanning 10,000 years of indigenous life — Chinchorro mummies from 1900 BC, towering Mapuche chemamüll totems carved from single trees, and Rapa Nui ceremonial figures. The "Chile Before Chile" exhibit traces cultures predating Santiago.
Neruda’s Secret Santiago: La Chascona & Bellavista
Neruda built La Chascona in 1953 as a secret refuge for lover Matilde Urrutia, named for her wild hair. Rooms climb a Bellavista hillside like ship cabins and lighthouses. In the Diego Rivera portrait, Neruda's profile hides in Matilde's hair. Vandalized in the 1973 coup, it hosted his wake days lat
Memory & Resistance: Chile’s Human Rights Story
This free museum documents the Pinochet dictatorship (1973–1990) with unflinching clarity. Exhibits include torture devices from detention centers, letters smuggled from prisoners, and footage of the September 11, 1973 bombing of La Moneda. Over 3,000 were killed or disappeared; 40,000 detained.
Andes Hot Springs & Reservoir Expedition
Two hours east of Santiago, Cajón del Maipo cuts into the Andes to reveal turquoise Embalse El Yeso at 2,500m beneath snowcapped peaks. Continue to Termas Valle de Colina — nine volcanic pools ranging 25–55°C. Andean cats and pumas roam here, and the contrast of steam and mountain air lingers.
Maipo Valley Wine Bicycle Trip
Cycle the "Bordeaux of South America" just 30 minutes from Santiago — from Cousiño Macul, family-owned since 1856, to Concha y Toro's 1883 Casillero del Diablo cellars. The star is Carménère, a Bordeaux grape thought extinct after a vine plague, hiding in Chilean soil for over a century.
Tres Valles: Skiing the Andes Above Santiago
Just 90 minutes from Santiago, Tres Valles combines Valle Nevado, La Parva, and El Colorado into nearly 7,000 acres of skiable terrain at up to 3,670m. Expect dry Andean powder, 80% clear-sky days, heli-skiing into untouched backcountry, and dinner in the capital the same evening.
