The Rough Guide to Chile (Rough Guide Travel Guides)
The Rough Guide to Chile (Rough Guide Travel Guides) Review
We used the Rough Guide to Chile for planning (and executing) a 2 month journey through this amazing country, including to Easter Island. Without the rough Guide to Chile, we would have never seen the incredible places we did, eaten at the great restaurant, or slept in the best beds. This guide is a must companion for a trip to Chile.
The background and history provided is thorough. Using the simple maps you can quickly identify the general location of sights, but as mentioned by another reviewer, the maps are by no means thorough. That said, this is a guide book. It acts a a guide. Before travelling anywhere you should have a high quality map, and that is not something I expect from any book.
The tips in the Rough Guide to Chile are worth following. We went out of our way to discover little villages in the middle of mountains or deep in forests, never to be disappointed. The people were fantastic, the food was great, and the accommodation was of a very good standard.
Take note of some of the food tips in the book. No-one should go to Chile without eating Pachanga, a Baros Jarpa, a Baros Lucos, or a Completo. I wish we could take our book and go right on back.
Don’t leave this on the shelf if you are heading to Chile!
