Visited Chile for 10 days. Solid experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $75/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 8/10. Exceeded expectations.
AMA.

I'd also recommend downloading WhatsApp before you go. Essential.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.
