Sobre Santiago, CL

Rent a Car – Enjoy Santiago!

The capital of Chile, Santiago, has centuries of history in its physical and cultural landscape and is located close to the natural wonders of the Andes. As of the latest census, 40.33 percent of the country’s population lives within the metropolitan area, totaling over 6.5 million people.

A bustling city located between the mountains and the coast, the Greater Santiago Metropolitan Area has excitement and new experiences for foodies, adventurers and history buffs.

Conozca la ciudad

Santiago is home to a rich cultural heritage. Each neighborhood bears its own unique identity, and travelers will find something to fascinate them in each one. The daytime is perfect for visiting galleries, museums or parks - or heading into the hills for an excursion into nature. At night, there are exciting bars, restaurants and clubs to frequent.

Many of the cultural attractions are centered around Santiago’s main square, the Plaza de Armas. From the world-famous Metropolitan Cathedral to the Natural History Museum, the neighborhood offers a variety of ways to connect to ancient and modern cultural life of the city and country.

If you'd rather indulge your artistic side, Bellavista may be the night neighborhood for you. The area was once home to Pablo Neruda, poet laureate of Chile, and his past residence has been converted into a museum. It's just one of several culturally significant destinations in this historically artistic part of the city.

The Central Market, located downtown, is a well-known food shopping destination that's renowned for its fun atmosphere as much as the fresh fish and produce. A committed foodie in Santiago can find a fascinating new place to eat every meal, from upscale restaurants to casual cafes.

At most times of the year, you'll find festivals and celebrations taking place throughout the region. The Independence celebrations, which technically take place Sept. 18 but can go on for days, are just one of the many exciting happenings you can join in on.

Enjoy the Region

Driving beyond the city limits leads to a different set of experiences and sites to see. The breathtaking Andes set the scene for vineyards, ski slopes, beaches and the World Heritage City of Valparaiso, located on the coast.

Lovers of winter sports can spend time on the slopes during local winter, which falls during summer in the Northern Hemisphere. Those with an interest in wine can dedicate a day to tasting some of the best wine in the world while exploring the valleys and rolling hills that these vineyards call home. If the coast is more your thing, you'll love discovering fresh seafood and beachfront vistas all along Chile's coast. The sheer variety of experiences accessible within a car ride guarantees you'll never be wanting for something fun to do.
