- Chile ↗Check entry rules for your passport with Chile's National Migration Service or a Chilean consulate; keep the entry slip or digital record you receive.
- Chile ↗Torres del Paine: campsites and refugios on the W and O treks must be booked in advance, and the park requires an entry ticket bought ahead; check the official park (CONAF) channels.
- Chile ↗Chile strictly controls food imports: declare fruit, meat, dairy, seeds and honey on arrival, or throw them away before customs.
- Santiago and central Chile ↗Valparaíso's hills are steep and quiet after dark: plan the return bus or car before dark.
- Santiago ↗Demonstrations occur around Plaza Baquedano and the centre, and can close Metro stations and streets: check the news that morning and steer clear of large crowds.
- Santiago ↗Pickpocketing is common in the Metro, on the funicular and at Mercado Central: use a front pocket or a zipped bag, and do not leave a phone on a café table.
