Lakes, deserts, volcanoes and the metropolis of Santiago – Chile has a real box of tricks to offer tourists.
The best time to visit will depend on what you want to do, though. Unless you want to do it all, in which case there are a few things you need to know.
Find out below.
September to November and March to May.
Between September and November the temperature in Santiago hovers around 15℃, give or take. It's a similar story in April. The coldest months are June and July when the mercury sits around 9℃. At this time of year it can get pretty cold in Chilean Patagonia. Thermometers are no strangers to -1℃ and -2℃.
Summer hits the southern hemisphere between November and March, so Chile is no exception. Unfortunately, the high temperatures come with high tourist numbers. Plan your visit either side of this time and you should still benefit from warm weather and just manage to escape the worst crowds and highest hotel prices too.
Best time to visit Chile, weather-wise: November to March is best as it's the summer period. If you're after warm temperatures then book between January and February as you can expect temperatures around 30°C during the day.
Cheapest time to visit Chile: June to August will cost you the least if you're planning on visiting. The wet season hits between May and August as this is the winter. However this is an ideal time to get the snow gear out as it's also the ski season.
