Fodor's Chile: with Easter Island & Patagonia (Travel Guide)

This guide is up to date and easy to digest. It gives all the information one needs on what to see and when museums etc are open. Also the background on the social history and even the politics of Chile is explained simply and with no bias. It is a good, comprehensive, visitors guide that will be invaluable to newcomers to Chile.

Just back from today after using the book extensively. Information was excellent. Easy to read. Easy to rip apart so you don’t have to take the whole book when you go. Just take the parts where you will visit.

Difficult to find references to precise places!

Leaving for Chile shortly and found the book well-organized and helpful. In fact, I like it better than one of the other well-known travel guides of Chile.

A large section of Chile (The BioBio) was left out of this book. This is the area I was most interested in visiting recently, and not a word was printed about the major cities of Concepcion, Chillan, and several others. I haven't checked to see what else was overlooked across the rest of the country. The sections provided contained useful, but sparse information about what there is to see and do. This book could certainly provide much better and more complete information.

it was not as detailed as i had hoped.

Has so much information in it, gives tips on where to stay and things to do, would recommend.

Love Fodor's guides. Recommendations for sightseeing, activities, hotels, restaurants are always spot-on. Like the insider perspective.

Planing a trip to Chile, this was a lot of help.

The guide is dated 2018 so information is up-to-date to 2017, which is pretty good. Content covers all areas of Chile sufficiently. The rest, the details, you can research online yourself.

Very helpful tips on places to see, customs and what to do when there.

Old version

Very good guide book. No colour photos or maps. Pages are all printed in black and orange being the second colour. Great information.
