Hoe veilig is het?
4/5
Safest country in South America. Petty theft occurs in Santiago and Valparaíso. Earthquakes are frequent but infrastructure is well-prepared. Patagonia and Atacama are very safe.
Waarvoor moet ik oppassen qua oplichting?
Pickpocketing on Santiago metro during rush hour.
Taxi overcharging from airport — use official transfer services or Uber.
Fake police asking for documents then demanding money — real police carry verifiable ID.
Welke gezondheidsmaatregelen zijn verstandig?
Good healthcare system. Private clinics in Santiago are excellent.
Altitude sickness possible in northern Atacama region.
Earthquakes and tsunamis are real risks — Chile is one of the most seismically active countries on earth. Know evacuation routes in coastal areas. Patagonia weather is extreme and changes rapidly.

Wat moet ik weten over de cultuur?
Wat moet ik doen?
Try Chilean wine — Carmenere is the signature grape.
Visit Valparaíso for street art, bohemian culture, and Pacific coast views.
Explore Torres del Paine — one of the world's great national parks.
Wat moet ik vermijden?
Don't discuss Pinochet casually — it's a divisive and painful topic.
Don't expect things to happen quickly — Chilean pace is relaxed.
Don't skip the empanadas — they're a national treasure.
Hoe werkt fooi geven?
Tip 10% at restaurants (often suggested on the bill). Small tips for hotel staff and drivers.
Wat is de kledingvoorschrift?
Casual and practical. Santiago is more formal than beach towns. Layers essential for Patagonia.
Wat is de religieuze context?
Predominantly Catholic but increasingly secular. Churches welcome visitors.
