General Information
Chile it is not a cheap country, if you really press for a extreme low cost you will get what you pay for, a bad service. The cost of living in Chile it is high, if you want a good service, you must to pay more. Furthermore, changes in both rates of exchange and fuel, affects directly the costs of services.

Last year the rate of exchange fluctuated between $420 a $550 chilean pesos per american dollar, that means that your price in dollars can be much higher even if in chilean pesos do not changes at all. Normally foreign currency devaluates between november and march; to avoid any unexpected surprise we suggest to confirm and pay in advance the services.


Tips

- Wineries: Most of the wineries of Casablanca Valley are easily accessible from Ruta 68 (the main highway that connects Santiago with Valparaíso). From Santiago Veramonte; direction to Santiago Indomita and Viña Mar. More details about winetours in Chile in winetours.cl.

- Arriving two days in advance. If you like, you can stay in Santiago one night. We suggest the second night in the coast Valparaiso or Viña del Mar, never farther than 20 minutes from the Cruise Terminal.
