    This Chile honeymoon comes packed with dramatic landscape, exceptional hotels and unforgettable experiences from start to finish.

    Begin with some relaxation in the quaint and colourful, hillside beach town of Valparaiso. Next, you’ll head into the wine region and spend two nights on a pretty boutique hotel amongst the wineries, where you enjoy how terroir influences wine at a tasting.

    Then make the journey to the Easter Island, cast adrift in the Pacific Ocean and populated by remarkable, carved stone Moai statues. Spend a few nights here in a beautiful shoreline hotel with a private balcony and catch a remarkable sunset on the included twilight tour.

    Returning to Santiago, we’ve included a night in a boutique hotel to explore the Chilean capital before flying to the Chilean Lake District for a 7-day self-drive.
