tips
start learning
Due to the low wages in Chile, many workers depend on gratuities. Most restaurants will automatically add on a 10% service charge to your bill but, if the service has been particularly outstanding, there is no harm in leaving a little extra.
anti-malaria tablets
start learning
There is no risk of malaria in Chile. Extra care should be taken to avoid mosquito bites as cases of the Zika virus have been reported. Sleeping under a mosquito net at night is advised along with using a strong repellent containing at least 50% DEET.
vaccinations
start learning
You should seek medical advice from your local health practitioner before travelling to Chile and ensure that you receive all of the appropriate vaccinations (tetanus, diphtheria, polio, typhoid, hepatitis A and B).
food
start learning
Most meals in Chile consist of chicken, beef or seafood, which is served with rice or french fries and sometimes a salad. Specialities include "cazuela de ave" which is a chicken stew with potatoes, rice, onions with peppers and "pastel de choclo".
