What better way to wrap up the day than to enjoy a relaxing dinner with the magical backdrop of the glittering Santiago skyline?
Day 3 – Nature's paradise
On our final day, awaken your adventurer's spirit! Take an exciting journey to Río de los Ciervos, a beautiful nature reserve renowned for its scenic landscapes. Go exploring the green trails, watch the deer grazing, or perhaps bring out your inner angler and try your hand at fishing.
