How much does it cost to travel in Chile?

October 19, 2013 by Travelbllgr 5 Comments

Chile was the first stop on our trip through South America in March 2013. It was a great introduction to South America, we loved buying delicious steak from the supermarket to cook in our hostel kitchen and we admired the baron landscape of Northern Chile whilst travelling by bus.

Based on two people travelling on a budget, staying in shared hostel rooms, cooking in hostel kitchens and travelling by bus, we spent a 204,839 pesos over 7 days, approx £256 / $410. That works out at £36.50 / $58.50 per day.

    It’s so weird that overnight bus is nearly 4 times more expensive that the accommodation. That’s the opposite to what you can get in Europe or in China. 24h train ride is twice cheaper than a night in a average hotel in China. I’ve never made it to Chile, but it terms of prices it’s not the cheapest place to travel I see.

    Thanks for the breakdown. $58 a day is a very reasonable travel budget! I really want to put Chile’ on my travel wish list!

    It looks like you did quite well and made your money go a long way. I always enjoy Chile but have to be careful though, I’m prone to getting food poisoning there.
