The Program

Day 2: Visit of the markets La Vega und Central, walk of the neighbourhood Brasil und visit of the Museo de la Memoria y los Derechos Humanos.

Conclusion and tips

A lot of travels say that Chile is quite expensive for budget travellers but I don’t necessarily share this opinion. However, I did not eat out in restaurants, stayed at a cheap hostel and stuck to my budget.
