Chile has been named in Lonely Planetâs just-published Best In Travel 2018 book as the No1 country to visit in 2018, followed by South Korea, Portugal and the obscure Djibouti.
Lonely Planetâs picks are based on recommendations from travelers that are culled by an in-house panel of experts who look for âtopicality, novelty and wow-factorâ among places to go.
The book of the worldâs largest travel guide book publisher, also picks out the coastal city of Valparaiso as a big plus point for Chile, with its âart-filled streets, bohemian cafes and romance-inducing promenadesâ.
The country also boasts the wilds of Patagonia in the south and the Atacama desert in the north where âthereâs been a big bang in astrotourism, with new stargazing hotels and geektastic tours to groundbreaking observatoriesâ.
Thanks to new non-stop flights from both London and Melbourne, itâs never been easier to catch a plane, raise a glass of pisco sour and toast the celebration.
