The 50 best things to do with kids in Santiago

Cool place with a nice view. Probably a must go if you’re visiting Santiago. Be aware that it’s a LOT of stairs to climb.

Cerro Santa Lucía is a beautiful historic hill in the heart of Santiago, Chile. It offers stunning city views, peaceful gardens, and charming old architecture. A perfect spot for a relaxing walk, photography, or enjoying sunset moments. A must-visit for travelers exploring Santiago.

Beautiful hill in the heart of Santiago with gardens, fountains, and historic architecture. The climb is not too difficult and rewards you with amazing panoramic views of the city and the Andes. A perfect spot for a short walk, photography, or just relaxing in nature while still being in the city center.

A lovely park with a great view of the city - very easy 15 minute maximum stroll up to the top, which can get busy, but feels very safe. Lovely places to relax in the shade or sun, with small cafes and snacks shops dotted along the paths.

Great spot to visit. Easy climb up to top for lovely views.

Such a beautiful view over the city. Short walk up. Many places to sit and rest on the way up. Free entrance.

This place offers beutiful views of the whole city and the mountains around it. It’s easy to walk up and there are two platforms to enjoy

Fantastic! Built in 2015, and currently the tallest building in South America, I would say it’s well-worth it for the views! It’s 20,000 CLP for adults, and it’s one of the highlights of Santiago. A great place to admire the view, and capture some great photos! There’s also a nice bar/restaurant that can be good (otherwise, there are more food options in the main mall). There are bathrooms and a gift store, too. Can definitely recommend! By yourself, a date, or with your family and friends!!

A must-visit in Santiago! Check the weather forecast so you can really enjoy it and see the Andes. The staff is super friendly and helpful. On both floors of the viewpoint, there are decorated spots perfect for taking photos to post. Amazing 360º view of the city!

Gorgeous city views. One of a kind. They have a second floor where you feel the air from outside cause it's open roof but the windows are all like 40 feet tall, so you technically do feel like you're still indoors.

Sky Costanera is a must-visit landmark in Santiago. This impressive skyscraper features an observation deck at the very top, offering breathtaking 360° views of the city and the majestic Andes mountains. The experience is unforgettable, especially on clear days when the Cordillera de Los Andes looks spectacular in the background. It’s one of the best ways to truly appreciate the scale and beauty of Santiago.

Wow! An absolute must try! $20 USD to get to the top of the tower. It has two levels for viewing. One of them is open roof. There is also a restaurant that has amazing food and equally amazing prices. Try to get up there before sunset. As the sun sets and night moves in, the views continue to change and they just keep getting better. 10/10!

What a view and this part of town is a contrast to the older quarter of Santiago. The place is well run, no issues getting in and out. Everything was explained to us by an English speaking guide. Well organized. Loved the view from the top.

Sky Costanera was an impressive complex, not only the tallest building in Latin America but also home to Santiago’s largest mall. On our first visit we headed straight for the observation deck after arriving by Uber. We found the ticket booth one floor below street level after asking a security guard. I paid about forty US dollars for two tickets, which felt reasonable compared to prices in the US or the UK. The line for the elevator was longer than the ride itself. The lift moved so quickly that we reached the lower observation floor in under a minute. To reach the upper platform we simply took the escalator after taking pictures around the lower level. We arrived on a Monday around sunset and found it very crowded, but I suspect weekends would be even busier. The sun was already dipping when we got there, and in hindsight, arriving thirty minutes earlier would have given us more daylight for our photos. Staying through sunset, however, allowed us to capture a wide range of lighting effects, and once darkness fell, the crowds dispersed almost immediately. A few days later, we returned by Uber again to explore the mall portion. Spread over five well-laid out levels, we managed to see most of the stores in about three hours, with breaks for lunch and coffee. We ate at Kali and Dipsy, an American style hamburger joint that exceeded our expectations. My fiancée loved her burger so much that she wanted to go back on another day to eat there again. About an hour after lunch, we stopped at Juan Valdez for a strong coffee and shared a rather dry brownie, which the coffee easily made up for. After we finally finished shopping, we headed down to the underground level to catch a taxi back to our hotel. We used Uber for both trips but found departures chaotic with the crush of traffic surrounding the complex. On both visits we opted to take a taxi from the parking garage beneath the complex. Just follow the signage on the first level to the garage entrance, take a number, and wait for a taxi to arrive. Overall, we were delighted with both visits to Sky Costanera and would recommend it to anyone visiting Santiago.

A beautiful park with lots of greenery and a peaceful atmosphere. It’s well-maintained, including the toilets, and there are plenty of places to sit and relax. It’s a great spot for a picnic or just to chill. There’s even a designated area for dogs to play, which is a nice touch. However, the roads and the dog park are incredibly dusty. My dog ended up looking like a piece of mud after playing there! I feel like there could be a better solution than having so much dust on the paths—it really takes away from the experience. Overall, it’s a lovely park, but the dusty roads…. Omg 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈

It is a very large and well-maintained park. It is usually very busy on weekends. It is a perfect place to take a walk or to relax away from the noise of the city. There is a small lake in it And the lake has swans and fish that you can feed. A perfect place to relax.

Such a pretty and peaceful park with the most gorgeous swans!

A huge park, well maintained, plenty of parking, mini food truck where you can eat, get soda, ice cream, coffee, cakes, even hamburgers for dogs, a lagoon with huge fish, a nice place to go for a walk

Gorgeous. Under construction in some places, but a beautiful park :)

A nice park in the wealthiest neighborhood of Santiato

Easily a wonderful park that Santiago should be proud to have. This is as good or better than most parks we have in the US. There are multiple playgrounds, a body weight fitness park, hike and bike trails, a pond, open fields, and a fantastic view of the skyline above it all. You could easily spend hours here e joying the day. There are a fair amount of trees so shade can be found. Restrooms are available for free near the southern part of the park. It's very pet and kid friendly.

Visited Chile last year. A beautiful and peaceful place with amazing views of Santiago. I could even see in the distance, the snow on a part of the Andes mountain range. It was great.

The 22-meter statue on San Cristóbal Hill, dedicated to the Immaculate Conception, was designed by Italian sculptors Luigi Poletti and Giuseppe Obici, and was constructed by the French foundry Val D'Osne. Although it's cloudy day, tourists still crowded. The cable car took us to a platform where there are lots of souvenir stores , food stalls, then taking about 100 steps to the top. I wish I had enough time to climb up all the way to the top myself. The overview was excellent even in a cloudy day.

Takes around 40 minutes to walk up the hill, no entrance fee. Very beautiful view of Santiago, especially during sunset. It is possible to take the cable car too, if you don't want to walk up or down.

I went for a 7 AM run and was treated to an incredible sunrise view-it’s the perfect way to start the day. The trail was already a bit busy at that hour, but it’s very walkable and enjoyable for runners and hikers alike. The views are stunning, and I’d say the trail is a moderate effort, challenging enough to feel accomplished but still accessible for most. Best of all, it’s free to explore! Definitely worth checking out if you’re in Santiago.

Recoleta is a lively and diverse district of Santiago, known for its mix of culture, history, and everyday local life. It’s famous for the Patronato neighborhood, where you’ll find bustling markets, street food, and affordable shopping, reflecting the area’s strong immigrant influence. Recoleta is also home to the Cementerio General, one of the largest cemeteries in Latin America, full of history and impressive mausoleums. Close to central Santiago, it’s an interesting place to explore if you want to see a more authentic side of the city beyond the tourist areas. It has magnificent views to the city.

We rode the Funicular up and had great views. Had a snack and did the short hike up to the statue. The breeze was nice and the shade felt so good on a hot day. We decided to not take the funicular down and instead walked down thinking it would be a quick and easy way down and get our legs moving. It was about 2-2.5km walk down the road as we couldn’t find a trail to take us straight down and had to follow the road. We should have bought the round-trip funicular ticket. Oh well, it was a nice day so we made it safely, just a bit hot. Really great views from the top. Viva Santiago!

Lovely spot definitely visit while you’re in Santiago. A nice walk up the hill in about 30 minutes

La Chascona was Pablo Neruda’s house in Santiago. Is located in Bellavista, few steps from the funicular. The entrance fee is CLP 9,500 (about $10 USD), credit cards accepted. The audio guide is essential to fully appreciate the house, at the end of the tour you need to return it. The firsr thing to do is view the short documentary in the video room. Inside the house, you’ll find an eclectic mix of art, maritime decor, and personal items. For people with mobility issues, Keep in mind, the house has stairs. La Chascona offers an interesting look into Neruda’s life and personality. The audio guide and documentary help you understand the experience better, so take your time and appreciate this part of Chilean history.

La Chascona offers a wonderful immersive experience into Pablo Neruda’s life. It’s well-organized, well-maintained, and easy to follow. The full visit takes about 1–2 hours, no more. Please note that photos are not allowed inside the house.

Great museum to visit while in Santiago, very near to the funicular so it's a good activity to pair with that. I don't usually use the museum audio guides anywhere I go but this was really informative and helpful so I recommend it.

It was very nice to be able to visit one of the homes of such a reknowned poet. Entrance was less than $10 per person and an interesting experience. Cost includes a very useful audioguide. The house was quaint and peculiar. There was a small room with a 10 or so minute video that described some of Neruda's back story. The house was broken up into three different structures connected through outdoor stairs, gardens, and other various foliage. It was interesting to see actual poems and writings of Neruda's with edits, etc. The houses were apportioned very nicely with artwork, etc. It also included a beautiful painting by Diego Rivera. The store at the end also had some beautiful artwork. Overall, it was a nice way to spend 30 to 60 minutes.

A very nice house museum. If you are into peeking into amazing peoples houses or Neruda in general this is a must. An audio tour device is available and is included in the price. The house is densely packed with parts of Neruda’s past and life. Like most places it is closed on Mondays.

Beautiful house, and the audio guide really helps. You can't take photos inside, only in the gardens, and you can buy Pablo nerudas works if you want after the tour. Very chill, no guide, you go through at your own pace.

La Chascona is a house in the Barrio Bellavista of Santiago, Chile, which was owned by Chilean poet Pablo Neruda. La Chascona reflects Neruda's quirky style, in particular his love of the sea, and is now a popular destination for tourists

There are some attractions missing, but it's mostly because it's about to move somewhere bigger, still the attractions remaining are good and safe, some still remain since the very beginning. There's a zone for kids and at the entrance of every attraction are instructions and guidelines related to minimum height, warning about leaving their belongings in a locker or a safe place before getting inside due to some attractions have very strong and sudden turns and twists to lose objects. Overall, it is a great place to enjoy with a group and lose the fear, or at least try. Careful, things are expensive inside. But service got better over the years.

Very fun rides with lots to do. The longest time in a line was under 20 minutes. Some of the rides seem to be a bit dated and the infrastructure is starting to show its age. Overall a great experience and would recommend.

A magical place where you can spend the whole day with your family. Park tickets can be reserved online or purchased at the ticket office. There seem to be a lot of people at the entrance to the park, but inside there is a lot of space and there is enough space for everyone. Riding on absolutely all attractions is included in the entrance ticket price. Therefore, after entering the park, you can ride any attraction as many times as you like. Inside the park there is a children's area and special lockers for things.

Reasonable price for what you get, we were there on a weekend and it felt a bit packed, lots of lines.

Very fun especially for kids. Lots of rides and reasonable prices. You may find they are sold out on line but you can go and buy tickets at their box office. Food is kind of expensive and limited choice. I would recommend for a day out.

Entertainment machines Park (no English translator available). Available parking, Grosery stands, drinks stands, presents and souvenirs outside Park. Labour time 12.00 to 19.00 weekend and labours days. Go to webpage to buy ticket and make a reservation. Also, buy tickets onsite.

Poor man‘s Disneyland - in a good way. The screams of joyful terror coming from the rides are just as loud, the waiting lines much shorter and the admission fee costs even less than a tenth of the big American originals. (Around 20 USD per adult, kids half price, January 2024) They offer rides for all ages, from gentle carousels to terrifying roller coasters. Everything is a little smaller and - of course - lacking all the lore from known comics and movies, but the core amusement park business is the same. They do not want you to take food inside and might check your bags. Bringing water is okay. There are a lot of mostly greasy options to eat inside, not cheap, but not as absurdly overpriced as in the big US parks. Note: online booking, which is even cheaper, only works for Chilean nationals.

Beautiful park for kids. Lota of activities to do. A lot of shade from great old trees. Weel kept and friendly staff. Water spheres work from 14.00 till 19.00. Library and cable car (funicular) work from 11.00 till 19.00 Toilets are impecably clean (just need to grab toilet paper before going in. Thetr is only at the entrance of the bathroom area, not in each stall). 100% recommended!

Great place to bring the kids. Most games are for small children and toddlers but you can find a few for older kids (up to 15!!!) Perfectly clean toilets and a very safe place. We had a wonderful day and we will be going back here soon!

It's an amazing playground/park for the little ones and the whole family. Just remember to bring extra clothes for the kids and they might get soaked in the water area

If you are in Santiago, don’t miss this park. What an absolute gem! Great spot for children of all ages.

Beautiful, it's recommended to go on the afternoon to watch the sunset and the comtemplate Santiago at night.

Well equipped, good place to take kids.

Pretty nice park in line with most other reviews but not worth driving across town for. On the day I was here (Friday) all the major attractions were closed: the library, the water spheres and the funicular. The latter two are only open on the weekends, but thr library was just a one-off closure it seems.

It was on January 2nd that I went there with my daughter aged 4. We had spent 6 hours there with a lot of fun, no wait for each attractions which is zero stress. We had been another KidZania in Tokyo once, it was crowded with people on Friday afternoon, and needed to make appointment for each attractions. After all we spent there for six hours,and were able to do 3 or 4 jobs for our kid. So comparing to both experience in different countries, KidZania in Chile is my highly recommended. Great staff, fabulous experience for kids.

It's an amazing place for the kids to learn about jobs and money. The facility it's incredible. This was our second visit and it's a shame that the instructors don't speak any English

Amazing experience. My son loved it. Organized, not long lines... Worth the visit. There are so many things to do. Impossible to do it all in one visit. Only down part, few restrooms and not too clean.

Money grab for visitors. Prices have increased dramatically... parents and older kids pay full price to just watch. Kids enjoyed it more years ago. Won't be back, staff was not friendly.

Great place to leave your kid, must do if you want to have no children for a hour or two

OMG people with children listen to me, you must but must take your children's there they will love it!! And parent as well.. you need a whole day to try all the different professions. .this place is spectacular

It's a very fun place, but there's not much to do if your children are under four years old. Even better if they already read and write

The government seat of power, worth visiting. There is a cultural center right below the ground level, a pleasant surprise for tourists and locals alike.

Palacio de La Moneda is a majestic landmark in Santiago, Chile, serving as the presidential palace. Its neoclassical architecture and cultural significance make it a must-see. Visitors can enjoy guided tours, nearby museums, and the impressive changing of the guard ceremony.

Super fun tourist spot, be sure to go on a morning when they change the guard!

Saw the changing of the guards today. It’s every second day, 10am and goes for 30mins. The crowd around the perimeter was only one deep, it would be harder to see anything if it was busier.

Watched the change of guard at the palace today. Quite impressive.

So fun watching the changing of the guard. It’s on at 10 on odd days in months with an odd amount of days, and even dates on others.

Hoped to be able to tour the inside, but they had pretty tight security around the building and not allowing tourists to even go inside of the perimeter fence that was set up. Took a few pictures from the memorial plaza/park area adjacent to the palace. This building functions as a government/state building and houses many offices and meeting rooms for high ranking government officials in the Chilean government. A nice display and many flags and memorials to past leadership are also found on the ground and around the area. This is one of the key buildings you'll find on many of the Chilean souvenirs. It's a significant historical landmark.

Visiting the monument at the top of the highest hill is one of the many worthwhile spots in Parque Forestal. It is possible to reach it on foot, but due to the heat that day, we took an Uber to the monument’s entrance. From there, a good number of steps lead up to the impressive structure—an architectural achievement with a rich history and a great view over Mendoza. However, the now-grown trees somewhat obstruct the panoramic view of the city. We walked all the way down towards the Ecopark, which was a nice descent. If using Uber, it’s helpful to

Lovely easy hike, recommend if you here on the weekend. But don't drive, parking was crazy.

Beautiful building and cupula. I was, however disappointed with the current exhibitions. Perhaps it was me, I just could appreciate nor understand what was displayed. Sundays are free, so no big loss for me;)

Free public park to walk around. A small pond with swans. Can see the tallest (62 stories) building in entire South America. Nice to see couple dog houses for the stray dogs in the area.

We stayed in a hotel adjacent to this parque. It always seems to have plenty of locals enjoying the walks and the grassy places to lie down for a nap. On a Saturday there was continuous free entertainment for children. There are plenty of benches for sitting and dogs are welcome.

Next to the Bellas Artes museum, it is a great place to take a walk, ride a bike, or just stay a moment for relaxing in a place full of trees, very calm, and next of important central neighborhoods

I loved it! This park is for you relax and enjoy the weather. Many things to look at... you can come here and read a book, have lunch with the friends, run, walk or sociolize with new faces. Its green, its nice and clean. Lots of college students come here to read or hang out after school.

The Santiago Metropolitan Park, also known as Parquemet, is widely regarded as one of the most impressive and largest urban parks in Latin America, offering stunning views and a variety of attractions. It is situated in Santiago, Chile, covering an expansive area that includes six hills, with Cerro San Cristóbal being the most popular one. I would like to highlight its beauty, well-maintained facilities, and the impressive panoramic views of Santiago and the surrounding Andes Mountains. The park offers a great nature escape within the city, providing outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and sightseeing , and features numerous attractions such as a zoo, Japanese Garden, and the Sanctuary of the Immaculate Conception. Visitors constantly remark on the park's size, beauty, and the variety of attractions that make it a must-visit destination in Santiago. I recommend arriving early, especially on weekends, for maximum enjoyment and to avoid crowds. Staying close to the cable car stations is advised due to the extensive size of the park, and bringing water and snacks is essential since amenities are spread out.

A great green area in the big city! So many outdoor activities to do there! I reached the main point of virgen María by cable car and then got back walking! Amazing views from the mountains and the city! It is a big big park, so I might need more days to go to Japanese garden and other trail tracks!

Amazing Park. We stopped here as our layover at SCL was about 8 hours and it was enough time to come here for a quick visit. The rides up and down on the funicular and gondolas are fun for the kids and they have a lot of activities and food to keep the family entertained. Highly recommended if you have a short time in Santiago.

It lacks better signaling of where to go for the fonicular after getting off the teleferico. They should paint the lunes on the floor as mayother place do this to help the tourists. Also, they need to trim off a lot of bushes because as you go down on the fonicular, the view of the city is obstructed by these large trees and foliage.

Very nice, fun to go up the funicular.

Wonderfull sunset view from the top of the park. Worth a visit for this beautiful view of the landscape. It was quite heavily visited in the evening as many wanted to see the view. Do not miss the statue of Saint Mary.

A great park in the city. We loved the sweet Japanese garden.

This is a massive, beautiful park with several museums around it. There are lots of shaded areas and benches.

This is a terrific large multipurpose urban park that has something of interest for all ages and activity levels. The park has within its boundaries several museums including The Museum of Natural History, Museum of Contemporary Art and Museum of Science and Technology. These are all worth a visit to those that enjoy cultural and educational opportunities. The park has several playgrounds for children and playing fields for sports such as baseball. Within the park is a lagoon where one can rent paddle boats. There are numerous trails for walking, jogging or just sitting on one of the many park benches and enjoying the tranquility the park offers. It is a great place to walk your dog and watch the dogs interact with each other. The park is clean and well maintained by the city and there are public restrooms available to use for a nominal fee. All in all this is a great place to visit for tourists and locals alike.

This park seems to have everything, it's home to four museums with several other just outside the park. It is a Big Park with a small Boating Lake, an Athletics Track, Tennis Courts, a Swimming Pool. Lots of trees and places to sit in the shade. Nice place for walking or jogging. It was very quiet when I visited during a week day, daytime. I found it reassuring that the police patrol this park on motorcycles, perhaps after some incidents of robbery, but I felt quite safe.

4 stars only because it's a very large park with lots of trees, a nice pond where you can rent a paddle boat and still some museums to visit. As another review mentions it looks to be in decline as a few of the large old buildings that look abandoned have been defaced by graffiti.

Amazing city park that offers up all the necessities. From a large amphitheater with street artists singing and dancing for tips, to hundreds of street vendors selling delicious snacks and treats while others sell toys and trinkets. There's a small pond that allows paddle boats and lots of empty space to walk around enjoy the greenery and get away from the concrete jungle outside. Multiple fantastic museums located within the park also make it a great spot to spend some time.

Nice park with small lake. There is train park that is very good and is not much to go in. The museum is free and very interesting.

Nice place with a lot too see and seems to have a nice pool. Didn't go. A couple of museums and in general a nice "clean" park.

Estación Central is add lways bustling with activity but don't bring expensive c as cameras here to take photos... There are too many thieves looking for an opportunity to pickpocket or mug people. Do bring good w as well liking shoes, some spending money, and weat sunscreen. Lots to see and do... so enjoy the history of Estación Central and surrounding area.

Great cathedral by design and significance in Santiago! We visited during a mass service, so it was very solemn 🙏🙏

The Metropolitan Cathedral of Santiago, located on Plaza de Armas, is the city’s most iconic church and the seat of the Catholic Archdiocese of Chile. Built in the 18th century in a neoclassical style, it impresses with its grand façade, ornate interior, and peaceful atmosphere. A must-visit landmark in Santiago’s historic center, perfect for history, culture, and architecture lovers.

A magnificent cathedral. So much detail and totally worth the visit. It's amazing how they built this giant building for Santiago or Saint James in English. The place outside the cathedral is also a nice place to walkabout and take in the sights.

Free to enter and not exceptionally busy. Not the most spectacular church I’ve been in, and no English placard or caption translations (even via the QR code). In and out in 10.

Pretty cathedral in the city center of Santiago. Free entrance.

This is a free Cathedral to visit and it's a very pretty one. You'll likely find a couple of hundred people inside praying or sitting while enjoying the cooler air the church offers. The artwork and detailing inside is gorgeous. There are a couple of side chapels that are quieter and better for prayer if that's why you're visiting. Otherwise be respectful as this is a popular place to worship.

It is free to enter the church. It is so beautiful and many travelers visit to take remarkable photos. In the church, there are many statues, artifacts and relics. I recommend anyone looking for a beautiful place to visit in Santiago to stop by this lovely church.

This is one of the most powerful museums I’ve ever been to. It’s incredibly well-curated and gives a deep look into Chile’s dictatorship history. Heavy but important. A must if you’re visiting Santiago.

It’s an interesting overview of the Pinochet dictatorship period in Chile, a must see to understand more about the history of this country. The visit is also free and there’s a cute coffee shop at the entrance.

Nice museum with beautiful architecture. Museum about human rights. Immersive experience about 1973 military coup against the president who try to turn country in to communism.

I expected more... Displays of Chilean history, but without any context:( You need to know the history (or Google it) to understand fully. Things get better with display of 1988 referendum.... That should be the way for 1973 explanations...!!!

Great museum with the entrance from the metro station. What we see today in the world is history repeating itself. With dictators that run some of the countries. Would appreciate it if they had more labels in English. It's free to enter, donations for the commentary in English.

A wonderful experience. Very educational. There is a free app and audio guide in English BUT I had limited connectivity in the museum so recommend searching for the MMDH app in your App Store and listening when you have Wi-Fi

A must visit if you have the time when in Santiago. Free to enter - captures a significant part of Chilean Hx.

What an absolutely beautiful museum with an intense and comprehensive collection on display. The curators have been very thoughtful in preparing the collection and it is complemented perfectly for tourists with all descriptions in English. I loved it so much, I had to buy a book on 14,000 years of Chilean history to take home with me

This is the best place to learn and understand Chilean history and roots of their culture. Most artifacts are made of clay, some of them are very beautiful and artistic even like modern artifacts. It's interesting to learn that they have warrior level as social status at some point in the history.

The entrance is expensive for a museum, CP12000 for an adult. Could do with more lighting as it is hard to read the labels for the displays. That said, it houses a great collection of artifects and in good condition.

Fantastic museum. Not too big. Has explanations in English. Start in basement. Need to pay to put backpack in locker so have change. Bring your reading glasses if you have trouble reading small print. The basement exhibit is pretty dark!

Hi my name is Daniela, this musuem is breathtaking. If you are in Santiago, this is a MUST!

I loved this place and spent a couple of hours here. Incredible artifacts and history information provided, with translations in English as well. Although the entrance price is expensive at slightly less than £10, it’s so worth it. Photos allowed and I took a million. Not crowded.

Such lovely historic building and lovely piece of art that has been done by our ancestors ages ago. Rich in culture and historical facts about aboriginal communities

This is a fabulous well organized and well maintained museum showcasing the wonderful biodiversity of Chile. Owing to its unique geography Chile has several climatic and environmentally distinct regions each with its own separate ecosystem. This museum proves to succinctly describe the natural history of each region with eye catching displays including geographical maps, plant and animal exhibits, palaeontology remains and anthropological artifacts. The museum has free admission and is located in the Quinta Normal Park system that has other fascinating museums and attractions within its confines. Please be aware that with a few exceptions the written text to the museum's exhibits are solely in Spanish. The museum's restrooms were clean and well maintained. This museum and the surrounding park are well worth a visit when in Santiago.

Amazing museum with a spectacular display of a whale skeleton. Lots of exhibits of animals pertaining to Chile. Great place to bring children and it’s free admission for all ages. It’s located inside the park and close to the metro.

Beautifully presented museum of natural history, with lots of displays and information. It is located within the gardens which took me a second to figure out.

AMAZING, It seemed a bit small for me, but it was very interesting, it has a skeleton of a huge whale, everyone should see it. Awesome descriptions of animals and its habits. Awesome collection.

It is a beautiful museum. Very interesting and rich exhibitions. But, it would be very nice if there was any English text, even a little bit, as a lot of foreigners visit it. Also, some refreshment of the museum seems to be a good idea, as well as creation of a gift shop.

A big museum in the inner part of the big park not far from city center! The building looks so grand like a palace. The exhibition hall is tremendous to acoommodate a lot of big stuff! The route for visitors is clear. The details of Chile's climate and natural history are well displayed along the passage. One can really learn a lot about the country's natural environment! Yet the captions and instructions are all in spanish without English translation, which might be quite hard for international visitors. Nonetheless, it is very snug to walk inside and enjoy watching the treasure preserved!

The museum of Natural History in Santiago, Chile is one of the best museums I have visited. It located in Parque de Quinta. You can take a metro just outside the park. The entry is free for everybody. When we visited they had huge Dinosaurs skeletons on display. It covers each & every geographic area of Chile giving all historical details. In the same park you have the railway museum showcasing old steam engines locomotive. You have to pay 900 pesos as entrance fees for railway museum. The kids would love to spend time in park's water sprinkler pool on warm afternoons. Overall a very good place to visit with family or individual.

Visiting from the U.S., our first trip to Buin Zoo was absolutely incredible! We were captivated by the detailed representations of different continents and impressed by the friendly staff. My daughters were thrilled to see so many capybaras, their favorite animal, and we all adored the red panda. While it's a bit of a drive from the city, it was definitely worth every minute!

It is a good zoo but I found price to be too expensive. There are many children, places to eat and drink, everything is organized well. Many animals are there and th visibility is good.

Was pretty good, the weather was so good, and is wonderful, I full recommend for kids, there are so many animals, birds and so many places to stop when you're so tired, there are so many restaurants ( fast food) to eat. There are souvenir's shops and there are an act with marines animals, all was ok and so good.

Excellent zoo in Santiago, the place was very clean and beautiful, it's not the largest zoo I have been but I really enjoyed my tour despite its size it has a great variety of animals but I am concerned about the little space that the animals have. I really enjoyed the marine show at the zoo, it was very informative and entertaining. I loved it !!

Beatiful place with great access. Mostly wheelchair friendly but can turn quite difficult in some parts. The animals are well taken care of and looked happy and the staff is very nice and helpfull. Its has its own parking lot.

Byin Zoo is one of the best parks that you can visit! Staff super friendly! And the scenery and animals are awesome, amazingly well done. The animal's habitats are carefully maintained. The park it is clean and you will have multiple spots for beverage and get something to eat. Just save your time and money and avoid visiting Hakuna Matata restaurant, it is a waste of money, only good thing there is the air conditioning 😉 the park management must work to improve that restaurant, before was really good.

Good selection of animals: lions, jaguar, monkeys, rhinos, giraffes, snakes, birds, etc. Has a tarantula (arthropods) exhibit. Took 2 boys 6 and 12 and both enjoyed the visit. Small enough to do in an afternoon, about 40 exhibits. A few "shows". A bit stinky but maybe expected for a zoo. Visited in late May 2019; weather was cool.

The area is very nice to have a time together the kids. Everything there is touchable as the name says. Not only the kids enjoy but we also enjoy each attractions paying only one entrance per person. Is nice to get there as soon as it opens to have time enough to see everything.

definitely for younger audiences (6-12 years). Not much to do there or in the surrounding area so not worth the uber to visit.

This tin thinker man, is standing at the exit of the Interactive Science Museum Mirador. So he might be thinking about the whole experience of small early scientists coming out of the many demonstrations inside. Wonderful place devoted to science, lot of physics, biology, chemistry. Every school should include it in the academic year, small monsters and big monsters, all ages welcome.

This is a great place for both children and adults. Children will probably be able to amuse themselves for a whole day, adults probably for a few hours.

Nice museum, close to the metro line. The museum is situated in a nice and open area, which is nice to go if you want to discover without having to pay.

Brilliant place. So many exhibits to touch and twiddle in a well laid out space. All in Spanish, but if you have a decent level you'll be ok. The earthquake room is a big attraction and you have to reserve a place in advance. I don't think you can do that when you buy the tickets online. (As a solo visitor I managed to bag a seat even when it was agotado.)

Super recommended for kids (and adults 😄). It's a great science museum with many fun things to see and interact with. I can't wait to go back again with my son when he's older. He's only 2 so we couldn't appreciate the whole deal but it's perfect for 4 year old kids.

Buying a ticket didn’t take long, but there was quite a long queue to board the funicular—even on a weekday. I can only imagine how crowded it gets on weekends and public holidays. Still, it’s a unique and scenic way to reach Cerro San Cristóbal, so it’s worth the wait if you have time!

What a great Funicular to travel on. I bought a ticket online just before I joined the queue. There was a separate queue for people buying tickets at the kiosk but the online queue was much quicker. When the ticket queue reaches to ticket hall (bottom of Funicular) you will be there about 10 minutes but you get a great view of the cars going up and down (you can also buy an ice cream in the ticket hall)

Hi my name is Daniela, one wordtp describe this experience AMAZING. I did a retourn ticket with Teleferica included for circa 8€ and the experience is unforgattable. If you are in Santiago to take both is a MUST!

Visited on a Wednesday afternoon. Very organized and lines moved fast. You can buy tickets online which saves you time. They take card and cash! Very beautiful views. For best views take the seat on the cable car on the right hand so you can have the view of arrival. Highly recommended!!

Showed up around 15.00, no line at the ticket counter. Funicular had a small line. Nice views of the city and an interesting religious site at the top. Bought the return ticket for the cablecar and funicular but in my opinion not worth it. Just get a one way ticket catch a metro form the other end.

Well organised ! You will have to wait a bit but not too much

Fun little experience in the heart of the city. We booked the tickets in advance.

Terminal de criminals. Avoid! 4GS provide no security and turn a blind eye to theft. The bus check-in staff on Express Norte are also corrupt and allow theives to operate on their buses free of charge. Not safe for expierenced travellers or locals.

It's very busy, information is realy bad and chaotic and there are gangs active to steal your stuff. So if you need a to pass through this station and you get some black stuff sprayed on you. Go away and stand close to security. Don't let anyone help you!

Gateway to many destinations in Chile. There is a mall downstairs to do some shopping before your journey.

The bus terminal is on the second floor of a shopping center. It's very crowded on weekends. It's the shopping center not the big mall nearby.

It's crowded, chaotic and without sufficient info but once you 'get' the place, it's an alright starting point for cheap travel

Poorly managed, chaos. Taxi rank a shambles, buses queuing. Good luck.

Horrible staff and security

An excellent pleasant surprise of visiting this cultural center, i spent almost one and a half hours there with photographic exhibit and oil paintings collected by the central bank of Chile.

Great cultural center. Not very crowded in the mornings. Some of the exhibitions are free. It is very family friendly. Photos are permitted in most places. I would recommend going to exhibitions related to Chilean culture.

There were 4 different small exhibitions in different levels of this huge underground building when we visited. My favorites were the Danish children's book illustrations showing how they have evolved over the decades and the photography exhibit of women football fans from South America and their various stories. Very moving or inspiring in many cases. Some additional explanations in English would have been nice, but we are in Chile, so that isn't a criticism.

The inside looks really nice but I thought the exhibits were pretty boring and it didn’t help that there was absolutely no English anywhere. There are 6 exhibits total and 4 of them are free with 2 requiring a paid ticket.

Great space to appreciate local culture and art. There are a couple of stores with excellent although expensive items. Entry is free but you need to reserve your ticket in advance. Staff can be rude at times but that's just another sample of the Chilean culture.

Fantastic Cultural center that is surprisingly hidden as it’s underneath the massive open space plaza above. There’s 2 small stairwells at either end which lead down underneath to the 2 story underground mall like area where many booths are dedicated as mini museums and others are gift shops showcasing local artwork and goods. Really enjoyed the art exhibits as they were showcasing a lot of unique pieces and many of them by less well known local artists that are only possible to be seen in Chile. There’s even a small theater although I did not get to personally experience it due to time constraints. You don’t have to budget too much time here but since everything here is free, feel free to spend as little or as much time as you would like.

.....What a stunning building back to back with the La Moneda Palace (the state-lii office of the President) where the entrance to the building is downstairs and you have to walk down a ramp to get there! It’s no dull walk because the first sighting to greet you is the water cascading down the full length of the ramps width coming from the roof-top fountain indeed a pleasant watery sound and sight. Then you are greeted by the neat signage and the big glass entrance. The level on which you arrive give you the impression of a super large atrium with smaller galleries on either side! The design of this building seems to be around “Ramps” again to get downstairs you walk down the ramps on either side. Looking down you will see a large area with comfortable simple-settees where you can sit and enjoy the shadow-video shows playing on the walls. Downstairs there are the Cinemas, a nice size restaurant, lots of smaller shops selling books, jewelry and artwork. The restroom facilities are nice and clean. It is free to gain access to this beautiful exhibition center and it is a very worthwhile experience to visit here!.....

There are a lot of animals and birds you can see here. The entrance is free, and reserve your tickets online before visit But I think animals are not happy!!!!

Free, fun activities with lots of animals (including native and extinct) to see and city views!! Highly recommend! It took us about two hours to see everything. And luckily it was the time to feed many of the animals and we had some of the best zoo encounters in our lives! The zoo staff for instance, laid pieces of meat all over for Catacal to sniff and eat. It was super fun to see Catacal zooming around sniffing for food once it’s released from cage. And there were the screaming Gibons, very cute… one of the giraffe was obsessed with the fence and kept munching on it … we saw lettuce eating Emus, and being petted like little dogs. We couldn’t see the red panda (no longer there), and the tiger and Puma hid themselves the whole time.

Because of the ongoing reconstuctions the entrance fee was free, which is really a nice gesture. A lot of enthusiastic zoo workers told us interesting facts about the animals and recommended a route to visit. It's really a lovely programme. Free toilets and the funicular is also very close.

I really like this place. There are a lot of animals and birds you can see here. The zoo is clean and the animals are happy. The entrance is free, but you have to reserve your tickets online before visit

Maintenance needs to be improved. Some cages are empty and some parts are completely closed. There’s no tiger, no red panda, can barely see the lion and elephant. The smell is not good inside but the reason might be the rain.

Be prepared for a climb. The zoo sits on a hillside. In fact, one entrance is in the middle of the funicular. Have a card to pay there. Plenty of places to sit and rest or have a snack break. Not all of the animals were available to see. The lions and tigers were super active and fun to watch and it was awesome to see the condors!

Fun zoo. Good diversity of animals, and easy to get close to them. The zoo is on a pretty steep hill, but has a very manageable footprint - so walking around or pushing a stroller is a little bit of a workout, but not far. Saw everything with the attention span of a 3 year old and 6 year old in probably a little over an hour. Would only recommend to people able to walk up stairs. Mostly, there are ramps, but at least some are too steep for a wheelchair.

Best mall if you’re into action sports! I haven’t seen one with so many outdoor brands represented anywhere in Canada. It’s well accessible, bus stop near by. Has everything starting from water sports and ending with mountaineering. Went to different stores and staff was helpful everywhere. Climbing wall in the middle of the mall just added to the appeal. 10/10 would recommend to anybody who visits Santiago and needs to pick up anything for their adventures.

Good mall, there’s a climbing wall inside it

All you can find out about sports brands. also extreme for kids

Best mall for an outdoorsman, mountaineer, rock climber, downhill mountain biker or hunter. They literally have everything. Even a huge rock climbing wall inside and a wavepool outside.

This place is awesome! It's a must visit while in Santiago. I went last Winter (summer NA) and can't wait to go back in the summer! You can surf at the mall! The shopping for sports wear and accessories is unlimited and the number of activities you can actually participate in are vast. Must Go!

Great place for bike accesories, surfing, rafting, snow, skate and so on. Parking has two levels, restaurants area inside. Great for kids also with kinder -games all year. Music and dj are too loud for me, It was ok for the people but I was looking something more calm on sunday hehe.

It's the most comprehensive outdoor shopping place in the neighborhood. You can get the gears for a large variety of sports here. They have restaurants, snack bars and a kids play area as well. But only two compass available in the entire building .

This actually left me disappointed. The traditional Chilean eatery with street food style sandwiches on offer. Wasn’t a fan of- heavy on the sauce, and whilst large portions- lacking in flavour, it wasn’t for me. In addition service was very dismissive and unfriendly.

My chileno amigos in Australia recommended this place so I tried it out whilst transiting through Santiago. The service was friendly and I was seated straight away. The Romano was absolutely massive but that didn’t stop me from eating the whole thing. The place is an institution

Again, perfection! I can’t get enough of these sandwiches. I will miss them immensely when I go back to Canada. The perfect combination and quality and old school service. The beers are huge and the sandwiches are even bigger!

Got overwhelmed by the menu but managed to order the churrasco italiano (tomato and avocado and mayo and meat). Something about the way they made the meat is just amazing. Big portion and I saved half for lunch next day (they pack your to go sandwich very well). I love it and crave for the chance to try another sandwich. Came on a Saturday for dinner and did not have to wait and got seated at counter inside.

Expect a line but it moves very quickly. The Italian style churrasco was the best (has avocados on top) and one sandwich can easily feed 2 people. We also tried the Romano with farmer style with mayo, it was good too but not as good as churrasco.

The Italian sandwich was drowning in gallons of mayonnaise… also had avocado and tomato. Tomato was cut horribly uneven. Good luck figuring out what the different meats are or what goes on each sandwich. A total disaster for us ⚰️

Very disappointed considering this place has very good reviews. I ordered the churrasco with sauerkraut, tomato, mayo. The meat was bland, I don’t think there was any seasoning on it at all, and there was far too much mayo which made it impossible to eat properly as it made the bread soggy, the mayo was also completely flavourless. If you’re going to load it with mayo as least make it taste good. Overall just a bland, difficult to eat sandwich, really not worth the good reviews I’ve seen

Better to go to if you have a car, we Uber’d walked around but someone told us not to take pictures or someone could snatch our phones. Some painting fading out others were good. If you have a car sure stroll through but wouldn’t Uber here again.

Great street art decorates entire buildings. Many different styles can be observed. Easy to reach with line 2 of the metro.

Beautiful murals! There's at least 40-50 scattered through the neighborhood, mostly on two main east-west roads (if you start at the Google maps location go west to the next major road and then north one block and then back to the east). Try to buy something from a store or street vendor to put some money into the neighborhood since the murals are free to view!

Great idea & perfect implementation - open-air graffiti museum in a "working" district, which makes dull surroundings brighter/better. Some murals are ingenious, some are less so, but majority of them touch important topics of Chilean society / humanity in general.

The museum is five square blocks of residential buildings with murals on the sides. It's nice walking through the neighborhood and enjoying the art works. We took the metro using Bip cards from Bellas Artes with one connection to get there.

Many murals set in different parallel streets. We could not see them all but maybe a half of them. Some were more beautiful than others, of course, but they all meant something and told a story. They are in a very poor block, though, that looked a bit dangerous since we were the only tourists, with locals around.

The murals add real value to the neighbourhood. "Meseum" may be an overstatement, nonetheless the volume of artwork is impressive. It gets better away from the main road.

Nice spot to grab some ice cream and relax. The place has a cute and cozy vibe, and it’s supposedly one of the best ice cream parlor of the world. The ice cream is their specialty, with lots of unique flavors to choose from. I tried a couple of them, and they were great. They also have a small menu of snacks and drinks. This spot is mostly for to-go orders, as there are no tables to sit at. The process is a bit different—you pay first, then take your ticket to another person to get your ice cream. It can get crowded, so expect a short wait in lines. The prices are a bit cheaper compared to other shops in the area. Friendly staff. Credit cards accepted.

Very good collection of icecreams and desserts. The 3 scoop is a good deal but the portion is pretty big. But thats a good way to try out different flavors. They have a lot other branches in the city but this one i believe is the most famous one.

Emporio La Rosa Cafe is a gem for those seeking a delightful culinary experience. The extensive selection of flavorful ice creams is a highlight, offering a tantalizing variety. Beyond the sweet treats, the cafe excels in providing appetizers, sandwiches, and diverse dishes, catering to different preferences. The charming ambiance and the quality of their offerings make Emporio La Rosa a top choice for those looking to savor both sweet and savory delights in one place.

This is a solid ice cream shop with lots of flavors and offers. You can get single and double scoop sizes for a steal at less than $5 for either as of January 2024. The dark chocolate and pineapple flavors were our favorites. They also offer popsicles on the other side of the store. It's a small interior and a popular area so expect a line and not much seating. Plan to walk and eat, but it's worth it.

This ice cream shop is a chain that can be found around Chile and is boasted to be some of the best ice cream in the world! I would agree that it is delicious and the portions are huge. The favours are unique (like the roasted flour that tastes like a sugar cookie). The seating outside is ample and always packed!

The tasters and gelato were amazing. Very smooth creamy , flavorful melted quickly. No accessible entrance for wheelchair users.

Went here with many recommendations and agree with them. Had so many flavors and options. The place had a big queue of people for ordering. Tried their Dulce tentacio and chocolate - both were excellent. We ordered one scoop and came with a sugar cone. Have seating outdoors where we sat and enjoyed it. They give out tasters too - we tried few before deciding which is helpful.

Nice break for the families with children. We came on a hot summer day and it was shady and breeze. Not crowded. Clean bathrooms. Cafeteria. Small playgrounds throughout the property. You pay entrance 2x, one for the main area and then to the Farm. Fun small children zip line. Good filler to get out of the city. You could do hiking after in the rest of the park.

Nice place to go with kids. They can feed and pet different animals like sheep, goats, horses, donkeys, lamas, ducks and pigs. There's also some games for kids like a tree house and some bridges that can be crossed.

To be honest, it is a disappointment to come here and scandalous they ask that amount of money to every person and Child to enter! Would not recommend. Entrance fee is way too high for what you get in return! You have to pay a park fee as well on top op the try fee because it is located into a park. The staff from the restaurant was unfriendly and you connot pay with cash. Much better places to visit with children when in santiago!

Loved the animals, the lamas were quite funny, and the games are mostly for children. I would recommend buying the food to give to the animals, you get it at the entrance along with the tickets and the animals love it which makes easier to pet them

Nice place. My kids enjoyed it. It is not an all day adventure, maybe just a couple of hours. Definitely i do not think it is worth the money they charge. You have to pay a "park fee" of about CLP$3500 plus emtrance to the granja CLP$3900. There are no signs whatsover indicating where to go to the granja aventura. The day we arrived (tuesday) there was no one in the ticket window. 2 women sitting chit chatting in a chair outside. Again, no signs. It took us about 10 minutes for someone to be able to process payment for our tickets (I am native from Chile and i speak perfect spanish). We literally could have walked in without paying and no one would have noticed. They have activities for the kids. We tried to milk the cows. Followed the brochure that said that activity was at 11am. No signs so it took us some time to find the area. We got there about 1055a. A gentleman was cleaning the stall. We asked if we were in the right place and he told us someone would come to do the activity. At 11a he left. Another gentleman showed up to pick up some stuff at 1115a. We asked again and he responded in a VERY rude way that it was not 11a yet so that we needed to wait (they were several ppl in line and all of our phones were saying 1115a o close) he then left and didnt come back for another 10 mins. We finally did the activity. We tried to ride the horses.... well again, no signs whatsoever. Took us a little bit and asking alot of questions to find the place to ride the horses. There were about 12 kids PLUS a school group of about 15 kids. All there to ride ONE horse. That was it! They only had one horse "available". The canopy was great, lots of fun. Everything that didnt require a guide was great. So i was a little dissapointed with the price and low quality in regards to the service they advertise.

Good place for kids, you can interact with goats, sheeps and other animals. Kids can participate in different activities. It is not a place for all day trip.

Loving the place to go with kids, they really enjoy touching the animals

Great place to just walk around, shop, dine and relax. 6 floors of best shopping in Santiago. Great views from the 5th floor of dining and plenty of underground parking space. Highly recommend.

Hi my nae is Daniela. This mall is huge. A lot of brands, you can find a bit of everything. Prices are like in EU, not really local things but the surrounding zone to the mall looks very interesting

This mall offers a large selection of brand names like Nike, North Face, Columbia, Gap etc. The pricing is higher than in US for certain brands and therefore I didn't buy anything. However, I liked visiting the Decathlon store, which is a discount sporting goods retailer and without any stores in the US. Overall I enjoyed the clean and relaxed atmosphere with enough benches and restrooms on each level. They have also USB ports and free WiFi for their customers. The Jumbo supermarket is a plus with a large variety of foods and reasonably priced.

Wonderful shopping area but many items are expensive even by U.S. dollar standards in June of 2025. Come ready to spend!

Ate at El Japones and Frida Kahlo. Pinku sake dish was excellent. Vibe and decor at Frida was brill.

Nice shopping centre, but prices on par with other countries. Good food court on the 5th floor.

Must go Landmark in Santiago. The tallest building in South America. There is huge and modern shopping mall at ground floor area.

The food is variable, portions on the small side. Service is efficient if a little perfunctory. The bread we got at the start of the meal was dry and had been reheated. For this price point, I'd expect freshly baked bread. The key thing about this place is its lovely location by the park.

Many people smoke outside so it’s not a good place to sit. Also many flies can be very disturbing. Traditional dishes are very good, but I don’t like the new dessert. Food is 5 star, service is okay.

Mestizo is a fantastic restaurant located right at Santiago's Parque Bicentenario. Sitting outside one can enjoy the fresh air and nature while enjoying perfect seafood dishes paired with great wines and beer. The staff was very attentive and friendly and this combined with the quality of the food and the lovely surroundings this restaurant is outstanding.

This was perfect for a larger group client dinner for a business meeting. Great atmosphere, good food, views, service. The staff were very attentive - thank you especially to Ivan E. for going above and beyond to provide excellent follow up support!

Really enjoyed the experience. We were the only non-Chileans in the restaurant, which is a mark of quality in itself. Fried artichoke salad was light, crunchy, a great start. The grilled octopus was better than I anticipated. It was soft and crunchy. The peppers really helped liven up the flavor. The tre leches was thick and sticky and wonderful. The pineapple sauce that came with it was incredible on its own, but didn’t make a lot of sense with the tres leches. In any case, very good. We would absolutely go back.

Es magnífico. I asked locals where the most special restaurant is in Santiago, and I’m grateful that they pointed me towards Mestizo. The seafood and duck dishes were spectacular, and the staff is gracious, professional, and friendly. The location must be the most beautiful spot in Santiago, and it was lovely to see the swans and water gardens while enjoying my amazingly delicious meal. I’ll be coming to Mestizo on every trip through Santiago from now on.

What an amazing place! Located in the park with beautiful views and nice calm atmosphere. My first time having machas - what a dish! Lot of sauce and a full flavor. Also, of tbe best ceviches I've ever had. Marvelous Perez Cruz carmenere. Need to go back!

Great shopping center with tones of stores and lots of high quality restaurants

Parque Arauco is perfectly situated next to the Courtyard by Marriott and just down the street from the Santiago Marriott. As loyal Marriott guests, my fiancée and I were thrilled to discover this mall within easy walking distance of our hotel. From the outside, the complex seems modest, but inside it unfolds into a spacious layout. You’ll find both large and smaller indoor sections linked by an open-air promenade, giving the mall plenty of breathing room and variety. We visited Parque Arauco at least seven times during our two-week stay, drawn by the wide range of shops and restaurants. Whether we were hunting for souvenirs or enjoying a leisurely meal, there was always something to suit our needs. The mall also boasts the closest Starbucks to both Marriott properties, which was perfect for our morning coffee runs. Security is visible throughout the complex, reflecting its popularity and steady crowds every day of the week. Although we always walked from our hotel, we stayed alert for the steady stream of cars entering and exiting the parking garages off Avenida Kennedy. While the Costanera Center is larger and Alto Las Condes feels more upscale, Parque Arauco won us over with its superb convenience and well-rounded offerings. We’ll definitely make it our first stop the next time we’re in Santiago

Very cool mall with an open outdoorsy concept. It is very high end with luxury brands all around it, but there are normal priced stores and restaurants too. It doesn't feel cold and uninviting as some malls in the same niche might be. It was worth a visit. Beautiful parks nearby and close to very good hotels in the city.

Great place to shop in Santiago. New and trendy with loads of options. They have a cinema as well. There isn't a supermarket however there are loads of restaurants and even more ice cream parlours. Safety seems to be a priority as there are always guards walking around, which is a good thing at the end of the day. Enjoy!

Great place to shop and eat something. There are a lot of stores here where you may found what you need. There's a cinema and many food options too. The prices may be different in every store, you'll find many offers and deals of the day. Bathrooms are clean and the parking floors are big. Always be careful with your bags.

It's a beautiful safe place to shop. Lots of varieties. Nice place to eat aswell. The toilets are spotless. Our favourite place to buy stuff.

It is a huge mall with luxury brands and regular and specialty retail stores. Anchored by major stores- Ripley, Falabella, IKEA and Paris. It is being renovated so for a tourist it is quite confusing. There are signs but not a lot so I kept going back and forth. Layout is confusing. It has many places to eat and many coffee, snack shops. There were some places for kids to play.

This was a fun place. It is equal parts funhouse and food. Speaking of the food, solid cafe fare that's perfect for a light meal. I wouldn't run back for the food, but would certainly return for the decor, costumed staff (lovely and spoke a good amount of English). Enjoy your meal, and then make sure to walk around this maze-like place.

There was a queue outside this place early Sunday morning when we had just arrived in the area from the UK. Thought this must be a good sign so joined the queue, as hungry. Had the brunch for 2. Huge!….porridge with fruit and nuts, breads, butter, jam, plate with eggs and bacon, blini’s with strawberries, fresh orange juice and great coffee. Fantastic service by the English speaking member of staff. Great atmosphere and you were able to walk around the rest of the house to see the Alice in Wonderland decor!

Short queue on a Sunday morning. Ambience was beyond imaginable, with very detailed and intentional decors at every corner. There’s a total of 3 storeys, with a spiral staircase to access the upper floors. It is pretty narrow so definitely not for those that struggle climbing narrow stairs. Food was definitely pretty average in general in terms of originality but it’s simple breakfast food done well. Each main dish comes as a set, with a juice, a tea or coffee, oatmeal with fruits and the main dish itself.

My favorite was the parfait. The coffee is very good. Cute thematic space to spend time with friends.

One of the best breakfast + experience cafe I have been to. The food tastes amazing and the you have to checkout the photo room upstairs. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.

Definitely the bar to be if you are an Alice fan. Good atmosphere and good service. Prices are not so expensive compared with the experience you get. Don't forget to visit the top floor.

I was staying in the area for one day in Santiago. Having arrived on a morning flight, I just went to the closest breakfast place with decent reviews. It looked very promising from the outside, the wait to be seated was about 5 min. However, there are 3 stories and I was seated in a small room on the very last floor. The room was small, dark and not decorated much to be honest. Which would have been fine if the food was good. It was not. I got the scrambled eggs and bacon on a toast which comes with a coffee and juice. I waited for about 30 min for food (mind you this is just scrambled eggs and fried), it then arrived cold and the toast was too hard. The cappuccino also arrived lukewarm. Honestly the food just ruined the whole vibe. Then I went to find the waiter to pay cause no one was coming to our small room and he had the audacity to ask if I'm leaving a tip. Just a no from me. Mediocre food, questionable interior on the upper floors (I think the ground floor and the garden are nicer) and there also people filming everything everywhere. We had people come in to our small room and just film it on video🤦🏻‍♀️ Long story short, don't come if you're not a diehard fan of Alice in the Wonderland. If you are, get sitted on the ground floor/garden.

Nice park if you like art. Cool to hang out on the grass.

There are a number of interesting sculptures here set within this nice little park with shaded areas under the trees and benches where you can sit.

Beautiful and safe place to enjoy the river, flowers and sculptures during the day.

A little disappointing, with not many seats to sit on and not a huge number of sculptures. Those they have are very interesting though, and there are some lovely gnarly old trees.

Lots of couples. Very interesting modern sculptures. Good selfie spot

By far my favorite park

Great green areas!!!

This is a great historical building and even better children's museum. Located across the street from the large park “Quinta”

5 stars mainly for the outside architecture! Wow!!! It’s beautiful! Inside is definitely more aimed towards children but I still enjoyed. Cheap 1,000 ticket for students.

We went to a Leonardo Da Vinci exhibit and it was awesome. Ground floor had a 360 degree projection that was very informative and entertaining for kids and adults, and the top floor had mini replicas of some of Leonardo’s machines. It was great fun! And as we visited on a Sunday, admission was for free! (Voluntary donations)

The museum had an exhibit called DaVinci Experience. It was great. It shows in great detail (blown up images of paintings and drawings) his work. The explanations in this 30 minute 360-degree projection on walls and floor were in Spanish and English. The second floor has recreations of Leonardo's machines. It was super cool and instructive. Imagine his paintings blown up so that faces are 15 feet or 5 meters tall.

A little exhibition dedicated to da Vinci. The outside is more interesting than the inside. The quick intro was only in Spanish. You enter this large room that runs a continuous sideshow and I was bored after a few seconds. I wondered to myself, is this it?! Then I saw some people sneaking behind the curtain at the back and I took a peak. There were two sets of stairs that led to the top floor, which contained a few simple wooden machines. It didn't contain much information and wasn't very interesting.

It's only $1000 CP to enter, but really a waste if time. Upstairs is more like a children's recreational area and ground floor is just reproductions of some well know paintings. I spent about 10 mins there before I left. You might as well just look at originals on the Internet. Very disappointing. It earns one star for the building itself.

It is great as a cultural center. The workshop and courses are almost at the level of Balmaceda 1215. As a museum, it sucks big-time . You will see like 5 paintings and 3 sculptures. I advice you not to come as general public.

This place had a fantastic atmosphere. I would definitely go back. regarding the service, I would improve it a little bit because when I asked for the check, I had to wait seven minutes for the person to bring my bill to pay. This was a bit uncomfortable!

Excellent cafe! The hot chocolate is really good, and so are their cakes! 😋. Good service and a nice atmosphere. They also sell chocolates, and they have a nice patio too. Highly recommend! 😃

Great place to drink chocolate and eat really tasty chocolate treats.

Recently found this cafe and been there many times, the staff super friendly and helpful even I don't speak Spanish but they are the best and really good service

I really love it, best hot chocolate ever!!, the churros are delicious as well ☕. Good attention

Excellent hot chocolate and green tea

Great hot chocolate. Creamy and flavorful.

We had a lot of fun. It's a really nice place to take your kids. They observed COVID-19 policies, which I really appreciate. There was a line to get in at noon sice the pandemic limited capacity (phase 2) I'd definitely come back and recommend 8/10 The line for food is way too long!

Super place if you have little kids (4-10 yo?) they have lots of games and the kids will have fun for sure. Downside, the administration forgot to maintain walls and other things. The place looks like it's been left to run down, as if it hasn't been properly maintained in terms of...the awnings, the walls and roof look old, the paint is coming off...but to be fair, the machines (games) were in good condition and the safety for the children was adequate.

Children above 120cms height has many rides. Good for Kids 2Y - 12Y. Bit costly.

Like a Thematic park...dedicate to kids, from 4 to 15 they have fun in or out doors... I don't know but they have 2 names "let's fun" and "Mampato"... I don't know the reason.

Great place to go with kids (4-10) Nice rides and Safe place. Try to go early to avoid queues.

Good for the kids, safe. All machines are very well maintained

Great for small children! 3-10 is optimal

Feeling under the water, went by and tried and ice cream ginger lemon mint and a coffee… wow

it's just okay. definitely not gelato, watery but not bad.

Great selection of both sorbet and ice cream in a cute little eis cafe. The staff was both friendly and helpful.

Delightful spot, lovely ice-cream, wonderful service. Very highly recommended

It is a very good ice cream parlour in El Golf area of Santiago. The orange chocolate bitter is really something else. They also sell good expressos. It is not expensive and generally not overcrowded

I liked the place but my experience was disappointing. I had the tiniest portion of ice cream I’ve had in Santiago, I ordered cafe flavour and the taste is just like a milk. For the price it def not worth it.

Fabulous ice cream! I don't feel a need to explore any more ice cream shops in Santiago. This one will be my go-to. The dulce de leche ice cream was incredible.

A very busy mall indeed. Clean facilities with many stores and restaurants including a Jumbo supermarket.

It is a nice mall, access to parking is some how difficult depends on the season and hours, I do suggest to get there early. Very nice restaurants indoors and outdoors. Try parking underground for safety. Around 8 pm if you are driving they start to close entrances with no signs or staff to let you know what exit to use.

If you go early before rush hour and during the week this shopping mall is enjoyable. Not many people you bump into or children running around. So you can spend your money quietly or just window shop with no rush. It's near a metro station (line 5), it has a big supermarket inside etc

Amazing shop but uhh here steamboat Willie mouse picture

Clean, big, during the week it was spacious and not crowded.

You’ll find a bit of everything!

I didn't like this place at all.

This place is so wonderful and nice. It is great for Santiago citizen they have so many parks in the city. I like here.

A really lovely park. Not too busy and very tranquil. A perfect green space to relax and soak up the sun, while enjoying the view of the city.

A great city garden to explore the regions of Chile from north to south!

Good place special for kids, at the front of the fountain there is a shop, and on the side a nice pirate wooden circuit for kids!

This park is wonderful! Well kept and part of the city. Really nice to walk and have a picnic

Excellent place for outdoors workout, hiking or simply take a walk with your family and breath some clean air as you eat a fruit or drink a traditional mote con huesillo

Wonderful experience.
