SAFETY

SAFETY

Chile is generally safe but if you check your home countries travel advisories then you will probably see a warning issued with a high level of risk noted for Chile. At Xpolorist we are well-healed travellers and quite often the situation on the ground is much different. Ultimately a traveller must do their own research and be smart but not scared. There are good and bad people everywhere but socio-economic pressures and changing political landscapes in countries can change things quickly.
