Advantages: Very efficient, clean city with good seafood

Review of Santiago by jimh1

Hi and welcome to Ciao. I wish I could rate this VH as others have done, but it really tells me nothing about Santiago other than the skiing to be had away from the city. Strictly speaking, it's Off Topic, and, ideally, you should ask Ciao to create a new product category for Chilean skiing resorts. Duncan by torr

hi really liked your review! however just a few mistakes had to crrect as i am half chilean and lived i santiago for a year. First one is the football team is not cola cola its colo colo this did make me giggle! Second is that i would say the buggest football team is la universidad de chile or la u for short. other then that great review. by olgita
Your review reminded me a lot of my time in lovely Santiago. I think perhaps you got the funicular price wrong - dont remember paying $1,200 for it - that would be steep! by bergmcberg

Nice city...
Review of Santiago by Suse
