Chile #1 Spot on Lonely Planet List - And We Want to Reward You for It

Written By Donald Meteny

It's definitely been quite the year for Chile, and we're giving you a chance to get in on the action with an unforgettable giveaway trip.

From taking home a top spot on the coveted New York Times 52 Places list back in January to a series of other accolades, Chile has emerged as one of the world's most talked-about destinations.

Now it appears the buzz will parlay into 2018: Lonely Planet has announced its "Best in Travel 2018" list and guess who's nagged the top spot? You've guessed it- our friends in Chile!

Whether it's a trip to Atacama Desert, the heart of Patagonia, exotic Easter Island or increasingly hip Santiago, we kind of have to agree that there are few countries more deserving of such an honor. And we want to celebrate with you!

Last year we partnered with Chile's Tourism Board and Marmot to offer one lucky winner and her sister an epic 12-day trip all over Chile. Next month we'll re-team with Chile's Tourism Board to run yet another sweepstakes for a Chilean adventure giveaway, this time with our partners at Outside Magazine.

Stay tuned for details on how to win and make sure to check out the complete feature on Lonely Planet.
