South America road trip planning tips

South America trips need more route planning than a simple city break. Distances are large, conditions vary by region, and the best depot depends on the landscape you want to explore.

If your itinerary includes remote areas, check the right vehicle type before booking. A 4WD may be the better choice for some routes, while a campervan can suit more straightforward road trips.

Choose the landscape first

Start in Santiago for the broadest route options, Calama for Atacama and northern Chile, Puerto Varas for lakes and volcanoes, or Punta Arenas for Patagonia. Because there is no dedicated South America trip ideas page yet, the simplest approach is to choose the region first and then match it to the nearest pickup location above.
