Tips om parkering
- In Santiago, use apps like EasyPark or the municipal parking system for metered zones
- Shopping malls typically offer the first 30–60 minutes of parking free with a purchase
- Cuidadores de autos (informal parking attendants) are common — a small tip of CLP 500–1,000 is customary
Genomsnittlig kostnad: CLP 500–2,000/hour in metered zones; CLP 5,000–15,000/day in private parking garages in Santiago
Vanliga misstag som turister gör
- 1Not having a TAG device for Santiago's urban highways — there are no toll booths; without a TAG you pay double the rate
- 2Underestimating the length of Chile — it is over 4,300 km from north to south, and driving times are much longer than expected
- 3Driving in Santiago without understanding the vehicle restriction system (Restricción Vehicular) — certain license plates are banned on specific days
- 4Not carrying snow chains when crossing Andean passes in winter — it is a legal requirement and conditions change rapidly
