More about Chile costs
South Americans find Chile, whose national currency is the Chilean Peso, to be expensive. Prices in Chilean pesos are usually in hundreds to thousands for common goods like food and transportation. However, travelers from Europe and North America will have no problem going around on a low budget. The exchange rates in hotels and airports are incredibly low, so don't have them changed here.
Backpackers should set aside about 10,420.00 CLP (20.78 USD) to 13,000.00 CLP (25.92 USD) daily for their accommodation in hostels and food from markets. Small cities have their own local version for hostels. More comfortable lodging and midrange restaurants will cost about 31,000.00 CLP (61.81 USD). If you end up spending more than 52,000.00 CLP (103.69 USD), you have enough for places that cost double in Europe or America.
