Take a Road Trip in Chile with a Car Rental
The Republic of Chile stretches along the southern part of South America's west coast, nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes mountain range. Its 17 million people enjoy a high quality of life by Latin American standards, and it is one of the continent's most prosperous and stable nations. Chile is a safe country to travel by car, and there are numerous places of interest for visitors. With a wide diversity of natural landscapes, from the fjords of glacial Patagonia to the arid Atacama Desert with its Martian landscapes, to the ancient forests of the Lake District, all with the Andes as a constant backdrop, Chile is without question a stunning place to see and experience. Take your rental car to the central port town of Valparaiso, a UNESCO World Heritage site with uniquely beautiful architecture. For those wanting to head north, be sure to check out San Pedro de Atacama for Incan architecture, Altiplano lakes and the famous Valley of the Moon. So called because of the lunar-like terrain, it's considered one of the world's driest places, with some parts having no rain in hundreds of years. Choose car hire from Sixt and see all of Chile that you want to, at your own pace.

Rented a small suv to tour Chile for 3 weeks; they dropped off and picked up the car at my hotel. Entire transaction was friendly and professional including explanations about local driving. Car was in great condition, we had no problems.

Booked a car with them through the Sixt App and the whole experience was very nice and professional. The cars are new and come equipped with a highway Tag (for the toll roads in and around Santiago). Recommend renting with them.

Staff were really friendly, especially at the car park. Car was new and clean. No extra charges. Altogether a great rental.
I was concerned it needed a shuttle, but it seems they all use the same shuttle and it was simple so nothing to worry about.

We had a great experience renting a pickup truck here. Some of the past reviews were scary so we were a bit nervous coming in but we had no problems at all. We had tried to rent a different car online but they couldn’t complete the reservation. However when we arrived at Temuco airport we approached the desk and they told us a pickup truck was available. We felt lucky to have it as other companies were sold out!
