So I'm saving money towards a trip I would like to do
I would like to visit parts of Chile, mainly Tierra Del Fuego, along the way there's other historical sites I would like to tour around Puerto Montt and the Island of Chiloe. so probably making a V shaped trip, fly to one part of Chile, then fly to Punta Arenas.
Then the Argentine border is pretty close to there and I would like to maybe visit that country as well, mainly I'm interested in visiting lighthouses which appear to have open sites for photography and visitors as historical monuments in both countries. I have traveled much of the Western US and parts of Canada visiting lighthouses and taking pictures and would like to visit some of these lighthouses in South America.
Basic things, I am learning to speak spanish at a functional level and I checked with the both the US State Department and UK Home office travel advice and it seems neither country is really unsafe for western travelers, although It seems Chile is the better of the two.
I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience travelling to either country?
