Taxi collectivos are a great concept in Chile. It’s a taxi service that runs the same route to and from particular neighborhoods. Depending on how far you go, they run from $250 pesos to $1200 pesos. They are quicker than buses and far cheaper than taxis.
It is to your advantage to learn the collectivos that operate in your area and the routes that they cover. If you are claustrophobic, take note of the people you are standing next to in line, you might be sitting in between them, keep this in consideration.
Summers are hot in Santiago and air conditioning relies on the windows.
Taxis are a safe mode of travel but are expensive. Depending on how far you are going, you can sometimes name your price and the meter is never turned on… give it a try but be sure to know what the real price would be.
