Top Museums in Chile

Bring a little snack and a drink with you! The place is stunning, and there are some nice spots to sit outside and enjoy a break with a view.

If you’re into souvenirs, definitely check out the gift shop. They have unique items inspired by Neruda and the sea, but keep an eye on prices – some stuff is a bit steep!

I recommend getting there right when they open at 10 AM. It was way less crowded, and I could take my time with the exhibits without feeling rushed

Check the museum's calendar ahead of time. Sometimes they have special events or talks that can really enrich your visit. I stumbled upon a great one by luck.

Don’t forget to visit the museum shop! They have some unique books and souvenirs related to human rights that I didn’t see anywhere else.

Don't miss the fantastic botanical garden outside! I stumbled upon it by chance and it was a peaceful escape from the busy museum... Perfect for a quick break

I recommend taking a pic of the map when you enter. It helped me navigate the museum much easier instead of wandering around aimlessly like I did at first!

If you're planning to spend hours here, bring some snacks. The museum can get tiring, and I regretted not having something to munch on during my visit.

Definitely check out the dinosaur exhibit – it’s really cool! I suggest you take your time there; it’s more impressive than I thought. I almost skipped it and would’ve regretted it

I think it’s totally worth taking your time in the contemporary art section; it really stands out. I kind of rushed it and regretted not exploring more!

I suggest going on a Tuesday. It's usually less crowded and sometimes they have free entries or discounts so you might save some bucks!

Try to visit on a weekday, like Tuesday or Wednesday - it's way less crowded. I did this and enjoyed the peace while exploring the house.

I recommend taking the local bus or a shared taxi to save money on transport. Parking can be a pain, and the neighborhood is a bit hilly!

I suggest visiting on a weekdays to avoid the crowds. I went on a Saturday and it was packed, which made it hard to enjoy the exhibits fully.

My advice is to buy your tickets online in advance. I saved a few bucks, and it saved me waiting in a long line when I arrived. Totally worth it!
