How to get from Santiago Airport to Viña del Mar

Santiago Airport (SCL) is roughly 120 kilometers from Viña del Mar, a trip of between 1 hour and 1 hour 30 minutes along Route 68, depending on traffic. There are several ways to make this journey, each with its own advantages.

Available options

· Private transfer: a vehicle reserved only for your group, coordinated with your flight, with a fixed price agreed in advance.

· Street taxi or ride-hailing app: available without prior booking, but with less price certainty and no coordination with your flight schedule.

· Intercity bus: the cheapest option, but with fixed schedules and the need to get yourself to the terminal.

What suits which type of trip

If you travel with family, bulky luggage, at night, or simply prefer not to deal with the uncertainty of finding transport on arrival, a private transfer solves most of those variables at once: they wait for you with your name, adjust the time if your flight is delayed, and you know the exact price before getting into the vehicle.

A practical tip

If you are interested in visiting the Casablanca Valley, that stretch of Route 68 passes right through it, so a guided stop can be arranged along the way without making a separate trip.
