Flying south
Chile Travel currently lists La Araucanía Airport (ZCO) as the main air gateway for Pucón, around 100 km away. Its current English itinerary information describes direct flights from Santiago and then a ground transfer to Pucón. Check current schedules and transfer providers before travel.
Traveling overland
Long-distance buses connect Santiago with the Pucón area. Official tourism information describes the land journey as roughly a full travel day, so many visitors choose an overnight bus or a flight depending on their itinerary.
Where TU DESTINO SUR service begins
The company’s published tours do not include transportation from Santiago or La Araucanía Airport. Huilo Huilo is published from Pucón, while the regular Termas Geométricas program publishes departures from Pucón, Villarrica, Lican Ray and Coñaripe.
Plan the connection before booking a tour
Allow enough time between your arrival in Pucón and the tour departure. If you have a fixed itinerary, send your intended date through WhatsApp before buying non-refundable travel connections.
