Hi

i was wondering if anyone knew if there was a coach, bus or train to sao paulo. As i have no idea since i have never been there and am finding it hard to get the information. Also the cost of the trip from santiago to sao paulo would be appreciated as well. Thanks for your time!

There might be direct services, but it's a very long ride. Somewhere around 35-40 hours if not more.
Better to brake it up in stages if you like to see something along the way.

No trains. A flights is probably more expensive but it saves a few days of travelling..;)

Hi,
it is hard to give you good information because you dont say when you will travel.
I checked LAN(Chile airline)for a price in December.

Santiago- Sao Paulo $ 618.
flight time 3.50 hrs.

I Agree, Bus is a long ride and probably no just one bus, I would suggest to save some days going by plane is just 3 hours
and the cost , will depends but take a look on "gol airlines" or "tam airlines"

Yeah, try TAM. I got a return from Sao Paulo Guarulhos to Santiago de Chile for a little over £200 with about 2 weeks notice.

If you want to go overland there's a lot to see and do between those places.

Mendoza is 7 hours from Santiago, just over the Andes. From Mendoza you can get a bus to Buenos Aires in about 15 hours. From BA you can get one to Puerto Iguazu/Foz do Iguacu in about 14/15 hours. And probably the same length of time again to get to Sampa. If you're not adjusted to long bus rides it might be a killer but these are really cool places. If time allows I'd definately give those places a look. Specially Iguacu.

I would definitely go overland; this route takes you through what imo is the nicest part of Argentina. There's no direct bus, btw. There used to be one once a week (offered by Chevalier I believe), but it was cancelled last year.
