Photo quests in Santiago

What the catalogue actually holds here, and which of it is worth rearranging a day around.

Santiago holds nine quests across six categories, led by Food with three — though only just, with two in Party behind it. The one category with nothing in Santiago so far is Beach.

One is tier 1, the tier kept for what a visitor would not have found on their own: Cementerio General. It is also the only quest here whose check-in asks for PRO; the other eight are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers seven of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway.

A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Party is the group where the hour decides everything: the same address is a landmark at midnight and an empty street at six. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point.

By category

Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Santiago quests among them.

Tier 1

The unexpected ones

The one quests in Santiago the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures — the half of a city a guidebook has no room for.

Questions

About quests in Santiago

How many photo quests are there in Santiago?
9, across six of the seven categories the catalogue uses. The deepest groups are Food (3) and Party (2). Nothing in Beach here yet — a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. Among them: Cementerio General, Santa Lucía Hill and Museo Cielo Abierto.
What is there to do in Santiago beyond the obvious?
One of the 9 quests in Santiago is tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Santiago holds one at tier 1, one at tier 2 and seven at tier 3. The tier 1 quest here is Cementerio General, in History.
Can you do all the Santiago quests on one trip?
Yes, given a few days. Every one of the 9 falls within 7.1 km of the middle of the Santiago list — walking and local transport, not day trips — so this is a list to plan a visit around rather than a reason to extend one.
Which Santiago quests can you do for free?
8 of the 9 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 9 can be read and travelled to without paying anything — the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Santiago means one quest: Cementerio General.
How do I prove I visited a place in Santiago?
Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Santiago is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Cementerio General fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Santiago sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from.
