Still So Far to Go: The Best of Chris Rea is a compilation album by Chris Rea, released by Rhino Records in 2009. It features songs spanning his entire career as well as songs from his recent "blues" period. It also features two new songs: "Come So Far, Yet Still So Far to Go" and "Valentino". The former was released as a single in October 2009 to promote the album but it failed to chart. The album, however, was very successful, peaking at #8 in UK, making it Rea's first entry in the Top 10 in ten years, since The Blue Cafe (1998).

In 2010, after the release of the album, Rea embarked on a European tour called Still So Far to Go; the tour ended on April 5 in Belfast.
