Chile · VALLE NEVADO & ANDES SKI TRIPS
Sixty switchbacks above the capital there is snow from June to September and an empty mountain road the rest of the year. These 15 separate the ski days from the sightseeing ones, with prices, gear hire and who needs the chains.
A practical review of Santiago’s Farellones Park tour, with mountain views, tubing, sledding, transport tips, costs, and snow advice.
“Let me start by saying that our tour guide Sebastian and our driver were really good. Nonetheless, the process of getting the snow gear could be significantly improved. It felt like we were cattle rushing to get outfits in min time record. Terrible!”

Review of the Santiago to Valle Nevado and Farellones tour, with Andes views, snow activities, costs, timing, guides, and practical booking advice.
“The tour that we booked stated on your website that it would be going to both Farellones AND Valle Nevado. Our driver dropped some people at Farellones Parque and then advised remaining customers that we WOULD NOT be going to Valle Nevado. My wife and I only booked the tour because website stated that we would go to BOTH FARELLONES AND VALLE NEVADO. We liked the driver but, your tour sucked.”
Review of the Farellones snow park tour from Santiago, with transport, activities, clothing tips, queues, costs, and practical booking advice.
“CAOS TOTAL. Zero estrutura para receber um mínimo de clientes. local com banheiros sujos e fedidos como um chiqueiro de porcos. Vendem um produto que não existe e são co- responsáveis pelo transtorno desse passeio. Os próprios funcionários do parque e agentes de viagem não recomendam o passeio. Solicitei a devolução do investimento mas, obviamente, terceirizaram a culpa do caos.”

“El Guía solo realizó 1 parada durante la subida, la Van es muy pequeña para la cantidad de personas que llevaban, no se puede ver ni disfrutar del paisaje REALMENTE NO RECOMIENDO REALIZAR ESTE TOUR CON ESTA EMPRESA No realizó ninguna parada en Farellones a pesar de que el tour dice Farellones, el guía solo pasa con la Van y dice esto es Farellones Realmente no lo recomiendo”

Review of Santiago’s Portillo and Laguna del Inca day tour, with mountain stops, transport notes, costs, timing, and practical booking advice.
“Výlet byl naprosto příšerný, za ty peníze to opravdu nestálo. Vyzvednutí bylo okolo 5:30 a v popisu aktivity bylo napsáno, že doba trvání je deset hodin. Jak je tedy možné, že zpátky jsme byli už cca v 14:15? Navíc jsme neviděli ani všechny slibované body (např. vodopád Salto del Soldado). Průvodce byl asi jen na ozdobu, protože nám za celý výlet nic moc neřekl. Jen to, co se týkalo organizace, typu "Toto je hotel Portillo, Laguna del Inca je za ním. Běžte se tam sami podívat. Máte na to hodinu a půl." Samotná laguna byla taky celkem zklamání, protože k ní nebylo možné jít, byla za lyžařským areálem. Ale co…”
Review of the Portillo and Inca Lagoon day trip from Santiago, with mountain views, hotel pickup, practical tips, costs, and honest drawbacks.
“You have to decide if it’s worth to you or not. Basically, the tour is just a van ride to an hotel, Portillo, where you can have a drink or a light meal, and the Inca Lagoon in front of it. The lagoon is beautiful, but the surroundings are not spectacular. There is some construction work going on and construction materials visible that make the experience a little less “natural” and “clean”. You will make a stop midway to have breakfast, so you’ll feel you’re always eating during this tour. You will come back to the same café where you stop in the morning for a picnic later on (I…”
Ride from Santiago to Valle Nevado for a ski day with hotel transfers, mountain views, rental options, and five hours at 3,000 meters.
“O transporte foi bastante pontual, com guia e motoristas super simpáticos. A comunicação do horário de saída foi feita no dia anterior como planejado. Os únicos pontos de atenção são: A van não é muito espaçosa para as pernas e o rental de alugar roupas é muito caro com roupas medianas (aspecto de velhas). Fora isso tudo dentro do esperado, no geral foi uma experiência ok. Cumpre seu papel.”
