Private snow tour in the Andes from Santiago

High-mountain snow, with a vehicle and guide just for you

This private tour drives up into the mountains to the ski resorts closest to Santiago, with a vehicle and guide exclusive to your group (no sharing the day with other passengers, no fitting into a group tour’s schedule). It runs every day during the snow season, from June to September. Pickup outside the usual Santiago pickup zones has an extra charge.

The guide knows the area well and coordinates the rental stop with you if you need clothing or equipment, along with the pace of the day in the snow: ski, snowboard, or simply play in the snow.

Why it’s worth it

Because it’s a private tour, the departure time, stops and time spent at each place are built around your group, not a shared excursion’s schedule. There is also a group version, Snow tour in the Andes mountains. As a private tour, the price per person depends on group size: see the price table on this page.

This tour also departs as a group tour, shared with other travelers.
