Overview

Discover the majestic Andes Mountains on this private full-day trip from Santiago. Start your day with a visit to a family-owned vineyard in San Esteban for a tasting of artisanal wines, then head up the scenic mountain road known as “Los Caracoles” toward the historic Portillo ski resort.

At nearly 3,000 meters above sea level, you’ll find the stunning Inca Lagoon, a glacial lake surrounded by dramatic peaks. Enjoy free time for photos and lunch at the resort (optional), and interact with llamas during picturesque roadside stops. A perfect escape into nature, history, and local flavors.
