The 4 snow full days from Santiago that cost CLP $42.000: how they differ and what you pay separately (2026)
Four 8-hour snow full days from Santiago, all CLP $42.000. Which one stays in one place, which one makes two stops, how much free time you get, and what sits outside the price.
Seasonal promotional prices in Chilean pesos: checkout is the source of truth. Everything here comes from each listing.
The four snow full days that leave Santiago cost the same: CLP $42.000 per person, 8 hours, bilingual Spanish–Portuguese guide, transport. None include the access ticket, lunch, or gear rental.
They are El Colorado, Valle Nevado, Farellones and the Andes panoramic — all Baco Tours, pickup and hour confirmed on WhatsApp. Price does not decide. Format does: one place with ~5 hours free, or two stops on the mountain road.
Three go to one place and leave you about 5 hours there. The fourth is a two-stop drive. That is the whole difference.
What is the same on all four
- Price: CLP $42.000 per person
- Duration: 8 hours, full day
- Includes: bilingual guide (Spanish and Portuguese) and transport back to Santiago
- Not included: lunch, access ticket, ski or snow-clothes rental
- Pickup: Santiago; exact corner and hour on WhatsApp
- Free cancellation up to 12 hours before; after that it is a no-show
- Kids under 2 (in arms) do not pay; from 3 they pay full fare
- Mountain days depend on weather and the road and can be adjusted
El Colorado, Valle Nevado, Farellones: one place, ~5 hours free
Three listings share the same skeleton: one destination, about 5 hours free. Farellones excludes a 'snow-park access ticket'; El Colorado and Valle Nevado exclude a 'ski-center access ticket'. The panoramic talks about ski centers in the plural.

The panoramic: two stops, no 5-hour block
Five legs on the mountain road, a stop in Farellones and arrival at Valle Nevado. Same price, different day — you are moving, not parked in one resort for five hours.

What other operators publish for the same day
Checked 23 July 2026 in the Chilean press (Meganoticias): shared transfers around $40.000 to Farellones and $50.000 to Valle Nevado; resort tickets $20.000–$74.000. Those are third-party numbers and they age. Our four stay at $42.000 plus the ticket you buy up there.
