Description

We will start from your hotel in Santiago at 6:30 AM for a scheduled service, or at the time you request for a private service. Our guide/driver will pick you up. In approximately 2 hours, we'll ascend further and further up the Maipo Valley until we reach the Yeso Reservoir. Throughout the journey, we'll have beautiful landscapes of mountains, volcanoes, and glaciers, where we can take as many photos as you like. Once we reach the Yeso Reservoir, we'll have a small snack while you enjoy the landscape and the turquoise waters of the reservoir. When we finish the snack, we'll descend through the Maipo Valley, this time on the other side of the river.
