CUSTOM TRIP (All Budget)

Central and Southern Chile

CUSTOM TRIP

The trips on our website are a reference of the main itineraries we can build. Since we work with small groups, we can modify and cater to the groups need , giving more flexibility to trip planning.

If you went through our website and need small modifications, send us a message. We can shorten or extend the trip, we can add more mountains to visit like Antuco , Corralco or Villarica, we can create a custom itinerary with multiple activities such as hot spring visits between mountains and visit the coastline along the way.

The price point gives you a good idea of what to expect for the price invested. Chile is not the cheapest place to visit, so having knowledge and being optimal goes a long way.

As of now all our trips start and finish in Concepcion, and our transportation is a mix of shuttle for long drives and 4x4 pickup truck for driving to and from the resort.

COST & GROUP SIZE

Our budgets are built in $USD per person and aim to have a minimum group size of 4 individuals. Should the group consist of fewer than 3 people and the trip can still proceed, the price will be increased.

GROUP SIZE

We only work with small private groups of 3-4 people, this allows us to have a better cohesion while skiing or snowboarding and it allows us to not crowd up the line up at the beach. For the length of the trip you will have one guide that is well experienced in surfing and snowboarding with extensive knowledge of the local coast and mountain terrain. For back country outsourced activities the provider will supply the second guide.

Normally the minimum we need is 3 guests for a group to run, but sometimes we can run a smaller group at the discretion of the guides. If there are less than 3 people in this group, expect that the price will be higher.

MEALS

Surfing The Andes only provides guiding and transportation. Depending on where you stay and the package we find for you, food might be included. We recommend exploring local restaurants so you have more flexibility in menu options and managing your budget. Nevertheless, for guests staying in Hostels and Cabin who are trying to cook at home we can stop by Chillan market for trip produce/grocery shopping. Once in Las Trancas or Cobquecura grocery shopping is limited to small town stores. We intend to explore local restaurants after the snow and surf.
