Our day concludes at Sotomayor Square, where the grandeur of the Navy building and the War of the Pacific monument stand as proud testaments to Chile’s maritime legacy. In the evening, we return to Santiago for a restful night.

Today’s adventure takes us into the heart of the Andes, following the scenic Inter-American Highway before joining the international route that connects Chile with Argentina. Along the way, breathtaking mountain landscapes unfold, leading us to Portillo, a legendary winter sports destination perched at 2,680 meters (8,793 ft) above sea level. With a history spanning over 75 years, this renowned resort has hosted elite Olympic teams and welcomed millions of visitors drawn to its pristine slopes and spectacular scenery. Depending on the season, we will have time to enjoy winter sports or take in the beauty of the Andean trails and the serene glacial lakes and lagoons that have inspired local legends.

As the day winds down, we return to Santiago, where a delightful evening and a restful night await.
