Internship at Tandem - Praktikum bei Tandem Santiago
Spanish and Ski
If you have ever dreamt of skiing under the wings of the Andean Condor, we can help you to realize your dream. We offer several options combining our Spanish courses with the possibility of skiing in the ski resorts near Santiago.
The options B-D include Spanish Course, enrolment fee, the Door-to-door transportation from Santiago to the ski resort and back. The rental of equipment - skies, boots and sticks as lift tickets for the three possible Ski Centres La Parva, Farellones/El Colorado and Valle Nevado, is not included. The options A 
and B offer the possibility to visit each day a different area. The price for a Lift ticket is US$63-69 on weekends and during high season from 07th July to 15th of august for a day and US$49-60 for 1/2 day. During the week in the other month US$47-52 for full day and US$42-44 for 1/2 day, depending on the Ski Centre. The additional daily return shuttles from your lodging to the ski centres is US$30.

For advanced skiers we recommend to take the Interconnection ticket La Parva/ Valle Nevado. For additional US$23-25/day you can ski from one area to the other, which makes your skiing area larger! Those who take lodging in Farellones and want to ski in Valle Nevado have to take the Interconnection ticket, because of the lack of public transportation from Farellones to Valle Nevado.
We now also offer an all inclusive Package at the Portillo Ski Center, which lies on the international Route to Mendoza next to the border. This internationally famous Resort has a spectacular setting above the Laguna del Inca and is offering now attractive prices for young travellers. The Backpackers lodge has 4 beds and shared bathrooms and permits the guests to make use of the luxurious Hotel facilities like the pool, the gym and the Jacuzzi. This package does include the transport to Portillo but not the ski equipment rental. See Info Packages!
