Your ski lesson isn’t pre-booked so all the morning slots were booked up when we got there. The ski lesson and time on the slope was amazing. Also, private transfer in a comfortable car.

After the market, which included picking up our freshly caught and fillet fish, we took an uber to the kitchen. Once inside we got to work. The view was amazing and such a beautiful place to learn about Chilean food. Andy was great with our kids as we let them do most of the work.
