"You have to let prospective tour guests know how incredible the food, nightlife and cultural experience is down here!"
 
Sure, we know you are here for the powder, but hey, you can ski dozens of countries. What makes our trips so memorable, aside from the powder skiing in August, are the locals, their culture, and perhaps some of the best food and red wine on Earth.
 
PowderQuest guests say they have eaten some of the best meals of their lives with us! Throw in our guide’s wine selection included with your dinners, and you will not be disappointed.
 
Local cuisine includes homemade breads, empanadas, seafood, including Chilean sea bass, hand made chocolates, and of course Argentina’s world renowned beef.
 
Vegetarian? No worries, Argentina and Chile have some of the freshest fruit and vegetables on the planet.

Some of the best experiences in foreign adventure travel come from local culture. We get you deep into the Andes where we not only meet, but also spend quality time with the locals.

From the Mapuche Indians, curious school children in Bariloche, and farmers of the Chilean Lake District, to the stoked local powder hounds, smiling faces of Las Lenas, and friends of PowderQuest, we give you the opportunity to practice Spanish and see what life is like through local eyes.
 

You will return home with a new outlook on the world and are sure to leave with an indelible impression of these unique mountain cultures.

Whether you prefer learning to dance Tango in Mendoza or take a historic city tour of Buenos Aires and Santiago with local wine tasting or you prefer starting out with a cold local beer at Apres Ski, hitting a night club, trying your luck at the local casino and dancing until dawn in South America's massive discotheques, The Andes offers evening entertainment for everyone.
 
If weather keeps us off the mountain, we have numerous options for you to explore! Chile and Argentina offer excellent class-4 whitewater rafting, horseback riding, hiking and snowshoeing in the national parks, natural hot springs, mountain biking, volcanic caving and more.

All of these activites are included on your adventure with PowderQuest!
 
If you feel like it, take advantage of the down day to relax the legs, spend the day shopping, in the spa, or simply sleeping in!
