17-day expedition
Designed around step-by-step acclimatisation. Previous experience above 5,000 metres is expected, preferably around 5,500 metres or higher.
Aconcagua expedition planning
Choose the format your altitude history can support
A commercial and logistics gateway for English-speaking climbers, private groups and international partners. Current programmes remain canonical on Mountain Guide.
17 daysthe standard guided format with two reserve days
12 daysrequires recent acclimatisation before arrival
7 daysonly after immediate pre-acclimatisation above 5,500 m
One summit, different risk assumptions
Start with evidence, not the calendar
The shortest itinerary is not an upgraded version of the longest one. Each programme assumes a different recent altitude history. We use the same published qualification logic as Mountain Guide’s current programme pages.
12-day expedition
Not a beginner itinerary. It depends on recent acclimatisation completed immediately before the programme and includes one reserve day.
7-day Blitz
Requires immediate pre-acclimatisation above 5,500 metres. Without fresh acclimatisation, Mountain Guide does not conduct this format.
Private expedition
A dedicated format for an individual party, with the operating scope confirmed for the chosen dates and group.
Premium expedition
A higher-support format whose current inclusions, price and availability are controlled by the canonical product page.
Readiness review
Tell us when you last slept above 5,000 metres, what symptoms occurred and how much time you can realistically reserve.
For partners and private groups
A clear hand-off to the operating team
We can discuss private, corporate and international enquiries in English. Programme facts, dates, prices and contractual conditions are confirmed by Mountain Guide rather than copied into a second catalogue.
- Private group format and target season
- Recent altitude evidence for every participant
- Ground logistics and service boundaries
- Written confirmation of current inclusions
No automatic qualification
A website can screen the obvious mismatch between experience and itinerary. Final participation, health advice and mountain decisions require qualified humans and current conditions.

International and corporate enquiries
Describe the group before asking for a quote
Include target dates, group size, recent sleeping altitude and preferred expedition format. This gives the operating team enough context to respond usefully.
