Due to its perennial sunshine and its proximity to the Andes Mountains, the Mendoza River Valley is an excellent place to get outdoors, explore Argentina’s Andean Mountains, and taste some of its finest red wines. This Mendoza wine tour includes your choice of soft adventure activities.

Today, get to know Argentina's wine country on a 3-hour Mendoza city tour! This tour will include visits to Alameda, the Civic Center, the downtown area, the San Martín General Park, the Hill of Glory (Cerro de la Gloria), Mundialista Stadium and the Frank Romero Day Amphitheater, where the annual Mendoza Vendimia Wine Festival is held.

Day 3

After an early breakfast in your hotel, begin a full-day excursion through Mendoza's world-famous wine region with a winery tour and lunch. First meet an expert oenologist, who will be your guide for the day. Visit two wineries, including a full tour of the cellar, processing facilities, and vineyards. Learn about the wine-making process in detail, and then sit back and enjoy the beautiful winery with a delicious lunch and winetasting. Continue on to the next winery for a tasting of different varietals. As the sun sets behind the Andes Mountains, return to the hotel and spend the rest of the evening at your leisure.

Rows of green crops grow in the foreground, perfect for a Mendoza Wine adventure. Behind them stand leafless trees, with snow-capped mountains rising under a clear blue sky.

After another early start, spend this day of your Mendoza Wine Tour in the nearby Valle de Uco. This high-altitude valley, tucked in the foothills of the Andes, boasts several more world-class wineries in the Mendoza region. Visit two wineries today, including wine tasting and a gourmet lunch. In the late afternoon, transfer to the Posada Salentein in the Valle de Uco countryside. You may want to spend your free time on an optional horseback riding tour or bicycle ride through the wineries. There are several optional tours available to travelers on a Mendoza Wine Tour. Spend the evening at your leisure.
