Mendoza has hundreds of wineries (bodegas), scores of restaurants, a dynamic
art and cultural scene and, in the nearby Andes, some of the planet’s
most stunning mountain scenery. Although Mendoza is famous for its outstanding wines, you’ll find a tremendously varied host of other interesting things to do and explore while in this congenial city, with its Euro-style outdoor cafes, walkstreets, and other cultural activities.
Architecturally impressive new wineries, traditional hacienda-style wineries,
tastings of the most garlanded wines and the best value wines… dining
in the most elegant and most typical restaurants and on privately catered gourmet
meals….meeting top local artists…and supreme vistas of the
snow-capped Andes--these are the tastes of Mendoza that await you.
To make sure you get the best, we carefully plan and arrange winery appointments, special tastings and meals and every other detail in advance. We personally visit every venue in advance to do our best so that you won't be disappointed. This tour is for travelers who want to experience the best of what Mendoza has to offer.
You’ll stay at our Posada de Rosas, a small boutique inn that’s walking distance from Mendoza’s main square, parks, restaurants and shopping. There you’ll enjoy the personal service and comfortable local ambience—ranging from a fresh rose in your room to the garden, pool and terrace with the Argentine barbeque and grape arbor overhead. Our location is ideal for exploring what Mendoza City has to offer--restaurants, cafes, music, etc. Many types of daytrips to the country can be conveniently arranged from the posada, so you can experience the countryside as well, if that's what you choose. See pictures of the Posada at this link.
