Today you'll arrive to Mendoza by bus or by plane. You'll experience immediately the warmth and open-armed atmosphere. After arriving at your hotel, we suggest asking for a map at reception and strolling through the town. Some of our recommendations include walking on the Paseo Sarmiento, stopping in the pedestrian area for a glass of Malbec, the Monument of San Martin and Avenida Aristides for a nice Argentine meal.  Hotel Mendoza* *or similar

After breakfast, you'll head to the lobby to meet your driver. Today you'll get to experience Argentina's wine culture. Through the 20-minute drive toward the Andes, you'll get an incredible view of fields of sunflowers at the foothills of the Andes, with Mount Aconcagua - the highest mountain in South America - on display. Equilly impressive are the endless vineyards in view. Luján de Cuyo consists of many traditionally-run wineries, many which have expanded to restaurants or hotels with accompanying wine cellars. On our tour of Luján de Cuyo we will visit three different wineries, where you can witness the production of wines first-hand. Of course, no wine tour is complete without wine tasting! You will be invited throughout to sample the various wines at the three wineries. At the last winery, you can even enjoy an Andean lunch at their onsite restaurant with scenic views (lunch not included). In the afternoon you will be transferred back to your hotel in Mendoza, where you are free for the evening. Hotel Mendoza*      Breakfast *or similar
