A day coming to heaven.. - Beautiful excursion, the chosen places. Hugo the coordinator was attentive throughout explaining everything. Besides, he had a lot of patience. She was a guide, a photographer and you can tell that what she transmits tastes and likes. Alejandro the driver very good partner too.

Outstanding scenery and commentary - The tour is excellent and takes you up the valley beside the Mendoza river all the way to the snowfields and almost to the Chile border and back. The best stop is the stunning Inca bridge. Views are outstanding and the driver Brian and guide Esteban both excellent with the guide's enthusiasm and love of his country and landscape is obvious and infectious. Recommended highly.

Spectacular experience in the mountains of Mendoza - The views along the way are very nice and the whole trip was very entertaining thanks to the excellent performance of Martin our guide concerned to give us explanations of the places and their history and Darío the driver. We could not reach the Caves because of a problem of a line of trucks stopped at the crossing of Chilean customs. In the rest of the places we were more than enough time to enjoy the scenery take photos and everything without rush.

Great day tour in the snowy Andes - Great tour! Martin, our guide, was incredibly good. He gave us very interesting information and transfered to us his passion for the mountains. The driver was also really good making us feeling safe all day long.

Nice experience in lower-high Andes - The tour was nice but only did half of the stops due to bad weather. And while this is not their fault, they told us that in winter (end of September is still winter season) they only do half of the tour due to bad weather conditions. It would be more honest to say that the winter itinerary only includes half of the stops, as weather usually does not allow crossing to Cuenca. Other than that, it was nice and friendly, Ugo was a good guide providing a wealth of information and the van was new. All in all good value and a day well spent.

Breathtaking - This was my second time in this trip and it was really breathtaking , as It was before. Unfortunatelly, this time we couldn't reach the Aconcágua park due to the intense traffic jam in the road occasioned by the blizzard. So it was a bit frustrating. The last time I joint this trip, the guide used a microphone inside the car to tell us loads of information about the local history and curiosities. This time, the guide didn't use the mic, so sometimes it wasn't possible to understand what she was saying.

We like the Inca Bridge - Good alternative to rest from the wineries. Good pictures of the mountains. The Inca Bridge is very cool. For those who do not know snow, the tour will have an extra charm. But I went in late winter / early spring and the snow was already melting. I reinforce the Recommendation to wear jackets.

Hugo made the tour special - This was a lovely tour , with guide Hugo explaining things in great detail , and visiting a few places on the way to Aconcagua. Slight downsides were the quality of the lunch stop , and also the view of Aconcagua is from reasonably far off (to be expected as this ticket doesn’t include access to Aconcagua park). Otherwise was great !
