Experience Aconcagua - The logistics operation of 10, meet the agreed schedule both outbound and return. What is breakfast and lunch that is already included in the experience a 10 out of 10. They have vegetarian/vegan menu that is spectacularly rich. The guide Federico ensures that the experience is unique, from musicalization, stories, stops, etc. super cordial and attentive at all times. Marcos the driver a genius on the road. I highly recommend this experience if you are for Mendonza.

Beautiful memory of Aconcagua - With my friends we were in December, we hired the Aconcagua experience, it started with a breakfast at the viewpoint of the Potrerillos Dike as first stop, followed by Puente del Inca and arrival at the Aconcagua National Park, trekking we toured knowing mirror lake followed by a stop for lunch with the Aconcagua in front of us (and a condor that came to greet us). I highlight the organization and source of information of the guide Federico who shared his knowledge throughout the journey (and in a bilingual way). If I advise you to wear a coat and jacket breaks winds because from the beginning until the end the temperatures are very different. I recommend the experience!

High Mountain Mendoza A dream - We did the High Mountain excursion with the company IKATU Travel and the experience was wonderful, we were guided by Ornella who in addition to demonstrating her ability and knowledge made us have a nice experience. We go through all the temperatures, heat in Dique Los Potrerillos and Uspallata, cold in Puente del Inca and snowfall in Las Cuevas...

Tour highlighted by beauty and originality in details that make a difference. - My first time in Mendoza I couldn’t finish so well with this tour to Aconcagua. Apart from Marcos our guide who showed off with history, information and attention to all kinds of details, presented us with a unique moment tasting an exquisite sandwich and a malbec at the foot of the Aconcagua with a luxury company that is the natural landscape of the Andes mountain range. Before we visited Puente del Inca and Potrerillos with their beauties. Just stops and breaks for a tour that starts early and is definitely worth doing.

There's OK. - It bothered me that when indicating where I would be picked up for the excursion, I would be called that morning asking to go the other way (only 3 blocks away) but if you indicate a direction and more traveling alone for security should pass where it was coordinated. On the way back I was left in the corner (something is something) and regarding the excursion at the base of the aconcagua I gladly stayed a little honestly just a few minutes, some photos and I already had in my mind something else perhaps. Bridge of the Inca and Uspallata was very nice. Of course, to go up to Christ go very very warm "only a little camperita" told me and was for much more.
