Itinerary

Upon arrival in Mendoza, our team will meet you at the bus station or at the airport and take the whole family to the selected hotel. This day will be for unpacking and free time to explore the surroundings.

On the second day of your trip, we will pick you up in the morning to start this exclusive family tour with didactic and entertaining talks during the trip to the winery. Upon arrival, before diving into our cooking class, adults will be able to tour the winery and taste some of the most outstanding labels. Meanwhile, the little ones will enjoy games and activities in the gardens, with the assistance of a dedicated companion to ensure their enjoyment. Once at the restaurant, they will be welcomed by the chef and his team, who will guide them on this fascinating journey through the flavors, aromas and sensations characteristic of Mendoza. Between laughter and games, they will learn how to knead "tortitas" from Mendoza, "empanadas criollas" and will learn about the techniques for cooking Argentinian meat. The creativity of the little ones will be displayed in the creation of each dish that we will then share as a family.

Horseback riding in the foothills of the Andes is an experience that has the perfect rhythm to appreciate every corner of the mountain, to know its flora and fauna, to refresh yourself in the rivers and to appreciate the most beautiful landscapes you will ever see. This day we will live the experience as a family, with a horseback ride adapted for children. We will be accompanied by expert local gauchos with all the necessary equipment to make it a safe excursion, but no less fun. We will ride along the mountain trails learning about the nature, geology and traditions of the region. On the way back, we will share a delicious barbecue with the local family.

On the fourth day of your trip, adventure will be the protagonist. We will explore the heart of the Andes with a visit to the Villavicencio Natural Reserve: a refuge that protects the authenticity of the local flora and fauna. With a trip in 4x4 trucks, this nature experience combines adrenaline, mountains and outdoors to offer unforgettable moments for the whole family. Only 50 kilometers from Mendoza and equipped with all safety measures, you will start the tour through the winding road of the Caracoles de Villavicencio, culminating with a regional lunch at the iconic Hotel de la Reserva before returning to the city.

Depending on departure time, we will take you to the airport or bus station, see you soon!

What do you need for this tour?

Essential items

We suggest you to bring these items for personal use to make your excursion perfect:

Small backpack.
Extra mineral water.
Personal care items (lip balm with sunscreen, sunscreen, antibacterial gel/wipes, insect repellent).
Special clothing: comfortable clothing appropriate to the weather forecast and footwear suitable for the activity.

Safety tips: Inform the guide or driver about any illness, allergy or physical restriction. Remember to bring your medication and administration instructions.
