Group size no more than nine people with breakfast and lunch with wine included. Unlike most other Mendoza agencies we actually enter Aconcagua Park and hike for one hour. An extravagant barbecue lunch with limitless wine is also included. Travel the old Trans-Andean railway via minibus on this 8-hour small-group tour. With your guide, pass the snow-capped Cordón del Plata and stop by the turquoise Potrerillos lake on your way to the mountain town of Uspallata. After passing through Penitentes Ski Resort you’ll reach Aconcagua National Park. On your return back you will have the opportunity to stop and see Puente Del Inca, a naturally formed bridge over a steep ravine. Once in Uspallata you’ll enjoy an afternoon lunch of Argentine asado (local style barbecue - not gourmet) before concluding your tour at approximately at 5:30pm.

Although the weather did not cooperate for our trip to Aconcagua or the Inca Bridge, Trout &Wine had a back of plan that was also wonderful--going to a beautiful vineyard for an amazing lunch and wine tasting. In addition, they did a great job of communicating with us before the trip and then keeping us informed of itinerary updates while on route. Our guide and driver were also excellent, patient and super informative. We will have to come back another time to try the Aconcagua Tour with Trout & Wine!
So glad we did it!

Ezekiel was an excellent guide and we thoroughly enjoyed this trip! The landscapes and scenery are out of this world and Ezekiel explained everything thoroughly whilst being a really fun guide. We also very much enjoyed the delicious lunch - Parrilla meats and local red wines aplenty!
Excellent

Impermeable! The landscape is stunning, the guide Pablo is super attentive, talked about the history of the mountains, the routes, the city of Mendoza. The delicious stops, cafetaria and restaurant included are of great quality and the driver Diego very professional as well. I recommend.

The experience was the best I could ever expect. The tour guide was Exequiel Quiroga and the driver was Diego. Best team ever! A pickup 4x4 picked my wife and I at the hotel and drove through the Andes until Aconcagua Park. We had a stop after an hour and a half to have a coffee and eat some medialuna at a delightful, clean and delicious cafe (keeping in mind is a tough way, so you don’t have many shops and cafes). Then we drove a bit more until a village where we could see a beautiful view and shop some winter clothes, souvenirs and use the bathroom, then, we’ve been to the park. The guide was amazing. During the entire journey, and then at the park, he told about the history of Mendoza, the road, strategic spots, the Andes, military campaigns, Inca’s camping’s, and much more. Back to Mendoza, we had a lunch at an amazing restaurant with Parriladas, wine and desert. All great! Coming back, as a courtesy, he stopped at a spot where we could see an Inca construction and the river. I definitely wanna go back and do it again in summer.
