Program details
Enjoy a private insider’s tour of the wonderful city of Mendoza and its surroundings. Nestling at the foothills of the Andes, the capital of the district of Mendoza, it is considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in the country, especially famous for its breathtaking landscapes and its robust Malbec wines.
Let this tour take you to all of Mendoza’s main attractions and most famous sites. Begin by stepping into the past as you visit the ancient location where the city was founded in the 16th century. Then take a leap through time back to the present and, passing by its famous shopping mall, lose yourself in the hustle and bustle of its downtown.
You will also see the Civic Centre, inside of which is located the Government House building – the Governor of Mendoza’s office is located on the fourth floor. After that, take a leisurely stroll through the luxuriant General San Martin Park, Mendoza’s main park, as well as its oldest. Discover the Cerro de la Gloria, a little hill upon which stands Mendoza’s most iconic statue, erected in honour to the Army of the Andes.
Last but not least, admire the city’s landmark stadium, which was built for the 1978 World Cup, and the Frank Romero Day Greek Theatre, where every year the central act of the National Grape Harvest Festival takes place, a matter of national pride due to the world-renowned quality of the region’s wines.
