Top 20 Experiences in Maipu
All Day, Small Group, Luxury Wine Tour with Gourmet Lunch
This is a luxury, small group (nine people) wine tour of Mendoza´s fine wine region. We spend the day visiting the very best wineries (three to four in one day) and trying the best wines in the most beautiful locations. A multiple course gourmet lunch with wine pairings is included. A guide accompanies you throughout the day and gives insights and anecdotes regarding wine and Mendoza. Many of our guides are trained sommeliers or winemakers. The tour is in one language and the wineries and region (Lujan de Cuyo or Uco Valley) differ from day-to-day as there are many amazing places to see. Generally speaking we visit Lujan de Cuyo on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays; and Uco on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Please specify if you want a particular region. Our tours are fun and casual with the focus on exceptional wines, creative food and stunning settings. The wineries we visit differ from day to day but are from a select group of top-quality producers.
