Go with a good appetite, so many variety of meats, take just a little so you can make it to the end! Loved the lamb, filet mignon, garlic beef the best. Even saved room for dessert and left feeling very satisfied

MY wife and I, along with another couple spent 4 amazing days in 2017 with Flor, Stephane and all the wonderful hosts. We spent days sightseeing, tasting wine and local food, horseback riding in the Andes and more! We brought home so much wine! The pricing on the wine and everything else was amazing. Each host was generous, helpful and sharing. We wanted so badly to stay longer, but we intend to return for more some day!

Not worth it, I'm afraid. Too expensive to get to see just one of the glaciers, the Spegazzini one. (The Upsala glacier can only be seen from afar, as it's deemed too risky to approach). The journey was too long and quite uncomfortable (the ferry I took was the Quo Vadis). Too many people travelling. The ferry was 80% full in Covid times, which I found unsensible and irresponsible. We could not choose where to sit or change seats afterwards. The Spegazzini refuge is partly open. You can take a (rather short) walk in the woods, but the café/restaurant/toilet area is (still) closed and looks quite derelict. I've taken other tours in the area (Perito Moreno Glacier/ Canal Beagle/Full day at Chalten) and they were less expensive, better organised and far more enjoyable than this one.

This was a private tour with my wife. We had a very nice car and driver pick us up on time and drove safely. We had local guide 'Soli' who is also a sommelier as our guide. She had great knowledge of the region, its wines, wine making and food. This gave us a chance to chat on the way to the valley and better understand what the Uco Valley can offer. We visited 3 wineries, each very different. The first was Super Uco, it is a small winery with very innovative/experimental wine making and growing styles. Next we visited a small family winery, Family Zania. This very small batch family winery was so much fun tasting and ate some food they prepared fresh to keep us going. The wine maker very passionate and his wines and methods innovative with some great results. We then moved for lunch to a mid size french winery and restaurant, Domaine Bousquet. It offered a nice tour, and nicely paired wines with lunch. (i think 5 courses) All very nice and generous. I would recommend this tour for someone that wants to experience the range of offerings from Uco away from the big brands and not just Malbec varietals.

I absolutely loved my tour with Marcelo. He was very knowledgeable, he grew up in this region and had tons of things to share. We thoroughly enjoyed his company. As for the three wineries we visited, I fell in love with all of them. Everything went way beyond my expectations. I highly recommend you book them and try it out for yourself.

We loved our private gourmet experience in Mendoza and Chile with Mendoza Holidays. We created a custom itinerary visiting Colchagua, Casablanca, Uco Valley and Lujan de Cuyo regions. The company worked with us to create this custom itinerary and provided his top guide. Really enjoyed the wine tours, one of the highlights of our 2 weeks in South America. The food and wine selections were amazing, and the views were out of this world. It was excellent, every aspect. Not inexpensive, but highest class and best customer service one could ask for. 10 out of 10, we would recommend this company!

Usually don’t write reviews but by far the best tour we had in Mendoza. Booked a last minute tour as out flight was late. We visited three wineries and the owner Fede was the driver and guide. Brand new comfortable pick up. First we visited a smaller winery that specializes in white but did also have some great reds. Second winery was Acheval Ferrer, one of the best wineries in Mendoza in my opinion. Great experience and beautiful place. To last, we went to El Enemigo and had a superb luch and wine tasting. Fede is well recognized in the industry and we got to meet Alejandro Vigil. Even got a few signed bottles! Thank you so much Fede for an amazing tour.
