Highly recommended - Excellent experience! Very good organization; They prioritize that you can make all the stops (it depends on the weather conditions and road conditions). Friendly and knowledgeable staff; You know the history of the province, its geographical features and its local fauna. Highly recommended, Gastón and Ana are geniuses! I would choose this agency again for other excursions without hesitation.

Perfect tour - The tour was just perfect. The agency was always available to answer questions. A special compliment to the guide Romina, who was very attentive, helpful, and always concerned about everyone's well-being and safety from the beginning to the end of the tour. A compliment also to the driver who unfortunately I don't remember his name now, but took the tour on 05/21/24. Always paying attention to the road, we didn't have any scares. Anyway, everything was just perfect!

Very good transfer from the agency and Ana was great, very attentive, explained everything in a safe and very fun way, we really enjoyed it and I recommend this tour, which is indescribable and the landscapes are phenomenal and will be remembered. The stops were adequate for snacks, photographs and bathroom facilities. Super professional agency, rating 10.

Fantastic adventure in the mountains - The van picks you up at your hotel and in a few hours you are at the foot of the colossal mountains of the Andes, witnessing landscapes that are straight out of paintings and discovering a less explored side of Mendoza. The guide was the dear Ornella, who gave a lesson on the importance of the path that passes through Potrerillos, Uspallata and Las Cuevas in the history of Argentine independence led by Juan de San Martín - in addition to introducing us to the most beautiful views of the Cordillera. We went without any expectations, and we came back with the certainty that it was one of the best tours we've ever done. If you're lucky - like we were - you might get a lot of ice and a lot of snow. Mendoza is not just wineries. Go see the Cordillera up close: it’s spectacular!

The Viaje y Diseño agency of Mendoza is highly recommended!! - Excellent guides on all three Tours. Dolores in the Vineyard Tours. Facu in Alta Montaña and City tour. We loved visiting Mendoza. Its squares and streets are so neat. Beautiful places for lunch and breakfast. It is a very safe city. We enjoyed a play at the Julio Le Parc Cultural Center.

Caution no movement - Phenomenal guide and driver (sel and ale), but the concept of the tour is hard to understand. You don't have time to enjoy the surroundings and go for a walk. It would be nice to stop at least once on a path for that. Nice day nonetheless.
