4 days / 3 nights

Excellent Trip to be taken as an extension of our Chile Trips.

Day 1: Arrival in Mendoza / City Tour

Welcome to Mendoza! Your guide will meet you at the airport and accompany you to your hotel. On your way to your accommodations, explore the city of Mendoza and discover its past in a private city tour lead by your expert local guide. Visit Mendoza’s many highlights including Plaza España, Plaza Italia, Plaza Chile, Plaza San Martin and Plaza Independecia, where many mendocinian festivals take place. Later, stroll the pedestrian street Sarmiento with several shops and cafes where many local people meet at midday, before the “siesta” (typical for Mendoza). Walking along the main street, San Martin, we will get to the old part of the city. Go back in time, exploring the foundational area (Mendoza was founded in 1561 by Pedro del Castillo), and visit the museum.

A major earthquake devastated the original foundational area in 1861, being afterwards rebuilt and moved to the west, where the new Mendoza now sits. The destruction of the city led to the planting of trees and construction of squares give Mendoza the characteristics of an oasis. Passing through the forged iron gates, imported from Scotland for the Centenary, access the vast and beautiful General San Martin Park, the most important oasis and lung of the city of Mendoza. Going up a lovely road next to the zoo access, we will arrive at the Gloria Hill. From there, we can see the Frank Romero Day Amphitheater, where the final show of the Harvest Festival takes place. Your tour will end at your Hotel.
