Package holiday to Mendoza

Mendoza is Argentina's wine capital and the birthplace of Malbec — the grape variety that has put Argentine wine on the world map. The city, at the foot of the Andes, with the highest mountain in the Western Hemisphere (Aconcagua, 6,961 m) as a backdrop, combines wine enjoyment with outdoor adventures and a lifestyle that brings together the best of both worlds.

The wine regions around Mendoza — Maipú, Luján de Cuyo, and the Uco Valley — are home to over 1,200 wineries, ranging from historic family-run businesses to ultra-modern architectural temples. The Malbec, originally from France, has found its perfect expression in Mendoza's high altitude (800-1,500 m), intense sun, and dry air — deep dark, velvety, and with a fruit intensity that is unmatched.

The Uco Valley, an hour south of the city, is the emerging wine area and one of the most exciting wine regions in the world. Wineries like Zuccardi Valle de Uco (multiple times voted the best winery in the world), Salentein, and The Vines of Mendoza offer tastings against the stunning backdrop of snow-capped Andean peaks.

The adventure begins where the vineyards end. The Aconcagua Provincial Park offers trekking to the base camp of the highest mountain in the Americas, Ruta 7 (Pan-American Highway) winds over the Paso de los Libertadores to Chile, and in winter, the ski resorts Las Leñas and Los Penitentes transform into South America's best ski areas.

Rafting on the Río Mendoza, horseback riding in the foothills of the Andes, and mountain biking through vineyards complement the outdoor program. Mendoza is a place where you can hike on a glacier in the morning and enjoy the sunset over the vineyards with a Malbec and a perfect asado in the evening.

The city itself is characterized by wide, plane tree-shaded avenues, lively plazas, and a restaurant scene that combines Argentina's love for steak with global wine culture. The parrilla (grill restaurant) Francis Mallmann and the winery restaurants offer world-class culinary experiences.

Mendoza particularly impresses with breathtaking nature, excellent cuisine. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
