Detailed Description

South America is quickly becoming one of the finest destinations for wine tourism in the world, with beautiful scenery, unmatched weather, and locals who are as friendly as they are fiercely proud of their homeland. This 10-day Buenos Aires, Mendoza and Santiago wine tour gives you the chance to explore every square inch of Chile and Argentina’s up-and-coming wine regions. You will also discover the many other cultural hotspots that make these two countries some of the most popular tourist destinations around the globe.

Begin in Buenos Aires, the “Paris of South America,” where the tree-lined streets and high-end shopping of Palermo and Recoleta contrast brilliantly with the multicolored storefronts and vibrant scenes of La Boca. Then turn towards the ponderous Andes and the wonderful city of Mendoza, the largest wine-producing region in Latin America and home to some of the prettiest and most fascinating vineyards and wineries on the continent. Finish in Chile, where the streets of Santiago are filled with the dulcet tones issuing forth from the city’s many jazz clubs, and where the exquisite edifices of Valparaiso and Viña del Mar offer a spectacular front to the ceaseless activity of the mighty Pacific Ocean. And, of course, spend a day in Chile’s Central Valley, the newest hotbed for oenophiles, where the Cabernets and Chardonnays (as well as famous Chilean Carmeneres) rival those of Napa and France and where the scenery is unmatched by either.

This is a trip dedicated to your gourmet side, that part of you that loves nothing more than an exquisite meal and sumptuous wine, that enjoys the hustle and bustle of a big city as much as the calm and serenity of a countryside resort, and that is always looking for another adventure. The culture is captivating, the people personable, the wine wonderful and the scenery spectacular: with all this and more waiting for you in the heart of the Southern Cone, there’s never been a better time to visit.
