Andes Majesty: Aconcagua Small Group & BBQ Tour from Mendoza
No address available
Price From $140.00 per person
Lowest Price Guarantee
Group size no more than nine people with breakfast and lunch with wine included. Unlike most other Mendoza agencies we actually enter Aconcagua Park and hike for one hour. An extravagant barbecue lunch with limitless wine is also included. Travel the old Trans-Andean railway via minibus on this 8-hour small-group tour. With your guide, pass the snow-capped Cordón del Plata and stop by the turquoise Potrerillos lake on your way to the mountain town of Uspallata. After passing through Penitentes Ski Resort you’ll reach Aconcagua National Park. On your return back you will have the opportunity to stop and see Puente Del Inca, a naturally formed bridge over a steep ravine. Once in Uspallata you’ll enjoy an afternoon lunch of Argentine asado (local style barbecue - not gourmet) before concluding your tour at approximately at 5:30pm.

Stellar experience overall and the team went out of their way to ensure it. First, our hotel was outside the city center but they offered pickup anyway and that was so kind of we later learned that the owner himself (Charlie) was the one who did it. What an impressive commitment to customer service. Beyond that, Pablo and Wally did a great job leading our day out into the mountains. We were all disappointed we couldn’t go on the “long hike” in Aconcagua, but this was outside of their control. The drives were long, but really informative and Pablo did a great job on keeping the pulse of the group for what to share. Definitely recommend!

Trout and Wine Tours has been hands down the best tour company I have ever worked with! This specific tour was well thought out. The vehicle we were driven in was very comfortable. Puablo, our guide, was very informative. Wallet, the driver navigated the road to Aconcagua very well. The food was delicious! The mountain very impressive!

I had an excellent tour with Valeria & Walid! We had beautiful weather throughout and were able to clearly see Aconcagua, a condor, and the Incan bridge. This was followed-up by an excellent Asado lunch and a relaxing ride back to Mendoza. Driving throughout was professional and always safe. The tour narrative was clear, insightful & engaging. Zero issues as an English speaker with a limited Spanish vocabulary.

It was well organized with great pick up and drop off. The route was well organized and hit high lights of areas in the surroundings mountains of Mendoza that you wouldn’t see otherwise. Our guide and driver were great professionals and I enjoyed the trip very much.

First time travelling alone so i searched for a group option but not to big. We went with 7 people from different parts of the world. An enthousiastic guide prepared and informed us along the way. Every part of the day the Andes looked different. What a great experience this was. Highly recommended

Lina and Walter were the perfect hosts for our trip to Aconcagua, knowledgeable and really good fun. Wonderful Asado barbecue lunch, delicious 😋 We would thoroughly recommend this Trout and Wine tour from Mendoza.

This was an excellent trip. Each location was quite different and on the way the rock formations were incredible. Our guide, Victoria was very knowledgeable each location and also pointed out interesting things along the journey. The tour group spoke Spanish and English and Victoria made sure we all had the same information. She also translated questions from the other group members and helped us to chat with them, especially over lunch . The whole day was very relaxed. This was the best trip we’ve done in Argentina, I would thoroughly recommend it and would do a trip with Trout and Wine again if I was in the region.

Although the weather did not cooperate for our trip to Aconcagua or the Inca Bridge, Trout &Wine had a back of plan that was also wonderful--going to a beautiful vineyard for an amazing lunch and wine tasting. In addition, they did a great job of communicating with us before the trip and then keeping us informed of itinerary updates while on route. Our guide and driver were also excellent, patient and super informative. We will have to come back another time to try the Aconcagua Tour with Trout & Wine!

Ezekiel was an excellent guide and we thoroughly enjoyed this trip! The landscapes and scenery are out of this world and Ezekiel explained everything thoroughly whilst being a really fun guide. We also very much enjoyed the delicious lunch - Parrilla meats and local red wines aplenty!
