It was very well...
It was very well organised. The tour lady provided me with personal translation as I was the only person on the trip that didn’t speak Spanish.

Very comfortable the...
The minibus was very comfortable, the driver was very responsible and experienced. We had Germán as our guide, excellent.
L
it's worth it for the scenery
The landscape is too beautiful, the guide and driver were polite, but Mendoza Viajes, in the 2 tours I took, are not punctual. The second negative point is that they don't describe where we are going to stop, they warn to buy clothes for the snow because we will get our pants wet, which is not true, only boots are necessary if you are well dressed. The lunch was terrible, and one of the stops was to sell very poor quality wine and chocolate. Could you shorten the tour by removing the shopping stops?
B
Terrible experience, not worth it.
Despite the guide being extremely nice, she took us to rent snow clothes in the worst possible place, very bad clothes, looking like old people, we looked like snack delivery guys, the place was VERY BAD, REALLY VERY BAD. There were other stores with much better clothes and materials, but this one we went to was undoubtedly the worst, a terrible experience, besides being extremely expensive, absurdly expensive for a low-quality material. Furthermore, the food they served was of very poor quality; we saw it from the customers' expressions, so we opted not to eat. Regarding the snow location, we took longer to arrive, choose, and pay dearly for a horrible outfit to stay at the event location, we were there for a maximum of an hour and the guide was already calling to leave, meaning it was terrible. Note 1, I'm still being generous, what saved it was the bus driver who was very cool.

Travel of Dreams
Wonderful experience, we were lucky for this year to have broken snow record

Tour that is worth a lot!
Stunning walk! The well-informed guide and with many stories to tell. The coffee stop is perfect. The lunch stop is quite different, food of good taste, but expensive and simple environment. The van driver ran a little around, company Group Sur
A
Excellent Experience
Excellent experience, the trip is beautiful. Very very kind and good vibes the boys. Luis the driver, Lucas the photographer and Agustina the guide. Highly recommended as it also had a discount for children under 11.
C
Faced with adversity...
Faced with the weather adversities, the guide and the driver were solicitous with good decisions. Its very good human quality
G
Excellent scenery very nice tour excellent the company of very good tourism
Do not eat heavy as height complicates digestion. Condensers take a pill for heights. When I get to the hotel, I have a hard time eating too much. The road is yours. And you go jump all the time.
G
Wonderful.
Excellent tour. We had the opportunity to appreciate and know iconic places in the province. Highly recommended this excursion!
