Description
I experienced one of Mendoza’s most emblematic routes with the High Mountain Tour, a scenic tour ideal for all ages. This experience is designed to enjoy the most imposing landscapes of the Andes without the need for trekking. The road follows the RN 7, passing through Potrerillos, Uspallata, Puente del Inca, Miador Aconcagua and Las Cuevas, where you will have enough time to take pictures, observe the environment and enjoy nature. Only if the climatic conditions are suitable will we ascend by vehicle to the Christ the Redeemer at 4,200 masl. The experience is accompanied by drivers and guides, renowned for their warmth, knowledge and attention to detail. You will travel in enabled vehicles, ensuring a safe and pleasant day. This tour stands out for being a panoramic, accessible and excellent value for money option, ideal for those who want to know the mountain range without making intense physical efforts.

Unforgettable excursion
We have enjoyed the whole excursion helped by incredible landscapes, Daniel (an excellent and very responsible driver) and Valeria (very friendly, excellent explanations and very attentive to the whole group) , Beyond congratulating them we allow ourselves a comment regarding the music- It would be good if its volume is a little lower and that "softer" themes are chosen that better accompany the contemplation of a unique nature that gives us Mendoza
