Prices are per person, from, for the 2026 to 2027 season. Per day is a comparison aid, not how the trip is billed. Every itinerary is tailor-made and quoted individually.

Two roads out of Mendoza, and they go opposite ways

West on Ruta 7 the Alta Montaña climbs to the Chilean border in a single day, through Potrerillos and Uspallata and past Puente del Inca. North on Ruta 40 is the long one: days of desert and vineyards all the way up to Salta. One is an excursion you come back from; the other is the whole trip.

Ruta 7, west

Alta Montaña in a day

Out through Potrerillos and Uspallata to Puente del Inca and the pass, with Aconcagua in view from the road. It is a long day out of the city and back, and it is the drive almost everyone means when they say road trip in Mendoza.

There and back

Ruta 40, north

Days, not hours

Mendoza to Salta is the classic north to south run: high desert, wine at both ends and very little in between. It only works as a one way, flying home from whichever end you finish at.

One way, flying back

Crossing to Chile

The pass shuts in winter

Paso Los Libertadores sits above 3.000 metres and closes with snow, sometimes for days at a time between June and September. Any itinerary that crosses needs slack built into it.

Check before you commit

The walking those roads lead to is at Mendoza hiking and trekking, the northern end of Ruta 40 at Salta road trips, and the rest of the region at Mendoza tours.

Mendoza Road Trips FAQ's

Key stops include the Uco Valley for its stunning vineyards and world-class wineries, the historic city of Mendoza for cultural sights, and the scenic route to the Andes Mountains for breathtaking views. Don't miss the charming town of Maipú, known for its vineyards and olive groves.

For most routes, a standard vehicle is sufficient. However, if you plan to explore more rugged terrain in the Andes, a vehicle with higher ground clearance or 4WD might be advisable for a smoother and safer journey.

Both options are available. Guided tours can offer the convenience of a planned itinerary and insights from local guides, while self-planned trips provide more flexibility to explore at your own pace. Consider your comfort with navigating foreign roads when deciding.

A road trip in Mendoza can be tailored to any length, but a 3 to 5-day trip is ideal to cover the main attractions without rushing. This gives you enough time to enjoy wine tastings, scenic drives, and local cuisine.

Spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) are the best times for a road trip in Mendoza. The weather is pleasant, and the landscapes are particularly beautiful, with vineyards either blooming or ready for harvest.

What Your Mendoza Trip Includes

Every quote we send lists this in writing, trip by trip. As a rule, this is how a Mendoza package is built.

Included

In every package

Hotels selected and checked by our team; private transfers between airports, hotels and excursions; excursions with English-speaking local guides; tasting fees at the wineries listed in your itinerary, and park entrance fees where the route includes them; daily breakfast and the meals marked day by day; a local WhatsApp support line for the whole trip.

Not included

Said upfront

International flights to and from Argentina; travel insurance; meals not marked in the itinerary; personal expenses and gratuities; optional activities, which we price in writing beforehand. The Buenos Aires to Mendoza flight is quoted separately or included depending on the package, and your quote states which, with the amount, so the total is clear before you book.

If the mountain road closes, the day moves to the valley

The high Andes pass and the Aconcagua road close with snow in winter and after storms. When that happens we bring your Uco Valley or Luján de Cuyo day forward and keep the mountain for the next clear morning. Wherever the schedule allows, we rebook the highlight inside your trip at no extra cost.
