Buenos Aires & Mendoza’s Wine Country

Arrive in Buenos Aires & Welcome Dinner

Upon arrival, your private chauffeur will meet you at the airport to transfer you to your hotel. The rest of the day will be at leisure.

In the evening, we will enjoy an interactive culinary experience where we will taste the best local cuisine in a 5-course welcome dinner, paired with four exceptional wines from all regions. You will learn how to make the famous “empanadas”, the traditions surrounding Mate Argentino, alfajores, and much more!

Historic Buenos Aires

Begin your journey in La Boca, a neighborhood renowned for its colorful houses and tango heritage. As you walk along Caminito, the main street, you’ll be greeted by an explosion of hues from every direction. This neighborhood was once home to Italian immigrants who used leftover paint from ships to adorn their houses, creating a visual spectacle that has become an iconic symbol of Buenos Aires.

As you venture further into San Telmo, you’ll step back in time to the city’s colonial era. This neighborhood’s cobblestone streets and well-preserved colonial buildings exude a nostalgic charm. Plaza Dorrego, the heart of San Telmo, is a bustling square where locals and visitors gather to enjoy street performances and artisanal markets. The evening will be at leisure.

Estancia Experience

After breakfast, your driver will take you to experience a real Argentine estancia. You will enjoy a stay in the Buenos Aires countryside, where you will delight yourself with different traditional Argentinian meals, such as empanadas, asado (barbecue) and pastries at snack time.

Experience a “día de campo” (day in the countryside) where you’ll have the chance to ride horses, enjoy dances and music by the locals, go cycling or engage in one of the other numerous activities on offer at the estancia.

Recoleta & Palermo · Wine Tasting at an Art Gallery

Today you will enjoy a private guided tour through the most famous neighborhoods in Buenos Aires: Recoleta and Palermo. We’ll start by exploring Palermo, a trendy and eclectic neighborhood known for its street art, cafes, and boutiques. Next, we’ll head to Recoleta, known for its European-style architecture and cultural attractions, visiting the Floralis Genérica — the stunning metal flower that opens and closes its petals with the time of day — and the Recoleta cemetery, resting place of many of Argentina’s most famous citizens, including Eva Perón. A visit to El Ateneo Grand Splendid, a former theater turned bookstore, is a must-see.

In the afternoon, you will experience a local metal artist’s workshop and immerse yourself in the stories that turned Eva Perón into the most widely known female figure in Argentine history — witnessing the making and detail behind 120 pieces of jewelry produced for the world-famous Evita musical on Broadway.

Tigre & Delta Navigation

After breakfast, meet your private guide and chauffeur in the hotel lobby. Upon arrival in Tigre, enjoy a sightseeing tour with your guide, getting to know this enchanting destination that offers a unique combination of serene rivers, lush vegetation and charming canals.

For lunch, we have the best experience prepared for you: a secluded table on an island. The evening will be at leisure to explore the island.

Mendoza, the Wine Region

Optional activity: embark on a breathtaking helicopter ride through the enchanting wineries of Mendoza. As you soar through the skies, a panorama of rolling vineyards and majestic mountains unfolds before your eyes, with captivating views of the snow-capped peaks of the Andes. The afternoon will be at leisure to enjoy cycling through the vineyard, a spa treatment, or simply relaxing with incredible views and a glass of wine.

Unlock the Secrets of Wine Blending

Prepare yourself for an exciting and educational day of grape blending and wine creation! Arrive at a contemporary winery nestled in the heart of wine country, where the sommelier welcomes you with a brief introduction to the day. Stroll through the vineyard discovering the various grape varietals, and learn about the influence of terroir, climate, and soil composition on the grapes’ flavors and characteristics.

Afterwards, a private table will be booked in a modern winery for a seven-course fine lunch paired with the best wines.

Become a Masterchef!

In the morning, your private chauffeur will meet you at the lobby for your transfer to the Luján de Cuyo region. Indulge your taste buds with a private cooking class set amidst the charming ambiance of a boutique local winery, nestled among rolling vineyards and picturesque landscapes.

Under the guidance of expert chefs, you’ll discover the secrets behind crafting the perfect empanadas — the dough preparations, the art of rolling, and the various fillings that give each empanada its unique flavor. As they bake to perfection, settle into a cozy dining area and pair your creations with the winery’s finest wines. A five-course lunch will be served in the winery, and the rest of the day will be at leisure.
