Argentina Bike Tour

We’ll set off on our bike tour of Mendoza to discover the celebrity status of the Malbec grape firsthand, cycling the glorious landscapes of Andean foothills. A full 70% of Argentina’s wines are produced in the province of Mendoza. Of these, Malbec is the star. On bike, we’ll meander through these prestigious Lujàn de Cuyo and Uco Valley vineyards, stopping to taste their vintages.

Our entrée into Argentine culture is the city of Mendoza, with its sprawling, green parks and heady aura. We will bicycle out of the city to meet locals inspired by this land – a revolutionary winemaker who put his country on every oenophile’s map, a beer brewer with a worldwide following despite his modest operation, and a trout farmer who invites us to lunch.  Along the way, dine on unrivaled local cuisine and relax in luxury lodges, the Andes ever-beckoning. You will soon discover why Mendoza is listed among the “Great Wine Capitals of the World!”
