Not premium wines. Not at all

Dino_S, Aug 2025

The wines are not premium. Not by a long shot. When I see premium, that means the wines are worth more than $5 to $10 USD. Was poor

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Dino, thank you for your review. It helps us grow and improve our service. We work with authentic wines produced by traditional wineries in the different wine-producing regions of Argentina. We're sorry you didn't enjoy your experience. Best regards!

Not as Advertised and Not in a Good Way

Where to start? The tour was advertised as being in a bar with pictures of a cozy, attractive candle lit venue. The location was actually in a drab, barely decorated apartment that featured a heavy smell of cooking grease that clung to our clothes & hair and that was usually used as an Airbnb. It was advertised that we would sample 5 wines, we were served 3 wines which our hostess told us cost @ US$ 8 a piece, one of which was undrinkable. It was advertised that we would be served an assortment of tapas. We shared a 6” dia plate of bland cheese, green olives and peanuts with another couple. Our “somenolier” knew very little about wine, started us on the heartiest wine first and move to the white, undrinkable wine; stated that the grapes are harvested in the spring and could not name any other varietals than the ones we were tasting. My guess is she read a Wikipedia article minutes before we arrived. However the hostess was pleasant, shared information about the way wine was shared by locals. This was a complete rip-off. It cost the company about US$ 24 for the wine and maybe a couple of dollars for the “tapas” for a group of 4 who paid US $ 110/ couple. This was my first and last Viatour tour. The ads cannot be trusted, you have idea what you are actually signing up for. I am an experienced traveler and would normally arrange something like this on my own but thought I’d give Viatour a try, my mistake.

Hola Barbara, thank you for your review. We are sorry that you did not like it. The place where the experience takes place is an appartment in one of the best areas of Palermo. It is almost a private experience, you did it with other couple. The wines are the best in Argentina. We are sorry that you did not enjoy the experience. Thank you, Alfredo
