It was very well...

It was very well organised. The tour lady provided me with personal translation as I was the only person on the trip that didn’t speak Spanish.

Muy confortable el minibús, el chofer muy responsable y con experiencia. Nos tocó el guía Germán, excelente.

Péssima experiência, não vale a pena.

BrenoVinicius_R, Aug 2026
Apesar da guia ser extremamente simpática, a mesma nos levou pra alugar roupas pra neve no pior lugar possível, roupas muito ruins, aparências de velhas, parecíamos entregadores de lanches, o lugar era MUITO RUIM, MUITO RUIM MESMO. Existiam outras lojas com roupas e materiais muito melhores, mas essa que fomos era sem dúvida a pior, péssima experiência, além do que era extremamente cara, absurdamente cara para um material de péssima qualidade. Além disso, a comida que serviam era de péssima qualidade, vimos pelas expressões dos clientes, optamos por não comer. Quanto ao local da neve, demoramos mais tempo pra chegar, escolher e pagar caro para uma roupa horrível a ficar no local do evento, ficamos no máximo uma hora e a guia já estava chamando pra ir embora, ou seja, péssimo. Nota 1, ainda estou sendo generoso, o q salvou foi o motorista do ônibus que era muito maneiro.

Passeio que vale muito!

Passeio deslumbrante! O guia bem informado e com muitas histórias pra contar. A parada do café é perfeita. Já a parada do almoço é bem diferente, comida de bom sabor, porém cara e ambiente bem simples. O motorista da van correu um pouco na volta, empresa Grupo Sur

Excelente Experiencia

El mejor tour que puedes hacer estando en la ciudad de Mendoza. Te llevan a pasar el día rodeada de montañas. Paisajes realmente hermosos. El guía Daniel es muy cordial, atento, explica todo con mucha claridad y se nota que tiene muchísima preparación. Nos pareció excelente todo.

La mejor experiencia....
