A beautiful tour of Uco Valley

Suzanne_F, Jan 2026
This was a full day excursion where we went up into the mountains and shown the beauty of the Uco Valley, followed by a visit to two wineries, the second one of which provided an outstanding lunch. Very special thanks to Felipe who was an outstanding guide, extremely knowledgeable and by the end of the day he had helped us fall completely in love with the region.

Absolutely spot on fantastic. We loved the scenic tour of the mountains and the private guide / driver experience. Absolutely to drawer.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Thank you! Yes the Malbec & Mountain tour is an excellent combination of mountains and wine. Also you have the valley to yourself as not many agencies have vehicles suitable for the terrain

Wonderful day tasting wine and exploring the country!

HimateeJ_P, Aug 2022
We had a fabulous time on this trip with Flor as our guide visiting the region and getting to two of the top wineries in the region. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and charming -- clearly a local and a very thoughtful ambassador to this very special wine region. We went to Potrellillo Dam, saw the surrounding area and really appreciated the beauty of the landscape before heading over to two tastings to learn how the climate and topography makes wine in this region so unique and delicious. Lunch at Andeluna was just divine, delicious and super filling -- a top notch spot for a tasting with food pairing. They even accommodated food allergies easily. Everything was super lovely, we had a truly wonderful day. Highly recommend Trout and Wine, they did a wonderful professional job for our group of 5. Tip for others: pack light so you can carry back wine on your lap on a local flight!

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Hi Himate, I'm delighted everything went so well. This tour is a great combination of mountains and wineries. I'll pass on your kind words to Flor. Happy wine touring!
