Description

Discover Mendoza on a walking tour with wine tastings. Explore the historic plaza circuit, stroll along Emilio Civit Avenue, and enjoy a final glass of wine at San Martín Park.
Begin your tour in the heart of Mendoza at Independence Square, the city’s main plaza and cultural center. Learn about Mendoza’s foundation in the 16th century and its complete reconstruction after the devastating 1861 earthquake that reshaped the urban layout into the modern, tree-lined city visitors see today.

Explore the historic plaza circuit surrounding downtown. Each square reflects the European influence that shaped the city in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As you walk between plazas, enjoy guided wine tastings featuring carefully selected Mendoza wines.

Learn the fundamentals of wine tasting, including how to identify aromas, understand terroir, and recognize the unique characteristics that make high-altitude Malbec from Mendoza so distinctive. Discover how climate, irrigation from the Andes snowmelt, and soil composition contribute to the region’s global reputation.

Continue along Emilio Civit Avenue, one of Mendoza’s most elegant and prestigious boulevards. Designed during the city’s golden expansion period, this tree-lined avenue connects downtown with San Martín Park. Historically home to influential families and diplomats, Emilio Civit reflects Mendoza’s European architectural inspiration and refined urban planning. Walking this avenue offers a scenic transition from the historic center to the green oasis of the park.

Conclude your tour at the iconic gates of San Martín Park, one of Argentina’s most important urban parks and a symbol of Mendoza. Surrounded by century-old trees and wide open spaces, enjoy a final glass of wine while your guide shares the story of the park’s creation and its importance to local life.
