Bike Tour in Mendoza Wine Country
Mendoza, Argentina
Mendoza wine country is best seen by bike, when you can cover a lot of ground while enjoying the fresh air and sunshine! On this full-day bike tour, head out through the vineyards with a knowledgeable guide to three wineries, where you’ll learn about the winemaking process in one of South America’s most famous wine regions. Of course, you’ll enjoy wine tastings and lunch, too!
Your day in Mendoza wine country begins with pickup at your hotel and a comfortable drive south to Vistalba a small village of tree-lined streets, surrounded by vineyards overlooking the Andes and a variety of architecture, from beautiful mansions to ultra-modern homes.
Listen to quick safety briefing from your experienced guide, and then grab your bike and helmet and set off around the countryside! Your easy bike ride will take you through the vineyards of Mendoza on both paved and non-paved surfaces; the total bike distance is approximately 6 miles (4 km). Follow your guide along a mostly flat route to Kaiken, Bodega Cap Vistalba and Nieto Senetiner wineries.
At each winery you visit, learn about the Mendoza winemaking process, as well as its history, from your guide and the wineries’ staff, and then taste the outstanding products! Compare the different varieties, such as malbec, the red wine for which Mendoza is perhaps most renowned. Enjoy lunch at Nieto Senetiner before heading back to your Mendoza hotel.
An absolutely incredible experience!! The entire tour was wonderfully planned and timed. Pick up occurred on time and without issue, and the tour guides were lovely, helpful and friendly. The wineries visited were a wonderful mix, providing a combination of big and small, old and more modern. All costs of tasting and lunch are included in the price, making it a real steal! The biking is enjoyable, as you are taking a ride through the beautiful countryside of Lujan de Cuyo, and it is not at a difficult road, nor are the distances between wineries great. Absolutely five stars, a must do when visiting Mendoza!

Great Guides, Lots of Wine, Great Food, Great Group, awesome experience. A little expensive, could have skipped the bike part for a good bit of money...

Fernanda was an awesome tour guide. She knows her stuff very well and is very passionate about it. I had so much fun with the tour. She even recommended great bars in Mendoza city.

The wine yards were really nice and the landscape of Mendoza is beautiful! Unfortunately they put way too many people in one group so it felt very caotic with all the bikes and people on the road. Also, the guide did not seem to have sobered up from yesterdays wine tasting.

We went to very different vineyards for good variety. The guide overall and at each winery were very knowledgeable and open to answer any questions. My only complaint is that I imagined biking on quiet country roads and we were on busy town roads that were flat but not smooth, very bumpy.

Really good day out. Really enjoyed touring the wineries via mountain bike. The two wineries visited were very nice and informative. A lovely meal was provided at the second of the wineries. The tour guide Stefi was very good. Definitely recommend the tour.
