It’d be a sin to stop in Mendoza and not go wine tasting. Since Dad and I would do nothing of the sort, we booked the best tour in town with Trout and Wine. We were treated to an all-day private tour with a wonderful English-speaking guide who accompanied us to four local vineyards that served us their top shelf and a fabulous lunch.
While my dad was in Santiago, we decided to escape the city for a few days, so he could see other parts of South America. We took a 6-hour bus ride across the Andes to Mendoza, Argentina — a quiet wine town set in beautiful country. It was a great trip for us to explore a place we had never been before, together.
