Mendoza winery tour with Michelin-star dinner: Private chauffeur included

Taste two sides of Mendoza in one afternoon: the winery, then the kitchen

A private tour of Mendoza combining a winery visit and tasting at Los Toneles with a Michelin-star dinner at Saffron restaurant, including private transport and an English or Spanish-speaking guide. You'll taste wines from the Mosquita Muerta line at the winery, then sit down to a three-course menu paired with Mendoza wines at the award-winning restaurant, finishing with a return to your hotel.

The experience

The day starts with pickup from your accommodation and a private driver who takes you to Los Toneles Winery in central Mendoza. There you'll tour the winery and taste wines from the Mosquita Muerta line, each one chosen to show the character and craft behind it. After about an hour at the winery, the driver takes you back toward the city center, a 30-minute drive, and deposits you at Saffron, the Michelin-starred restaurant that has held its one star for two consecutive years.

Dinner is a three-step menu built around local and seasonal ingredients, each course paired with a Mendoza wine. The kitchen balances Argentine tradition with contemporary technique, so the food moves between what the region has always made and what it's becoming. You're not ordering from a list. You're following the chef's progression through the menu. The whole experience, winery to table, takes about five hours from pickup to return.

The private transport means no group timing, no shared van, and no waiting for other stops. Your driver handles the route and the return to your hotel at the end of the night. The guide speaks English or Spanish, and the vehicle is air-conditioned for the drive between sites.

Is this one for you?Five hours is enough to see the winery and sit through dinner without rushing, but it leaves little room for other stops that day. Book this if the winery-to-table arc is your main plan for the afternoon and evening.
