Quick and very useful tour, it was really worth it to get to know the history of the city. Which is also a beautiful city with a lot to do! As we don't speak the language, we asked for a translator who was all the time explaining everything to us, an excellent point for the service provider Mendoza Viages, a very good means of transport, great value for money. Worth every penny! We really love it.
