Dream fulfilled - An unforgettable experience to be able to see the highest mountain in the Americas so close. The walk from the park entrance to the Horcones lagoon is super quiet. In addition, the route (RN7) to Aconcagua and the Puente del Inca is like a movie. The guide Amilcar was a crack, very good vibes. I highly recommend!

Amazing Aconcagua 🤩 - An amazing day from start to finish - I absolutely loved it! A stunning drive through the Mendoza mountains with sightseeing stops along the way, and the highlight hike to view Aconcagua from Laguna Horcones. Lunch at Uspallata was fabulous too. Vanina is the perfect guide - warm, knowledgable and a pleasure to spend the day with. Thank you Destino Montana!

High mountains tour - The experience exceeded my expectations, very punctual at pick-up and comfortable transportation. The trip to the places, our guide Vanina explained everything to us very clearly and in a good mood (I recommend the best guide). Breakfast is very Argentine, but I do tell you that lunch exceeds expectations, an excellent barbecue. I recommend the tour
