Wine Routes — Latin America

When to go

November to March, when the southern summer opens Patagonia's trails and long, luminous days lengthen every horizon. Your advisor times it to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.

The experiences

A sense of what this journey can hold — each one arranged privately and shaped to you:

  • A private tasting among the Malbec vines of Mendoza, the Andes rising behind the rows.
  • A long, leisurely asado paired with the estate's finest reserves at a table set for you alone.
  • An intimate tango evening in Buenos Aires, guided by a host who knows the city after dark.
  • A morning walk through Buenos Aires' grand avenues and hidden cafes with a private guide.

A sense of the rhythm

This is travel measured in glasses raised and long lunches that drift into afternoon. Days in wine country are gentle and sun-warmed, evenings in the capital alive with music and conversation. You move at the pace of pleasure, never the clock.

Mendoza wine country or Buenos Aires city days?

Mendoza offers you vineyard estates, mountain light and the unhurried ritual of the table. Buenos Aires answers with grand architecture, tango and the finest parrillas in the city. The most rewarding journeys pair a few days among the vines with the elegant energy of the capital.

How to do it well

The counsel our advisors give travelers planning this journey:

  • Reserve estate lunches rather than tastings alone; the meal is where the region reveals itself.
  • Keep afternoons light, as Mendoza rewards those who linger over a single long table.
  • Ask your advisor to secure a late tango reservation, when the city truly comes alive.
  • Travel between vineyard and capital by private arrangement to preserve the day's easy rhythm.

What only your advisor can open

The difference between a good trip and an unrepeatable one is access — and access is a relationship, not a booking. Every guide, room and moment is chosen and sequenced for you.

Who it's for

Travelers who value privacy, time and doing it once — beautifully — and who would rather have one trusted advisor orchestrate every detail than assemble it themselves.

Estimated investment

From US$11,500 per traveler, based on double occupancy — scaled to your dates, party size and level of privacy. A starting point, not a final quote; confirmed once your advisor tailors the itinerary.

Designed entirely around you

Nothing here is a package. A Forest Travel advisor shapes the whole journey and stays one message away before and throughout your trip.
