Mendoza is literally an oasis in the desert. If nobody told you, you wouldn’t know that the city, with all its beautiful tree-lined avenues and parks, was originally a desert. The “acequias” (irrigation ditches) run along the streets making it possible to keep it one of the greenest cities of the country with atmospheric plazas.
My hometown is on the west of Argentina near the dry Andes Mountains. We have about 300 sunny days in a year, and we really love it this way! The climate and the hard work allowed Mendoza to become one of the 10 Great Wine Capitals of the world. All around the place is full of wine shops, where you can get a huge diversity of local wines, from any of our more than 1000 wineries.
I’d love to invite you to walk with me in the very heart of the city and experience the laid-back vibes. We will start the tour on top of a terrace to get a panoramic view of the city and the backdrop of the mountains. Then, we’ll see the leafy streets, Plaza España, and the Pedestrian Street with its lively cafes and restaurants. As we walk, I’ll share with you stories about our people, food, and lifestyle. We’ll finish in one of the best wine shops in town in order to tell you more about our famous Baccus’ elixir.
Join me to enjoy more of the world, to enjoy Mendoza: city of sun and good wine.

Hola gente linda! My name is Romina but you can call me Romi, the way my family and friends do! I’m a professional Tour Guide and Travel Coordinator, as well as a Teacher of English as a Foreign Language, both University Degrees that I got in my lively hometown: Mendoza, Argentina.
During the first years of my career I worked as a teacher in Mendoza, then wanted to see more of the world and moved to New Zealand for a year. I realized that it just made me happy to be in touch with diverse cultures, so I studied Tourism back in Mendoza, and jumped into this new world of adventures. . I’ve been a Local Guide and then a Tour Manager in southern South America since 2009. I really love my job.
I cannot wait to share a lot of stories, to tell you about our wine and mountains, our heritage, our people and more… so be my guest and come walk with me!

30 November 2020 at 15:03Romina is a fantastic guide! I’m a teacher of Spanish in Switzerland and I booked her tour for my students. They really enjoyed the experience! Romina offered full and clear descriptions of the city, its culture and history, always with a big smile and great sense of humor! Her explanations were interesting and informative; she was very patient and listened to all our comments, and of course, she answered all our questions. The pace of the tour was perfect, neither too fast nor too slow. All in all, we give her 5 stars! Thank you very much Romina for showing us your lovely city!
