Considered the birthplace of winemaking in Mendoza, Luján de Cuyo is renowned for its Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon wines. The region’s high altitude, cool nights and unique soil make the region a popular one for wine tourism.

Experience the beauty of Mendoza on horseback with a guided tour by gauchos, also known as skilled horsemen. Tours cater to all types of interests, from sunset rides to wine-centric experiences to full-day adventures.

Over Las Cuevas River, near the small village of Puente del Inca, is the Bridge of the Inca, a natural arch bridging the tributary of the Mendoza River. The formation dates back to the last ice age, and its unique appearance has drawn the likes of Charles Darwin to visit. The bridge also lies near some hot springs of the same name as the bridge. © Iakov Filimonov | Dreamstime.com
Within Mendoza’s main city is Plaza Independencia, a landscaped square and energetic space with fountains, trees, pergolas, food vendors, Mendoza Municipal Museum of Modern Art, Teatro Municipal Julio Quintanilla and more.

Mendoza wine is highly regarded, and for good reason. The flagship grape of Mendoza is Malbec, but Mendoza is also well-known for its Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Chardonnay and Bonarda. In addition to Luján de Cuyo, other main wine regions include Uco Valley and Maipú. © Javarman | Dreamstime.com

Sep 16, 2026On Location: Experience The Real-Life Settings of Your Favorite Films and TV Shows
Set-jetting is more than just a cute play on words. It’s a travel concept that lets you visit the real-life settings of some of your favorite movies and television shows. At one time you had to go someplace like Universal Studios in Hollywood to visit your favorite movie and television show sets. While you can still take studio tours (the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in London is the place to go if you are a diehard fan of the Harry Potter franchise), these days there are filming locations all over the world, and the tourism industry makes visiting them in person as easy as buying a plane ticket.
