It is best to arrive in Santiago Chile and have a connecting flight to Mendoza Argentina. (Approx. 60 minutes). You will not leave the terminal. Santiago has a very modern airport with English speaking staff. Internet services are also available for a very small fee.
If you plan on spending time in Santiago you will be required to pay a visa fee ($100 US) when departing the airport.
We recommend you have your bags checked all the way through to Mendoza from your departure city.
If you plan on arriving to Mendoza via Buenos Aires you will need to pick up your luggage and then take a taxi (Approx. $20.00 US) to the domestic airport which is roughly a one hour transfer. This is not recommended unless you plan on visiting Buenos Aires while in Argentina.
Tour Mendoza Wines is not responsible for delayed flights, lost or delayed luggage or any costs incurred. We will however provide you with any assistance needed.
