Money-Saving Tips for Mendoza
- Book wineries in advance — most require reservations, especially the famous ones (Catena Zapata, Achaval-Ferrer)
- Stay in Chacras de Coria or Maipú for vineyard immersion; downtown for food and walkability
- Bike tours of Maipú vineyards are the cheap, social option (~$20/day rental + tastings)
- Day-trip to Aconcagua provincial park for views; you don't need to climb the mountain to enjoy it
- Visit during shoulder season (March to May (harvest), September to November (spring)) for the best balance of weather and prices
