Argentina’s famed wine-growing culture reaches a zenith in Mendoza. Plan a tour tailored to your needs while staying in gorgeous hotels, lodges or resorts.

Enjoy the private Wine Tasting with a Sommelier excursion during a half-day tour that begins in a private wine cellar located in Mendoza City. Available year-round, the tour includes a wine tasting with three wines you’ll select yourself, a private tutorial offered in English, Spanish or Portuguese, a cheese platter and private transportation.

During the four-day, three-night Uco Valley Wine and Spa Tour in the Uco Valley Wine Producing Region, participants will enjoy transfers to and from the airport; modern transportation; a welcome dinner; a private, full-day wine tasting tour of three wineries; one bottle of sparkling wine per person (during the full-day tour); mineral water; gourmet lunch with wine pairing; spa treatments; and a farewell dinner. The tour includes an English-speaking guide.

The full-day Picnic in the Vineyards and Wineries of Mendoza tour takes place year-round from Monday through Friday, with a guide, private visits to two vineyards, tastings of mid-range wines, mineral water and a picnic basket filled with ingredients, including wine and individually sized sparkling wine.

Prefer an active tour? Consider the half-day guided Sunset Horseback Ride through the Vineyards in Luján de Cuyo in the Central wine-producing region. The tour includes transportation, a visit to two wineries, tastings of varietals, a full antipasto platter with wine and horseback riding. Gloves, hats, sunblock, insect repellent and a first-aid kit are also provided.

During the full-day Whitewater Rafting along the Wine Route of Mendoza, participants will raft the Mendoza River and partake in a gourmet lunch featuring regional cuisine and wine, visit a winery and experience a tasting of varietals in various tasting rooms. The tour includes transportation, guides and rafting equipment, including jacket, pants, helmets, oars and life jackets.

Williamsburg Inn Review

You don’t have to love brass chandeliers or brocade to appreciate what Williamsburg Inn does best: delivering a polished, unpretentious stay amid America’s most iconic living history museum. This is where you check in for traditional luxury without feeling like you’re trapped in a time capsule. The Queen stayed here (twice), and so did Eisenhower, but you’re not here to make history. You’re here to enjoy it, on your own terms.

Plan a Legendary Gathering in Honolulu

Myths and origin stories form a powerful framework for the history of Hawai‘i. Marking the horizon behind Honolulu, the ancient volcanic formation of Lē‘ahi — technically a volcanic tuff cone more commonly known to the world as Diamond Head — provides a constant physical reminder of the tales that shaped the history of this location. While researching legends for my Hawai‘i-based Dark Paradise Mysteries series (Kensington Books), I learned the tale of the demigod Maui, who used his enchanted fishing hook to reach into the sea to heave the Hawaiian islands, including Diamond Head, above the surface of the water.
