A Mendoza family, three perspectives, one standard. Since 2009 we design private tours, exclusive events and wine tourism experiences that aren't built from a template — they're built for each traveler.
Founded in 2009 · Mendoza, ArgentinaHugo Laricchia returns to Mendoza after years in Italy, rugby and the business world. He knows every road of the province, every winery, every winemaker. What's missing is what he's about to create: an agency that doesn't organize tours, but designs private experiences for demanding travelers.
For more than a decade Hugo builds what doesn't show up in a brochure: relationships of trust with owners, winemakers and winery teams. That invisible capital is what makes it possible today to access spaces and experiences that aren't on the mass tourist circuit.
In recent years Malena joins with logistical and financial precision. Nicolás, with international experience and three languages, brings the perspective of the traveler arriving from abroad. Three generations of the same family working so that no experience resembles the previous one.
Every tour is designed from scratch according to the traveler's tastes, schedule and expectations. We don't use templates or standard packages. No two experiences are ever the same.
15 years of relationships with Mendoza's finest wineries give us access to spaces and experiences not available to the public. Your experience takes place where others cannot reach.
From the first message to the farewell, every detail matters. Punctuality, attention, knowledge, comfort. Excellence is not a goal, it is the minimum standard.
