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.

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

Nov 11, 2026Learn to Surf in Nazaré, Portugal
During a recent trip to Portugal, we stopped in Nazaré, a coastal town outside of Lisbon known for surfing and giant waves. Despite only visiting for a day, we knew we couldn’t stop without learning to surf. After a fueling lunch at AZULL Rooftop by the Sea, we headed down to the beach to meet our instructors at Nazaré Surf School, founded in 2012. It’s the first and only school with a location right on iconic Nazaré beach.
