Posted from the Sheraton Quito, PM me after the 20th and I will be happy to help with telephone numbers. web addresses and other questions. Some are posted in this thread.
Thanks -- I'll PM you.

What we're looking for is pretty straightforward -- the "best" Mendoza experience at a reasonable price. What's reasonable? I was hoping to keep my lodging expenses below US$150/day (per room) and my transportation cost below US$100/day (including visits to wineries) and yet travel in style and comfort. I've been able to travel on that budget elsewhere in Argentina, but after looking at some of the links, I'm not so sure about Mendoza. Hence, my need for help!

Thanks.
