About operator:

Located 90 km from the city of Neuquén Capital is the Los Barreales Paleontological Center, the only site museum, where different species of dinosaurs that inhabited the area millions of years ago can be known both in the museum and outdoors. The site, recently opened to the public, is managed by the National University of Comahue in charge of its geologists and paleontologists who live there and along with them we will travel the paths of history and the ancient species that trod our Patagonian land.
Then we will move to the Schroeder Winery, during the guided tour we will discover how one of its caves coined one of its greatest treasures: "Panamericansaurus Schroederi" dinosaur discovered during the construction of the winery that today houses the paleontological remains. A view towards the immense Patagonia stained with vineyards will be the ideal setting for a Patagonian lunch and culminate the day touring its vineyards.
