About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Norma S0 contributionsA great choiceOne of the top things we did in Buenos Aires. If I were to do it again I would spend the night. Service was fabulous. The food was delicious and the estancia it self is old with a lot of character.Written 10 March 2024
- vaughan20230 contributionsRide em gauchoExcellent day for enjoyment of a typical Argentinian BBQ and hospitality. Local entertainment with visitor participation. Gentle horse ride for non riders.Written 6 February 2023
- Cwhitledge0 contributionsFantastic estancia experience!The Staff was super efficient in communication in advance and made an effort to arrange things as good as possible. The estancia we visited was very beautiful, genuine and well-maintained. Everyone was kind and eager for us to have a great time. If you have horse riding skills, you can ask them to arrange a better horse to do some extra galloping around the fields. The horses are amazing! Juan, the “horse whisperer’, was like nothing I have ever seen before: complete control over a horse with just a gentle touch and his voice. Service and food were excellent, the estancia: a dream. I’m eager to go back and spend more time there. Asado was perfect, one of the best BBQ meals I had over 6 weeks traveling in Argentina. Highly recommend!Written 22 January 2020

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is a very special experience; Santiago is an extremely knowledgeable, fun and professional guide who will show you the gaucho culture in San Antonio de Areca. Highlights on our trip included a tour of the town center as well a horseback ride and an Asado lunch on the estancia. Santiago will introduce you to local artisans and to the gauchos who have learned their skills from their families passed through generations. We highly recommend. It is so convenient to be picked up from your apartment or hotel in BA. The value is excellent. Be sure to bring your camera!

In the nicest possible way, it would be a huge mistake to NOT book this tour! It was probably the best day of our holiday! Marcello was the best tour guide. He was so accommodating, informative, and funny, and really just felt like a friend hanging out with us by the end! The ranch was so beautiful, and the food was delicious! With the long horse ride, all the food and wine, and dancing at the end, this tour more than worth the price! The empanada snack was the best empanadas we had on our whole trip, and the tango dancing at the end was interactive and fun. And the handsome Gaucho ‘Sebastian’ didn’t hurt either! ;) The whole experience made us want to come back to the ranch and stay at the hotel in the future!

What an amazing experience, from door to door pick up and drop off. The tour around Areco town was awesome Our guide Laurie was so knowledgeable and nice you can tell she loves the town. Being a small town a lot of businesses are owned and operated by family so if it’s vacation time they are closed so there are she has options of other places you can see. We learned a lot. The Estancia (ranch) was beautiful wonderful snack upon arrival, plenty of Green space a small playground and a couple of swings. Gentle trail ride suitable for everyone my daughter (6yrs) and I rode together. I would highly recommend this tour it’s worth it.

Driving from Buenos Aires to San Antonio Areco was a beautiful ride into the countryside. It is a well-maintained farm that provides a guest with another view of Argentina, away from the city life. Horseback riding or a buggy ride was our first activity. The gauchos provided us with the history of life on the Pampas, the horses, and country life. They entertained us with games on horseback and then served us family style, a farm to table feast, under the trees. Then came a folk dancing show that included guest participation. A special day, don't miss it!
