In the years 1720 and 1728, the first chapel was built, it was located a little more to the right than the current one. The foundation stone of the present church was placed on February 7, 1869 and was buried under the central entrance door.

Great fun day with lots of extras. Prompt pick up quick run down of days events
drive with a couple great stops along the way and typical small towns along the way
and then on to the ranch. I have horses so knew what to expect and their stock was perfect for the group which ranged from no experience to high level rider (not me).
Food and BBQ was great, folk show and folk dances, and horse training demo. Well worth the money!!!

What an amazing day--pick-up was smooth, our tour guide was great telling us about Argentina, the drive to the Pampas was great also. At the estancia, we had a great horseback ride, really great entertainment, and I can't say enough about how great the food was (lots of it too--wine and beer!).

Picked up approx 845am
Drove about an hour to gas station & gift shop (gift shop is good if you want to buy leather items or guacho ponchos) 20 minute stop. Drove another hour to a plaza & church, 15 minute stop.
At the ranch approx 12pm
Welcome reception with drinks under the shade of the Ombu tree was lovely, empanadas were delicious - best I’ve had yet.
The ride is approx 20 minutes, not that long really. On the tour it lists trotting and galloping on the horses. These horses aren’t getting out of a very slow, meandering walk. It’s a walk down a dirt road, into a paddock, around the paddock and back. I suppose it’s novelty for some, but it was very boring.
The long lunch was beautiful, this went for about 2 hours, the food was great, their Malbec was incredible, so easy and lovely to drink. After dessert & coffee, we went outside to the garden for some live music and watched a couple dance, following that the group was asked if they would like to join in and dance, it was very entertaining. The horse whispering is a sight to see, and was one of my favourite parts.
Back into the bus for 2 hours back about 6.30pm
It did feel like the stops were just time fillers while we waited to get to the ranch for our booking time, I would have liked to have gotten to the ranch earlier and maybe taken a walk around or read my book in the beautiful gardens. I can see the stops are not popular with other travellers too. Lorena was a lovely guide, she was very informative about Argentina.
