Very good time! The staff is very nice. The food was delicious. Best steak and chorizo we have had in Argentina.

For a novice rider, the ranchers/guides gave simple and easy to follow instructions. They paired the horses with each individual by their experience, size and weight. The horse is so tame and gentle at the same time. I was relaxed during my first horseback riding session to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The Patagonia steppe was breathtaking and the 2hrs ride passed before we realized it’s over.
Then it came the enormous amount of food for lunch. The meat was perfectly grilled and the wine was delirious.
I walked away with tremendous appreciation for the beautiful natural landscape and the well cared for animals as they get to roam free after a job well done.

Great trip and ride along amazing scenery in the mountains. The Gauchos were great and told us lots of information about the Ranch and surrounding area. Thanks for a great day!
