This was a great idea experience and an opportunity to learn a little about the history of the Gaucho. The food was delicious and plentiful. Everyone was extremely friendly. The horseback ride is not very long (about 20 min), nor strenuous. As you walk the perimeter of the property.

I’ll do this in point form as my original review didn’t go through and then it was ‘lost’.
* A terrific day out!!!
* Our guide, Rosa, was very informative and personable
* The estancia was in a beautiful setting with an attractive, historic main building, a beautiful lawn and trees that you sat under to eat lunch
*Very tasty food and delicious empanadas
* friendly, helpful staff
* a very enjoyable horse ride for at least an hour
* entertainment after lunch was good... singing and dancing and group participation if you were interested.
* The horse whisperer at the end was amazing. He had the horse laying upside down with its legs in the air as he was lying on top of it!!
* only small groups.. maybe 70 people in all. No bus loads of cruise ship passengers. Much more intimate.
* A great day out. I loved it.

We did 4 tours over our trip to Santiago and Buenos Aires and this was hands down the best experience for our family of 10. First off we had Pablo as our tour guide for the full day and he was nothing short of fantastic. His knowledge of Argentina as a whole and his comfort with our family which included 4 kids under 15 was amazing. The horse back riding was perfect for our family as many had never done it before so it gave you a great taste of what it was like without major risks. The lunch was a true Argentinian meat eating experience outside under the shade of the huge trees. All I will say is come hungry. Wonderful day and would recommend this to anyone touring Argentina for the first time.
