Volle dag rijden aan de voet van de Andes

It's like being inside a western movie! You're welcomed in a true ranch, and led in a tour of a breathtaking scenery. No riding experience is required, just relax and follow the natural movement of the horse. My friend is more skilled, they let him run with the horse on a long straight path cutting the plains. Food is very rustically served but sourced from their cows, so very good. You'll have lunch with the guides, they can speak english and give away some interesting local stories. An adventure I absolutely recommend!

This is a very unique and worthy experience. I was picked up just outside of Mendoza, which was very nice the team was able to accommodate/organize that pick up for me. The drive is about 2 hours outside of the city to the ranch. At the ranch, breakfast was prepared for us. After eating we got on the horses for a few hours. Upon our return we ate asado (grilled meat and veggies) outside with wine. After our meal we traveled back into the city. Be prepared to be occupied with this for the entire day. There is no set schedule, it is sort of up to you to call the shots, which is nice because you are ultimately paying for your experience! The owner was very kind and welcoming, and overall the experience was very laid back and chill, just nice to leave the city for a bit and see a very remote part of Argentina at the base of the mountains.

This was by far the best part of our trip to Mendoza. We were taken about 2 hours from the city center by car and spent the entire day in a remote farm in the foothills of the mountains. This experience offered us a peek into the life of the gaucho - enjoying the wilderness on horseback and witnessing breathtaking views of the Andes in the distance, followed by an asado, fantastic conversation and music with the group who run the property. We can’t stop talking about how it was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had, let alone on this trip. This was not some boring stroll as another commenter posted, nor were the horses malnourished. We had a very spirited ride through the foothills, and afterwards, were served local vintages. This is rough country and not for the Disney World crowd. Highly recommend.
