About this activity

Spend a full day on a working Argentine estancia (ranch) outside Buenos Aires, where you'll ride horses across sprawling grasslands, watch skilled gauchos demonstrate traditional horsemanship, and feast on an authentic asado barbecue. This intimate small-group experience offers genuine insight into the rural cowboy culture that defines Argentina's interior.

Dust off your cowboy boots for a day on an authentic estancia (ranch) tour and see Argentina’s legendary gauchos and cowboys demonstrate their unique horsemanship and wrangling skills. This small-group full-day tour takes you to an Estancia in a rural town in Buenos Aires, where you can saddle up for a horseback ride, enjoy a traditional folklore show, and tuck into a typical Argentinian asado barbecue.
