Traveler reviews
Underwhelming
Very slow start, a lot of hanging about. Food very good . Singing and dancing good. Horse ride on cart around a field. Not allowed to ride horses. Goucho show not very exciting. At least at Blackpool you can ride a donky. On Easter Sunday. Over priced. Tony uk
Fake ranch, more of a tourists spot.
A ranch with no cattle and just horses is a horse farm. Lunch was good, but definitely not worth the money. Go do something else for the money, and skip seeing a fake ranch.
Wonderful family owned gaucho experience!
Excellent day trip, wonderful family ranch with fantastic lunch, tango and gaucho riding show. The owner greets you and performs in the gaucho riding. Overall a great tour.
A dive into gaucho culture.
Fantastic staff, always attentive to guests. Fantastic meat, music, tango performance, horse show, all beautiful!!!! A nice dive into the Argentine world. Highly recommended!!!
Excellent daytrip from Buenos Aires
Total change of scenery coming out of busy BA and we were greeted by very friendly ranch owner and his family. A lot of good food coming nonstop from start to finish and empanada they served is the best in Argentina - very moist and tasty. Rustic experience at a typical Argentine ranch (estancia), dedicated to agriculture and the breeding of cattle and horses. After a tour of the grounds and interesting family history, barbecue lunch is served in huge dining hall. They must have much better business when hundreds of people visited in a day when there is cruise ships at BA port. Barbecue is also very good, followed by a folklore show with live music and dancing. Owner himself and family also showed their horse riding and cowboy skills at the end. Tip: don't be discouraged by very high dollar prize shown here (it must be something wrong with conversion (official rate is more than 50% than street rate). We just visited this summer and it was $99 with our tour bus. May be wait until you arrive to Buenos Aires, then exchange your dollars and let your hotel book for you.
