Welcome to Estancia Tour – Your Authentic Argentine Ranch Experience
At Estancia Tour, we invite you to step into the heart of Argentina’s rich gaucho heritage and experience the timeless charm of life on a traditional estancia (ranch). Located just outside Buenos Aires, our carefully curated day tours offer more than just sightseeing—they provide a genuine cultural immersion into the rural soul of Argentina.
What We Offer
1. Full-Day Estancia Experiences
Spend a full day at a working Argentine ranch, where you’ll enjoy:
- A warm welcome with traditional mate (herbal tea) and regional snacks
- Guided horseback riding through scenic pastures and native woodlands
- Live folk music and tango performances that celebrate local traditions
- An authentic asado (Argentine barbecue) featuring premium cuts of beef, accompanied by local wines and empanadas
2. Cultural Immersion & Gaucho Demonstrations
Witness skilled gauchos (Argentine cowboys) showcase their horsemanship, cattle herding techniques, and traditional ranch tasks. Learn about their history, lifestyle, and enduring role in Argentine identity.
3. Family-Friendly & Accessible Activities
Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with children, our tours include options for all ages and comfort levels—horseback riding for beginners, carriage rides, walking tours of the grounds, and interactive workshops (like bread-making or leathercraft).
4. Convenient Transportation
We provide round-trip transfers from central Buenos Aires hotels, ensuring a seamless and stress-free journey to and from the countryside.
What do you need to know about an Estancia Tour in Buenos Aires?
Q: Do I need prior horseback riding experience?
A: Not at all! Our tours cater to all skill levels. Beginners receive a safety briefing and are matched with calm, well-trained horses. For those who prefer not to ride, carriage rides or walking tours are available.
Q: What should I wear?
A: We recommend comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and closed-toe shoes (boots are ideal but not required). In summer, bring sunscreen and a hat; in winter, layer up as it can be cooler in the countryside.
Q: Is the tour suitable for children?
A: Yes! Families are welcome, and many of our estancias offer child-friendly activities such as feeding farm animals, playgrounds, and simplified riding options.
Q: What’s included in the price?
A: The tour includes round-trip transportation from central Buenos Aires, a guided experience at the estancia, all activities (horseback riding, shows, etc.), and a full traditional lunch with wine, soft drinks, and dessert.
Q: How long does the tour last?
A: Our standard tour runs from approximately 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, giving you a full day to enjoy the ranch and return comfortably to the city.
Q: Can dietary restrictions be accommodated?
A: Absolutely. Please inform us of any dietary needs (vegetarian, gluten-free, allergies, etc.) when booking, and we’ll ensure your meal is prepared accordingly.
