Get a taste of life on an Argentine estancia, a traditional cattle ranch, during a nine-hour private tour from Buenos Aires. Learn about the culture and history of the cattle ranching industry in Argentina and take in the landscape of the scenic Pampas.
On this tour, you will visit the town of San Antonio de Areco, capital of Argentinean Traditions.
Argentina is well known for its vast farmlands. Since the country’s formal organization as a national entity in the second half of the 19th century, it followed an agricultural and livestock export model of development with a large concentration of crops in the fertile Pampas.
It is largely limited to stock-raising activities and centered on the export of cattle hides and wool. Once there, you can take rides on the horses or go for a ride in a sulky (two-wheeled cart) while enjoying the traditional Argentinean empanadas and beverages.
At lunchtime, the group will enjoy a typical Asado, country-style barbecue, prepared using only the finest quality meats. Dessert is accompanied by a folklore show, which is followed by a demonstration of gaucho skills. This whole package will give you an outlook on the Argentinean countryside and its history.
