Interesting view of life on ranch - Terrific tour guide. English skills excellent. Guacho ranch beautiful, horse riding about 20 minutes and well organized. Lunch on veranda lovely. Show very interesting . Mosiquitoes are a problem. Treat clothes and skin before going. Very hot so dress accordingly. Highly recommend.

Family fun - We had a wonderful time. The folkloric music and dancing were excellent and the demonstration of gaucho riding was impressive. Of note were the birds, including barn owls, which we saw on the carriage and tractor rides—a good place for birding.

What is there not to like? Entertainment, horse riding, gauchos and plenty of Malbec and grilled meats! - A day full of entertainment! For city folk like we are, going to a farm is always fun. Horse-riding, carriage riding, zip lining, activities galore. But the lunch with grilled meat and plenty of Malbec plus great live entertainment (music, tango, folklore dances, etc) was the highlight of the tour.

A good overview of gaucho culture for 5 hours - Did this tour in a cool and sunny day which makes it a lot more attractive . You get picked up at the hotel and then driven to the ranch. Thereafter at 1100-1630hrs you are invited to partake in horse rides, horse carriage ride, talk in gaucho culture, lunch with a good and entertaining show highlighting the fences in the region as well as a quick overview of tango. This is followed by gaucho tricks on horses and a tea with mate . It ticks all you want to see in outside BA and was okay for me . I left happy and satisfied . Will recommend in future . Just be aware that this outdoor, so bring sunblock and insect repellent and your shoes will get muddy at some parts

Good tourist-oriented experience - Pretty good: a busy day with 1 hour in a minibus (30 minutes in the suburbs and 30 minutes in the countryside on the motorway), a short 20-minute horse ride accessible to all (more than 1.3m I think) or horse-drawn carriages, presentation of history Gaucho, 2-hour meal with local musical and dance entertainment, horseback acrobatics show and snack to finish. Overall a good tourist-oriented experience, the missing star because I would have liked more authentic, but for that you have to go very far into the countryside of Argentina (allow 1 day of travel there + 1 day on site to see herds of cows ;)

Long wait for the gaucho show - Staff was nice, spoke good English and was helpful. However, the whole event was way to long and the horse show way to short. 30 minutes out of 5 hours! For me a bit of waste of time in hindsight. I also didn’t like that the gauchos were not really dressed up. Would have made a difference in the photos.

Experience not worth the money - The lunch show was nice but other than that there really wasn't anything to do during the 6 hours we were there. They had a nose to tail horseback ride that was 15 minutes long that you had to wait in line 2 hours to go on. There were a lot of people just standing around looking for something to do. And the mosquitos were everywhere. The little suckers were going through my jeans!
