About this experience
Experience authentic gaucho life on a full-day countryside escape from Buenos Aires. Choose between Estancia Santa Susana, famous for its lively folk shows and grand Argentine barbecue, or Estancia La Bandada, offering a relaxed, hands-on experience with an empanada-making class and free time to enjoy nature and the pool.
At Santa Susana, enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride, visit the chapel and museum, savor a traditional asado with wine, and watch tango, boleadoras, and gaucho horseback shows before ending with mate and pastries.
At La Bandada, learn to make empanadas, explore the ranch on foot or horseback, taste freshly grilled meats and garden vegetables, see gaucho skill games, and unwind with pampeano tea and mate.
Both experiences include round-trip transfer, lunch, and a deep connection to Argentina’s rural heritage.
