Itinerary and highlights
Visit a traditional silversmith's workshop, where skilled artisans craft exquisite pieces like mates and belt buckles, preserving gaucho traditions. Afterwards, a stop at a local chocolate shop provides a sweet contrast. These two brief stops perfectly showcase Areco's enduring craftsmanship and delightful local treats.
Estancia El Ombú de Areco is a historic ranch located just outside San Antonio de Areco, a town synonymous with gaucho culture. Housed in a magnificent late-colonial style mansion built in 1880, it offers visitors an authentic immersion into rural Argentine life. Guests can enjoy horseback riding across the sprawling pampas, watch traditional gaucho skills demonstrations, and savor a delicious asado (Argentine barbecue). With its comfortable accommodations, lush park featuring centennial trees (including the namesake ombú), and a working farm with cattle and horses, El Ombú provides a genuine and relaxing escape into the heart of the Argentine countryside.
