Don’t miss out! - Such an unreal experience!!! Great to get out of the city for the day and experience a different way of living and learn about the history and culture behind the Gauchos. Veronica was an amazing guide and taught us so much about Buenos Aires and Argentina as a whole. Can say I now have friends in Argentina from sharing the Mate ❤️

Fantastic day out - We decided last minute to take a private tour into the countryside rather than walk around a hot Capital city full of concrete and are so glad that our hotel concierge recommended Signature tours.
Our driver and guide for the day, Marcelo was superb. He put us at ease right from the moment he collected us from the hotel in a clean air conditioned mini van.
Our day was made more special by his knowledge and the fact that he seemed to personally know all the people in the places we stopped. There was no hard sell anywhere and he taught us a lot about Argentina, its history and Gauchos.
When we reached the estancia he showed us around and made sure that we had the food we wanted. The food and demonstrations were excellent and made for a thoroughly enjoyable day out.
This tour was great value and we would recommend it to others.

Wonderful day out to the country - Our guide Henry arrived right on time. The vehicle was new and comfortable so our trip out to the courtyside was very comfortable. Henry was very knowledgeable and gave us a commentary all along the trip. The town of San Antonio was beautiful. Not a big tourist spot so we saw a real Argentine small town. The ranch was fun. A beautiful lunch with more food than you could eat. The show was lovely. Highly recommend this day out of the big city.

Amazing day for family!! - Wow - what an incredible experience! Our guide Marcelo was a wonderful guide and even more amazing person. He welcomed my wife and my 1.5 year old baby so nicely and we had the best day ever. The ranch was stunning and so accommodating and the Gauchos were so nice, especially Tobias who my daughter took an extra liking to.. We have never seen our baby so excited, highly recommend - thank you!!

Great day at Gaucho Ranch - I recently spent a day on this tour with friends. The overall experience was amazing - unlike anything I had done before - and it was truly special to experience an authentic Gaucho ranch and lifestyle. The meal was fantastic and the food just didn't stop coming!
Horse riding was also great fun, and the 'horse whispering' was really impressive.
The day was made even better by our fantastic tour guide Sabrina, who took every opportunity to explain everything around us for the whole day. Her attentive nature, great conversation and fun personality was a great reflection of the day as a whole.

High recommend this wonderful tour! - This was a gorgeous once-in-a-lifetime experience. We loved it! Our guide, Myriam Sosa, was wonderful. She was friendly and super knowledgeable. She engaged everyone on our tour including from my kids (ages 10 and 14) to my parents (in their 80's). Our group included people from the US, Ireland, Canada and Argentina, and we all loved it. We rode horses, my parents danced a milonga, we ate wonderful food, we enjoyed the surroundings, we learned a lot -- we all agreed it was the perfect end to our vacation in Buenos Aires. Highly recommend this wonderful tour!!

Amazing Day Trip from Buenos Aires - From start to finish this was an amazing experience! Our guide, Sabrina, was so knowledgeable and fun- she did a terrific job! It couldn’t have been easier since they pick you up and drop you off at the hotel. The food at the estancia is amazing as is the wine and service. We had a lot of fun exploring the ranch, the horseback riding was such a fun bonus as well! Would highly recommend this excursion from Buenos Aires. Pro tip: skip breakfast and come hungry! There is a ton of food!
