Recommended experience! - The experience was excellent. The people at El Relincho were very friendly, fun, and were attentive to our needs all the time. The ride was very nice, the scenery beautiful, the view from the top amazing, the horses super meek and reliable. They taught us a lot about how to ride the horses and were giving us more information during the journey, as they saw us, which was useful and interesting. The roast very rich, and very nice time to relax and share.
The round trip very enjoyable by van. Recommended experience!!!

A favorite thing to do while in Mendoza - This was great!!! We were told when we would be picked up from our Air BNB. Ezekiel was fabulous!!! We had so many laughs in the car alone. Once we arrived at the ranch, refreshments were available. The ride took us through canyons of the Andes. You do not need any riding experience. The views at the look out area are absolutely breathtaking. Back at the ranch we were served with a really delicious BBQ. Definitely a must on your trip.

Great Experience and Views - Didn’t really know what to expect but would recommend the experience, especially once you reach the view point, as it’s amazing.
Horses are so calm and know exactly what to do, especially when coming down the hill
The family are so welcoming and making sure you know what to do and you have enjoyed yourself
Full instructions are given so you know what to do on the ride, safety helmets are also available if required.
The road into the ranch is an experience its own, but worth it.
Really tasty food afterwards with wine or juice.
Everyone involved in the tour is excellent. Great communication beforehand, we had a bit up of a mix up about pickup but it was all sorted out easily with the organisers.
Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic horseback riding and asado experience! - We had the best time on this excursion with this family business! They were so welcoming and friendly. The ride through the mountains was breathtaking and the food that awaited us at the end of our ride was delicious. They were very understanding of my gluten allergy and adjusted my meal accordingly. Highly recommend!!

Amazing Horse and Asado Experience - This was my favorite activity in Argentina! The ride through the mountains was beautiful and the asado meal was delicious — better than going to a restaurant! Estela and Gabriel were such wonderful hosts and guides, making me feel very comfortable during my first time riding a horse. They made us feel like part of their family. I would recommend this trip to anyone traveling to the Mendoza region!

One of the best experiences we’ve ever had - Such a fabulous day spent horse riding in the Andes. The journey to the ranch was an adventure itself but so worth the time. Greeted with refreshments and introductions to our hosts. Good instructions to riding and the horses, and then we were off in a line over the stunning and tricky terrain. The views were amazing and plenty of opportunities for photos. We had total trust in the Gauchos and our horses. Falcundo at the front was So calm and reassuring, so even on the very steep uphill/downhill sections, our confidence grew.
On our return to the ranch we were treated to a marvellous BBQ feast. Meat, salads, bread, never ending wine and lemonade. It was truly magnificent and honestly the best steaks ever. Big thanks to Ezekiel, Cecelia and EstefanÃa for welcoming and spoiling us.
The communication was excellent prior to the trip, transport was punctual and thanks to Fabian, the drive there and back was uneventful considering the terrain.
I highly recommend this day as you will have such a fabulous time in such an amazing backdrop.
