Don Silvano Ranch Day Trip (Gaucho Day in Buenos Aires)

Itinerary

Board a comfortable bus at your Buenos Aires hotel and head out into the Argentine pampas. Attend a friendly welcome reception upon arrival at Estancia Don Silvano that includes juice, wine and traditional empanadas. Visit the ranch's bakery and its museum before attending a milking demonstration. Help the gauchos milk the cows yourself if you like, then watch as they saddle up the horses. Climb on a tame horse and enjoy a relaxed ride through the surrounding countryside. After the ride, eat a barbecue lunch (chicken, ribs, sausages, potato salad and ice cream for dessert). Watch a traditional Argentinian folkloric show including singing and dancing while you enjoy your beverages (wine, soft drinks, coffee and water). Get on your feet and try out some of the dances yourself before opting for a carriage or tractor ride to view other parts of ranch. Watch the gauchos participate in ring racing and other demonstrations of their incredible horsemanship. Your full-day estancia (ranch) excursion on the pampas ends with drop-off in downtown Buenos Aires.
