Description

Escape the city and immerse yourself in the essence of Argentine rural life at a traditional estancia in Pilar, just 45 minutes from Buenos Aires. This is not a tourist show — it’s an authentic countryside experience where you’ll live a full day as the gauchos do. Be welcomed with homemade empanadas and a glass of Malbec or lemonade under the shade of native trees. Enjoy a traditional Argentine asado (barbecue), with the finest cuts of meat cooked over an open fire, accompanied by fresh salads, rustic bread, and local desserts. Throughout the day, witness live folk music and gaucho skills, including horseback demonstrations, juego de la sortija (a traditional game), and the use of boleadoras — all performed by true rural horsemen who live this tradition every day. For those who love horses, optional guided horseback rides are available across the beautiful landscapes of the estancia, surrounded by native flora and open skies. No experience is necessary — the ride is adapted to your level. If you’re coming with children or prefer to relax, the estancia also offers hammocks, picnic areas, and open fields to unwind, take in the views, and connect with nature.
