Gaucho Ranch El Ombú de Areco

In San Antonio de Areco, we take a panoramic tour, admiring the corners without chamfers, a tradition of our countryside. We'll visit iconic buildings such as the San Antonio de Padua Parish and the Bessonart grocery store, among others. You'll also visit the Draghi goldsmith's workshop (optional) and the Navarro rope maker, both internationally renowned.
We head to the ranch, located a 20-minute walk away in the middle of the Pampas plain. After a brief introduction to the property and a lovely horseback (or carriage) ride to explore the property's 350 hectares, you'll be invited to enjoy a delicious barbecue lunch served, weather permitting, in the shade of ancient trees or in the ranch's lounge. You'll then have the opportunity to admire a demonstration of gaucho skill with a horse and its gentleness, as well as traditional Argentine music and dance.

    This excursion offers the opportunity to explore San Antonio de Areco and Estancia El Ombú, both recreationally and culturally. Areco is one of the last towns in Argentina that jealously guards its customs and traditions, preserving the figure of the gaucho as an emblem of its identity. You'll also visit an authentic ranch in the humid Pampas, El Ombú de Areco, to enjoy an authentic Argentine picnic. At El Ombú, you can spend the day immersed in nature, customs, and typical Argentine foods.
