Review of Don Silvano Ranch near Buenos Aires, with horseback riding, asado, gaucho shows, mate, transport, costs, and practical tips.
“This was a really poorly organised tour! Boring! Food was burnt and was given great lumps of it! Couldn't get a horse ride or a buggy ride as ppl pushed in anc had more then one! Gaucho show was ok but nothing special Tour guide was not much and didn't drop us at the hotel although it states on the description they do I was not feeling well but still had to walk 2 blocks to get back to the hotel! Be wary of this tour!”

Review of the 16-hour Perito Moreno Glacier trip from Puerto Natales, with border tips, costs, guides, transport advice, and boat options.
“The glacier is beautiful, it is worth to visit. The tour is very long, 16 hour is a lot.”
Ride from Mendoza to Aconcagua, Puente del Inca, Uspallata, and Christ the Redeemer on a full-day Andes tour with guide and transport.
“Organização, o guia Federico e o motorista Matias foram ótimos. Paisagens maravilhosas!”
Ride from Salta through Yungas forest, Cuesta del Obispo, Los Cardones National Park, and the mountain town of Cachi.
“Gostei do grupo, incrível! a guia Gabriela muito acessível e conhecedora. fiquei desiludida porque não paramos na recta de Tintin nem na ida nem na volta. sempre chovendo quando fomos pela costa del obispo para lá mas quando voltamos já não chovia tanto, podíamos ter parado também. no geral valeu o dinheiro.”
Ride into the Andes from Mendoza, share mate at Don Daniel Ranch, and enjoy an asado at 2700 meters on this small-group gaucho day.
“A truly amazing experience - a friendly and knowledgeable guide (Matias), a thoughtful and well planned itinerary and an unbeatable visit to the beautiful mountains! This was worth every penny - a small group meaning that it felt intimate but big enough to make friends, and the horse ride into the mountains and back was beyond expectations. Then the food, some of the best food we’ve ever eaten cooked over a stone fire in the middle of nowhere. An absolute must do and would rate even higher if we could!”
Four days from Salta to Cafayate, Cachi, Salinas Grandes, Hornocal, and Humahuaca, with huge scenery, long drives, and hotel pickup.
“It was really nice, I loved, the region is really beautiful, the landscape it is incredible, the food really tasty, the guides was so nice, they tried to pass all information about many things, the history and culture. It is a good place to go.”
