You should definitely consider taking this side trip while on vacation in Buenos Aires. It is a surprisingly refreshing change from the bustling city scene and is also a pretty authentic representation of a bygone era. The food is delicious and presented in a truly authentic way. The entertainment is excellent and not at all kitchy. There was abundance of everything and multiple helpings were immediately granted though not necessary. We met good people both local and international as well as families with kids. What a magnificent experience.
Food very good. Greatly enjoyed being met with wine and empanadas. Gift shop does not take credit cards but will take various currencies. Shows were enjoyable.
Very cool ranch. The staff is awesome. Our favorite was an older man who has been there 36 years. When you arrive they greet you with awesome fresh, warm empanadas. There’s horseback riding and a shoe after dinner with dancing, and a gaucho show. Neat variety experience.
Great stage show of local dancing and music. Tango show included. Horse show and races were followed by guests riding the horses on the ranch. Lunch was good, plenty of beef and we had a vegetarian lunch as well.
Very beautiful horse ranch. Upon arriving they greet you with wine and homemade empanadas. Horses are friendly and horse ride is simply and pleasant. Food is cooked and served fresh from their large fired brick grill. Tango show and chances to dance are excellent.
A great way to experience a bit of Argentine culture.
Good place for foreigner to feel tango and other argentina culture, the most exciting part for me is to watch the horse racing show, the player are kind and skillful.
De quoi passer une bonne journée, après un barbecue d'enfer à voir en spectacle toute une série d'activités traditionnelles des gauchos
Que Rica comida! Buen servicio! Muuuucha comida. Buenas actividades y buen show . Lo recomiendo
We began with a scenic drive into the famous Pampas of Argentina, home of the Gauchos. Upon arrival at the Estancia Santa Susana, we were welcomed with typical empanadas, delicious pasty-like mouthfuls of pastry, beef and veg, along with cups of white or red wine. We had a stroll around on the farm, I took a horseback ride, then watched the Gauchos prepare our barbecue, called asado al asador. At noon, we sat down together and feast on a meal of the Gauchos. There were salads, then the gauchos brought round chorizo sausage, blood sausage, slabs of beef, mounds of chicken then a final treat of lamb. The meal finished off with a nice desert and coffee,
After lunch, the Gauchos played traditional music and show how they dance in the Pampa. I dragged my wife up to dance and we joined a group of ladies who were dancing too. We had a good time.
To conclude the day, the Gauchos mounted up and began their display of horsemanship. Their skills seemed almost unbelievable, but these men do almost literally live in the saddle. The display started with one of the gauchos tying brass rings to strings hanging down from a goalpost -like affair. The gauchos then thundered up at a full gallop and tried to capture one of the rings on a pencil-like device. When they managed to catch a ring, they went up to the crowd and gave the ring to a lady in exchange for a kiss. My wife got both a ring and a kiss. A great day and a lot of tired people going home.
A real taste of Argentina of mid-XX century
Love this place a real Gaucho show and Argentinian Asado
