All about the trip

Escape the city and get a glimpse of “the simple life” by visiting this wonderful estancia (ranch). Don Silvano is an authentic Argentinean Ranch where agricultural-cattle work is an everyday way of life. Luckily for us, Don Silvano opened its doors to visitors eight years ago, allowing them to learn about all the interesting parts of the gaucho life. A gau-cho [gou-choh] is a “South American cowboy usually of mixed Spanish and Native American Ancestry".

This tour will delight all of your senses, starting with a welcoming reception in the traditional Rancho de Adobe. Here we will be treated to empanadas wine and/or juice. This is a great opportunity to socialize with everyone and feel at home.

After the reception, you will have some free time to explore the grounds. You can be adventurous and choose to go horseback riding, or you can indulge your cultural side with a visit to the bakery or the museum. The options are limitless!

After you have worked up an appetite we will be invited to partake in a parilla, which is a traditional Argentine barbecue. At this time we will be treated to a folkloric show of dancing and singing with a few surprises along the way. The entertainment doesn’t stop there - after the show, the gauchos will showcase their skills.

Before returning to Buenos Aires, we will get to drink some mate, which is the Argentine national drink, along with some wonderful desserts. This day trip may just be the highlight of your time here in Buenos Aires!
