Indagare Tours: Estancia Day-trip

Buenos Aires may be Argentina's indisputable center of gravity, but the fertile plains known as pampas that make up much of the country's vast interior have played just as pivotal a role in its history. Once the domain of hardy gauchos and fearsome caudillos, they are now home to cattle ranches and splendid country estates. Visit the charming village of San Antonio de Areco, capital of gaucho lore. Then head to a nearby estancia to spend the afternoon indulging in pastoral pleasures, starting with a lavish parrilla lunch. Before heading back to the city, catch a polo scrimmage or saddle up for a private lesson. While certain estancias are ideal for children, others cater primarily to adults; contact Indagare's bookings team to learn more about planning a día de campo.
