Upon arriving in San Antonio de Areco, we will visit Osvaldo Gasaparini’s atelier and historic house as well as, the Museo Gauchesco Ricardo Guiraldes and the Pulperia La Blanqueada. The latter was a type of general store where all goods were sold and it was also a bar and area where the gauchos gathered. San Antonio de Areco allows you to see true Argentinean countryside. At the ranch you will enjoy an Argentine barbecue and spend the afternoon at leisure; you can swim in the pool and explore the town further. Dinner included.

In the morning after breakfast we will travel to Lobos through typical villages of the Pampas. Lobos was once known as the ‘Town of the Pulperias’ as some of these stores were the settings for stories written about Juan Moreira, a famous gaucho from the area. After lunch you will get the opportunity to go horseback riding or sulky riding which is in a cart pulled horses or indulge in other countryside activities. Dinner included.
