Buenos Aires: The Pampas Argentina 2021
Welcome to Argentina, the land of horses. There is no better way to immerse yourself in the culture and traditions of these places than to gallop through the pampas… .quechua in the indigenous language, which means “plain without trees”. La Pampa expands in the center of Argentina until the Atlantic coast. Crossing this singular territory will aim you to experience peace, serenity and freedom. Not infrequently you can see the gauchos, during the siesta, with the typical wool poncho and the characteristic headdress while sipping the Mate.

In these days you will have the opportunity to gallop in the vastness of the famous Pampas and to appreciate the Argentine horse, perfectly trained by the gauchos for working with livestock.
There are various activities in the saddle that you can do in these days: working with cattle, barrels, exploring the banks of the El Gato river, visiting small villages in the area, such as Almada for example, excursions on original 19th century carriages.
