BEST cultural experience with my family
424savannahl, October 2026
I am a student studying in Buenos Aires and my grandmother came to visit. I had gone to this same estancia when I first arrived and knew immediately that I had to bring my family here. I have fallen in love with Argentine culture and wanted my grandmother to experience it as best she could while she was here. The best way to get a full immersive cultural experience is not only spending a day at an estancia but specifically choosing this group to guide you. Our guide was Ailin and she was AMAZING! I cannot stress enough how great she is. I speak Spanish but my grandmother only speaks English so I was really nervous about the language barrier, but this company offers guidance in multiple languages, so I definitely recommend for tourists who don’t speak Spanish. Even though the tour was in English, we still received equally as much cultural immersion and understanding of the history of the importance of gauchos in Argentina. The price might seem high at first sight but it is worth every cent. You definitely receive a quality experience for the price. Again, I have to mention the guide, Ailin. I would consider requesting her specifically if possible. She is so knowledgeable, kind, energetic, and genuinely interested in hearing about the people on the tour and where they’re visiting from. Ailin is the absolute best!! Definitely don’t pass up this amazing opportunity to experience the glory of Argentinian culture!

Kecia_M, October 2026
This was my favorite activity in Buenes Aires. I loved seeing the countryside, and thoroughly enjoyed the horse ride, the music, the dancing, the dinner, the company, and all people we met, employees and non were friendly, helpful and made sure we have a spectacular time. They also care well for the animals as well, which was important to me.

Gaucho ranch tour
MarkFidell71, October 2026
We booked a Gaucho Tour while in Buenos Aires, with Signature Tours which was a great day out. Our tour guide Ailin was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful to all within our small group. The family who lived at the ranch were so friendly and took pleasure welcoming us all into their home, explaining their way of life, providing bbq food with plenty of drink, giving us the chance to ride a horse and finishing with music and dancing.

Jose_S, October 2026
It was one of the best experiences I have had in Argentina. The team that took us to the El Ombu hacienda, Sofía and Diego, were excellent people, especially Sofia, who was present at every moment. Her kindness 1nd her knowledge of what we were going to enjoy made the experience even more worth being part of that group. The treatment at the El Ombu hacienda and the special events completed a perfect stay for a wonderful Sunday.
