Located outside of Buenos Aires, Estancia Don Silvano is a popular destination for tourists. On a day trip to this ranch, visitors may get a glimpse of the gaucho culture of Argentina, where cowboys, or gauchos, are known for their amazing equestrian skills. Horseback and carriage excursions, singing shows and folk dances during lunch, ring races, square races, and boleadora demonstrations are just some of the things that take place.

Day trip to Estancia Don Silvano
Take a horseback ride and learn about life in the ranch
Enjoy a delectable lunch of Argentine BBQ paired with wine.
Involves minimal physical effort and is typically associated with leisurely activities. Activities are low-intensity or last less than a few hours each day.
Don Silvano Ranch offers a day in the countryside with true Argentine flair. You will be greeted with some local empanadas and a glass of wine before exploring the farm. The crops, native vegetation, and a big colonial-style mansion will captivate you. You will ride in a carriage, learning about the legacy of the Italian Silvano, and then you will learn how farmland is worked on board a tractor.
At lunch, you will enjoy a BBQ with typical salads and drinks to suit all preferences. Then, a delectable dessert. Meanwhile, enjoy a live show that incorporates all of Argentina's rhythms, including folklore and tango. Then, back in the field, a display of the best Creole talents involved gauchos and horses.
While taking advantage of the ranch's amenities, such as the soccer field, kids' games, and pool in the summer, you will have a traditional afternoon snack of mate and fried cakes.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).
The entire experience was great. Erin really knows her stuff and provided me with a lot of great insight and advice.

Adventure Life did an excellent job of planning, organizing and executing a great trip to Argentina. It was nice to have the trip with just the two of us which allowed for a more personable tour with excellent tour guides in all four locations visited. We learned lots of details of the beautiful sites in BA, Mendoza,Baliloche and Iguazu Falls. We want to do another trip with Adventure Life some day.
