The pick-up was perfectly and on time arranged. The drive to the ranch was already beautiful in itself. They have beautiful horses. Very well trained, not scary at all. We loved the trip, the views, the climb to the top of the mountain. The gauchos on the horses were very experienced and I felt very safe. The food afterwards was very good, also for vegetarians! Overall a great experience, I would highly recommend!

Stella is a wonderful host and owner of the ranch where our ride took place. Our guides were great and the horses were all really well trained. The views at the top of the mountain were spectacular. The asado at the end was tremendous. Really, really delicious. Recommended!

Full description

Head out of the city of Mendoza and into its mountains for a horseback ride from a ranch. Learn about Argentina's rich riding culture before tucking into a delicious, local barbecue with the ranch owners. End your excursion feeling at peace and as one with nature. Meet your driver in Mendoza and head straight for the mountains on a ride that takes approximately one hour. Meet the ranch's owners and their horses, the latter of which will carefully be picked out for you. Get to know your new companion before hopping on the saddle. Explore the local trails and mountain landscapes, with a 15-minute break so you can take snapshots of the panoramic mountain views from 2100 meters above sea level. Back at the ranch, tuck into a typical Argentine barbecue with cuts of pork and beef accompanied with salads, roasted vegetables and excellent quality wine. After dinner, head back to Mendoza full of food and peace from time spent in nature.

What an amazing experience and fun activity to do while in Mendoza! Stella and her gauchos were great and made us feel very safe while riding horses in the mountains. BBQ dinner after was excellent and the driver (Daniel) was so prompt. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an adventure off the beaten path!
