Summary:
I spent 3 days visiting the stay near Esquina, Corrientes, accompanying and participating a little fieldwork: herding horses, cows and sheep, and also horseback riding through the baths. The attention of Darío and his team is excellent, they are super attentive and friendly. Horses, bred and tamed in the same establishment, are meek, active and very well cared for. The visit includes home-cooked meals and all drinks, all exquisite. I highly recommend!

Incredible experience with the horses of Gaucho Argentino. Animals in very good condition and easy to assemble. Very good crossing, even for the not very experienced riders! A great adventure, worth it.
