Dotted around the vast, flat pampa
we find delightful old estancias, which continue to retain their colonial
elegance and charm. Perfectly juxtaposed with the cosmopolitan Buenos
Aires, the estancias offer a chance to step back in time and imagine
life as it was generations ago. Here one can relax, ride, watch the
gauchos at work and enjoy an authentic/ unbeatable Argentinian barbecue.
