This rate is truly all-inclusive and represents excellent value for money. As an extra temptation, anyone staying 7-nights or more will also get the following:
- a trip by vehicle to Santa Catalina Jesuit estancia or Candonga church, two of the
most famous landmarks in Argentina
- a wine-tasting of local wines
- a half day polo session with tuition and the chance to play some 'chukkas'
- a demonstration by our horse-breaker on our style of working with young horses
- an organised photo shoot of our herd of beautiful horses galloping on the hills
- gaucho skills afternoon . . .watch the gauchos in action taking part in some of their
favourite activities, such as lassoing, and then have a go yourself!
The Argentine winter months are ideal for a stay at Estancia Los Potreros, as it is the dry season and days are clear and bright, whilst evenings are cool and you can relax in front of the fire before retiring to bed with a hot water bottle.

Argentina is a fascinating country and offers an enormous variety of activities. It is also a country for all seasons, not just somewhere to visit during the European winter. Argentina remains great value for money, and the people are charming and friendly.
Argentina combines the best of so many worlds – whether you are looking for a riding holiday on an authentic Estancia, a wildlife experience, staying on a working wine property, marvelling at the Perito Mereno Glacier, hiking or climbing, cycling or just exploring and enjoying the stunning scenery. As well as all these (and more) you have the elegant city of Buenos Aires with its wonderful restaurants and lively night life. And the tango!
Please browse through our suggestions and then let yourself be tempted to book a holiday in this exciting country.
We love Argentina and are always happy to chat about any details – our staff know the country personally and will be delighted to give you their first hand suggestions for your holiday.
When to go : Argentina is a year round destination because the climate varies dramatically from North to South. The far South is very cold from the end of April to October, as the far North is uncomfortably hot and humid (and wet) in the height of summer (early December to the end of February). The rest of the year is perfect for most areas - and do not forget that there is excellent skiing in the European summer.
