Estancia El Ombu de Areco

Reviewed By MaureenAlaska - Darwin, Australia

A friend who had visited Buenos Aires recommended that we visit a ranch to experience the hospitality of the ranchers and the gauchos. We were welcomed with cold drinks and empanadas beside the lovely old building dating back to the 1850’s. We wandered around the beautiful parkland with its many old trees and found some very colourful parrots. Then over to the horses to decide whether we would go horse riding or go for a ride in the buggy. We chose the latter and thoroughly enjoyed the ride along the track beside the paddocks. By this time, we were ready for the amazing Barbecue lunch with a lovely wine under the shade of the old trees. So much delicious food that I could not think of eating any food that night. The entertainment came next with the gauchos performing their traditional dances. A young gaucho showed us how they tamed their horses which was so tender and beautiful. Then it was time for the long drive back to the city after a thoroughly enjoyable day.

A very nice pine tree park with some sand dunes. A windmill farm (for clean energy) is located nearby. You can visit by car, bike or walking. Some camping spots inside.

Torre Tanque

Reviewed By 99MD2015 - San Francisco, United States

Magnificent city icon and the thought it was designed to contain water for the inhabitants nearby seems like an architectural extravagance. At first sighting, we thought it was a fortress overlooking the Atlantic ocean and overseeing maritime activity. Nope, just a colossal water tank.

Basilica de Lujan

Reviewed By rafaelfV1636NL - Naucalpan, Mexico

My wife and I have been in Europe and Argentina several times and when we first visited Lujan we were amazed to see what it looked like any of the European Cathedrals we have seen. The stain glasses on the church are in such a marvelous state that no European Cathedral may show any better. The neogothic style of the Church is beyond impressive. Anyone visiting Argentina cannot leave the country without going to Lujan to see this artistic wonder.

Very nice and picturesque path near Carlos Paz. It is also very well maintained and signposted. Another example of a province that knows how to treat tourists with roads that are a beauty both in their landscape and in their maintenance. Many tourist places should follow suit

Delta El Tigre

The tigre delta is 45 minutes from Buenos Aires Argentina and flows into the Río de la Plata. One of its attractions is that it is quite a bit cooler than Buenos Aires, and offers as its main attraction houses built on the delta only accessible by boat. Tours can be had from Buenos Aires and pick up can be arrange from major hotels for a day trip. Or the more adventurous might choose to take the train, a direct link from downtown, although the station is noted for its pickpockets.
