Estancia - Day Trip from Buenos Aires
 
My husband and I (& another couple) are going to Buenos Aires for 8 days or so in January. We would like to do a day trip (dia del campo?) to an estancia. Any recommendations?
Thank you.

Close to Bs As we enjoyed estancia dos hermanos, great day, you ride horses or if you do not like riding you can take a horse driven cart, great food, bar b q, pool, ...in all it was very pleasants owners are there and that makes a difference. Try
www. www.estancialosdoshermanos.comif you like riding as we do, they go out of their way to match with the right horse for you.

Take a look at the reviews of this place, which may or may not be the kind of estancia you want:

I am pleased you also liked the Dos hermanos estancia , I had a great time there.( a couple of years ago)
Actually I spent over two months, only came back on the end of October. Had a great time
lots of fun .Great weather.

I am wondering if it makes any sense to go to an estancia if we know for sure that we don't want to ride horses. Are there some where the other activities would make the stay worthwhile?

I believe that DOs Hermanos is mainly for persons who ride horses. Unless you wish to settle for a horse driven cart. i am sure there must be Estacias with some kind of a gaucho show....
