Gaucho Culture in San Antonio de Areco

The colonial town of San Antonio de Areco dates back to the 18th century and has retained much of the gaucho traditions. Here, mastercraftsmen share their knowledge of silver and leatherwork using skills that have often been lost due to new technology and time.

Every November, a festival is held in San Antonio de Areco called Fiesta de la Tradición and sees gauchos from all around gather to celebrate in traditional wear. It is a great time to learn and appreciate this culture that is such a big part of Argentina.
Go back in time by Visiting a Estancia in The Pampas

Estancias used to be grande mansions owned by some of the wealthiest families in Argentina. Over time these private homes have opened to the public, allowing people to visit them and learn about how gauchos used to live.

Spend a day in an estancia to immerse yourself into gaucho life by horse riding, eating traditional lunches and maybe even cattle herding. Bigger Estancias offer the opportunity to spend a night or two in their ranches to immerse in the history and culture of this region.
Enjoy a Tango Show and Dinner

Tango, the famous and passionate dance, is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. This dance was originated in the urban lower classes in Buenos Aires and Montevideo. The customs, beliefs and rituals of European immigrants descendants and the natives were merged and transformed into a distinctive cultural identity. Therefore, if you are in Buenos Aires, you can not miss the opportunity to see a tango performed live in the place where the tango first originated.

You can also enjoy this unique experience with a delicious dinner accompanied by a full-bodied Malbec.
Enjoy the local Gastronomy

The legacy of immigration in Argentina left behind varied customs that are carried forward up to these days. That is why the Buenos Aires cuisine is mostly Italian and Spanish, with French touches and a little bit of pure local taste. You have plenty of options to enjoy the local gastronomy in Buenos Aires, from elegant restaurants to local markets and small restaurants or cafes.

Visit San Telmo or Palermo neighbourhoods to sample traditional street foods such as choripan, empanadas; a variety of classic parrilla cuts of meat; wines; and artisanal 'heladeria' ice creams.
Explore the Delta Tigre

Before it enters the sea, the Tigre River breaks into a tangled web of little streams separating hundreds of small islands. The larger of these have small towns and are famous for summer homes of people from the city.

Enjoy a relaxing cruise on the canals of this "rural Venice," passing gardens and upscale vacation houses. See some beautiful attractions, like the San Isidro barracks, Olivos Port, University City, and River Plate's Stadium, called "the Monumental".
Wander around Tandil

Tandil is a quiet city on the edge of the Sierras de Tandil mountain range that perfectly encapsulates Argentinian life. Wander through the small streets and admire the architecture of the buildings. Visitors should take part in the local tradition of picadas, a board where cured meat and ham, and a variety of cheeses, are served as an appetiser.

Due to its proximity to the mountains, Tandil is excellent for those who enjoy activities such as hiking and bouldering.
Go Beyond Argentina Visit Colonia, Uruguay

Colonia's historic center has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
