Jose made the experience... - Jose made the experience great! Picked up at the hotel promptly and drove out to his ranch where I met Pinto. Was a beautiful horse and rode well through the Andean foothills. Ate a nice BBQ in front of a rushing stream. Fun overall and will be back.

Book this NOW! - Coming from Ohio, an experience like this is near impossible to have. Horses, mountains, rivers, rolling hills, a warm family welcome, incredible food, and incredible wine. Coming into this, I really did not know what to expect.
We were picked up from our hotel by Jorge, a very kind person and a peaceful presence. We drove to the family's farm and were greeted instantly with love. They invited us into their beautiful home and made us coffee and breakfast. They had bottled water, coffee, bread, homemade jam, and meats and cheeses. Jose and his family got to know us over a relaxing breakfast.
Next was the horse ride! I expected to find a horse like how Ash found Pikachu- meant to be. And I was paired up with the sweetest angel, Pinta. We met our new friends and set off for the ride! We spent the next few hours roaming the hills and the mountains. I was absolutely floored. The entire time you are surrounded by pure beauty. Even the dirt is gorgeous! We trotted about and saw Jose's cows and goats and a few other of his horses.Â
Near the end of the ride, it started to hail... That was a little scary, but Jose took the reins. Literally. He was calm and guided us all safely back to his house. The horses were incredible. Thank God for Jose!Â
We had lunch next, the asado. Wow. Amazing meat and veggies, paired with a tasty malbec from Mendoza. After lunch we enjoyed some melon by the river. Yummy! I have never felt more welcome in a home that was not my own. Jose and his family are one of a kind. They are so generous to host this experience. And at the price offered! If you asked me how much I would price this experience, I'd say priceless.Â

Spectacular! - Jose, the guide, was wonderful and his English was good. Jose and his assistant were very nice and hospitable. It's a long drive to his ranch, but definitely worth it. He provided a lovely, homemade breakfast and was very attentive to us during the horseback ride, which was long (but not too long or too short!) and had beautiful scenery full with mountains, river, cows, horses, and geese! We returned to a fabulous BBQ with his ranch's beef, corn on the cob, salad, roasted vegetables, and plenty of wine for a late lunch. This was served at his riverside gazebo on the ranch along with his assistant.

Wonderful Trip - We had an unforgettable day of horse riding, made even better by the warmth and hospitality of our guide and his wonderful family. From the start, he was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we were comfortable and prepared for the ride. We had the pleasure of meeting his family, including his adorable son, who was eager to help with the horses and seemed to love sharing the experience with us.
As we rode through the stunning natural surroundings, our guide pointed out interesting spots and shared stories, which added so much to the experience. The landscape was breathtaking—wide open fields, peaceful trails, and picturesque views at every turn. It felt like a true escape into nature.
After our ride, we were treated to a delicious homemade lunch, which his whole family helped prepare. The meal was simple but heartfelt, and it felt like we were part of their family for the day. Every detail, from the company to the incredible scenery and the personal touches, made this day of horse riding something truly special. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and heartwarming adventure!

A wonderful ride! - What a wonderful experience! This is something you cannot miss on your travel to Mendoza. We were picked up promptly at 8am for a two hour drive to the Ranch. There we were greeted by many sweet dogs and free roaming horses. Breakfast was delicious. The meats, cheese & bread with caramel really got us ready to ride! Jose introduced us to our horses and we went on our way! Jose held up the front and answered any questions we had and his 7 year old son Fauto in the back singing along! Lunch was served after our ride and we had plenty of wine and relaxing time before our ride back. This was so special to be welcomed into their family home and share a meal with them. Great family and great time!

Great Time with Horses & Hosts - We had a very enjoyable time on the horseback ride - our first time in the Mendoza area and a chance to experience the outdoor scenery with very nice hosts. We were welcomed with a delicious breakfast that included exceptional "fresh" orange juice. Highly recommend this tour for people wanting to experience the "real" Argentina landscape.

An amazing experience! - We are a family of 4, beginners at riding and had an amazing time - it was everything we hoped it would be and more!
We were collected on time from our accommodation in Godoy Cruz for a 2 hour transfer to the ranch, where we had a lovely breakfast and met the 2 other riders.
Jose then took us all for a long ride along easy trails in the foothills with beautiful views in all directions. Then we had a generous, relaxing lunch of fresh steak and salad and plenty of wine, grilled by the river while condors were flying over. An amazing experience!

Incredible scenery - It was a great tour and definitely recommend. It was quite far from Mendoza so appreciated the tour pick up from hotel. The scenery while riding the horse was incredible. Horses had great temperament and well cared for.
