Travel & Leisure’s article on Best of South America’s Haciendas brought attention to the windswept pampas of Argentina, the cattle ranches of Argentina, where haciendas are known as estancias, where it is possible to get a taste of the bygone era of the world of the land barons and the Club de la Union. It’s an unforgettable experience to ride on horseback to experience the Patagonian estancias in the surrounding areas of Torres del Paine National Park and to enjoy the estancias’ homey feeling and comfort, sharing together with local people a delicious lamb barbecue cooked in the Patagonian style. One of the grand tours to consider, to which estancia stay can be added, is the In Depth Argentine & Chilean Patagonia tour.
