Must-do fun experience - My dad and I had the chance to do the horseback riding adventure with Cerro Frias, and it was one of the best decisions we made on our entire Patagonia trip! First off, it was very convenient: they picked up and dropped us off right at our hotel. Once we got there, we were greeted by the staff, who were so kind and took into account every individuals’ riding experience to ensure a very safe ride for all. The horses seemed to be well taken care of, and were mostly very calm, shout-out to my horse Luna! We were in a group of maybe around 12 people, and you’re on the horse for around 1.5 hours total. The views were so beautiful, a stunning landscape with snowy peaks in the background. After, we had a three course delicious lunch consisting of bread, pea soup, lentil soup, and a chocolate brownie. I would totally recommend this to anyone looking for a unique way to elevate their trip in Argentina!!!

Nature and horses - I was a bit nervous because I’ve never done this before but LEANDRO and LUCAS were great teachers and made me feel very comfortable and confident. I had a lot of fun and learned from them a lot about the beautiful nature and animals of the area. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Best horseback riding! - The experience was amazing, I went with my husband and my daughter who is an advanced horseback rider and we had so much fun! The terrain was amazing, we saw cows, wild llamas, ostriches & hares.The entire ride was about 2 hours, and it was one of the best two hours of my life. Our group was just my family, which was really nice. And the lunch after the ride was amazing and so filling. Our tour guide LEANDRO was amazing and telling us the history and information on the land and the horses! IF YOU ARE IN EL CALAFATE YOU MUST DO THIS EXPERIENCE!!!
