We have never ridden horses so were somewhat reluctant but turns out that most other people who came on our day were equally inexperienced - it really doesnt matter as the horses here as so well trained that you have nothing to fear! The Estancia is very picturesque and is a great escape from BA - we had excellent weather and the light on the fields and trees was very beautiful. Riding was not really the highlight for me (v sore afterwards!) but im so glad we went as it was just great to be out in the countryside seeing another part of Argentinian life. Our horse guide Alexandro was extremely knowledgeable and helpful - and best of all was the lunch - 3 courses of fantastic bbq meat! I think out of the (many) meals we had in Argentina this was right up there - i know food tastes better outside but it was also due to the delicious meat and the great outdoor bbq - very succulent and smoky - YUM!!!! we paid $135US which included a days riding (about 3 hours split over 2 1.5 hr sessions), lunch, dinner (also yummy!), accomodation (nice - quaint - self contained house - open fire, rustic furnishings - not 5 star but really comfortable and felt quite authentically gaucho rather than a tourist version (I could be completely off here and real gauchos might scoff but the whole place felt like the real mccoy), and breakfast (typical forgettable argenitian one - but you will still be full from dinner). The driver was extra - $58USD each way from BA to Estancia. Would recommend including an overnight stay (one is plenty unless you are really into horseriding) as it was lovely to be there at sunset/
sunrise with the animals/peace and quite. It was a wonderful day - beautifully relaxing countryside and good to be doing something different on holiday (makes a change from pounding the streets to look at tourist attractions/find the next great meal), Highly recommended!

This is an excellent estancia to visit for the day to get out of the polluted capital and enjoy some fresh air. Four hours of horse back riding and an amazing asado (barbeque) makes for a memorable Argentinian experience. The staff are very attentive and keep close to beginners on horseback. For advanced riders, there is lots of cantering and the scenery is picturesque. You will no doubt catch glimpses of burrowing owls and native birds.

Dos Hermanos is a great excursion both for visitors and expats living in Buenos Aires. It is a horse lover's perfect retreat. Cabins are also available for rent for anyone wanting a longer stay, and also a nice option for families or a group of friends.

Great horses, warm and accommodating owners and fabulous food , what more can you ask for?

Getting away from the hustle of the city and spending a day at this estancia is a treat. You'll be picked up for about $120 rt so try to arrange it with another couple. Bonnie, the gracious guide will great you with wine and cheese. Unfortunately, it's succumb with flies, but you'll try to overlook it because of her graciousness. Next, you'll be fitted with gear and ride the beautiful trails in an estounding setting.

You'll feast on a variety of meat, salad, and dessert. Again, grab quickly before the flies become overwhelming. (you'd think they'd use Citronella candles or netting.) You'll then ride again and do some trotting.

Later, you'll relax on hammocks or take a swim. You'll be entertained watching the well taken care of dogs, and pity the malnourished cat with her hungry kittens, that must find food on their own. Many of us fed them our lunch.
Aside from the flies and starving cats, you'll be happy you spent a day there.

In advance of our April 29 visit, the owner of the estancia, Ana Pena invested an amazing amount of time, patience and effort to accomodate my family's rather complex special dietary needs.

Truthfully, we expected her to bow out of the planning process as it became quite detailed and demanding, but she chose to stay the course!!!! Suffice to say, we were grateful that she was able to integrate our 'special' meal into the overall ranch experience.
And with the quiet assistance of one of her friends, Alberto, who was quite familiar with our dietary situation, the execution was as smooth as the planning. Kudos as well to Veronica for the actual food preparation.

Our guide for the day was named Bonnie, ably assisted by the gaucho Don Juan. While she was new to the ranch, Bonnie exuded the confidence and easygoing and engaging manner of someone who had been there many years. She definitely transcended the normal and expected role of guide, to be our friend for the day. We appreciated her flexibility in slowly ramping up my kids' requests to go faster, as the day progressed.

Our overall experience is similar to other reviews- lowkey, simple, authentic, friendly. There is no hype, no frills, no upselling at this ranch, which we found quite refreshing.

Expect to be startled 12 hours after your ride, that you have lower back muscles that you had no idea ever existed before your ride at Los Do Hermaos!!!
