Beautiful ranch, great and welcoming people, stunning horseriding experience... and best asado ever eaten!!! Special thanks to our gaucho, that guided us in our first experience horseriding, and to Enrique (and his wine)- We spent such a good time that tears came out when we left!! Just go there! More

I did just the half day horseback ride and WISH I had stayed for lunch. I would strongly recommend that you do stay for the lunch... it looked and smelled so good! Alas, I was asked in the morning if I was staying, and I had declined. When our ride was over, I was having so much fun that I... More

We spent 3 days on the ranch and can recommend staying there. Enrique is very entertaining and makes you feel like you are at home. The food was just amazing: lunch was a combination of tasty salads, veggies and some of the best meat we have tasted. Lots of wine too ! The accommodation was great also. En-suite room that... More

We enjoyed two nights and a full day's riding earlier this month and enjoyed every minute. Enrique is the Perfect Host and he even moved the daily asado (barbeque) to the dinner one of the days so we could experience it (tight schedule!). It was a wonderful asado with perfectly prepared and grilled cow and I managed to easily set... More

Enrique is a passionate host who puts on an incredible feast after a long morning of riding. A little spanish goes a long way with the Gauchos and Enrique. They cater to all levels from first timers to pros and you will never push you beyond your comfort zone. We met quite a few people who were staying at the... More

This was an amazing experience. I am a backpacker but am from the wild west so I thought I would splurge a little and stay with them for 2 nights and three days. I gained 5 lbs and drank more wine than I have in a long time! Its a beautiful area with beautiful and wonderful people who work there.... More

My family and I just returned from a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Argentina. One of the highlights for us was Sayta, run by Don Enrique, and his wonderful daughter, Laura. In the middle of the Argentine Norte is Sayta Ranch. This is a place unchanged by time, where the horse is still an integral part of people's lives. The ranch is... More

Got picked up at the hotel by another crazy women driver took about 1 hour to get to the ranch. There were alot of people there we meet at the ranch to have breakfast first. People from all over traveling. Horseback riding with the GAuchos was so much fun, they were great, attentive, they helped the beginners, talked to you,... More

My husband, sister, brother-in-law and I had a fantastic time at Sayta Ranch! From the moment we arrived, the owner Enrique, made us feel welcome. After a light breakfast, we set out on a ride with the group, which included people from several different countries. Amélie and the gauchos interacted with the group and made sure everyone was doing well... More

Enrique is quite a character and your guaranteed a good day out. The horses are in fantastic condition and very well trained, even a complete novice can "drive" one of the horses! (like me) Our Gauchos were very professional and great fun. The country-side was really beautiful. I wish we had known, we would certainly have stayed for a couple... More
