Great!

Feb 2016

I really enjoyed this experience. Cafayate is not so nice as Cachi, but it is worth visiting because of the activities it offers, such as wine tasting. Visiting this goat cheese farm is a great experience. I love goat cheese so i was really looking forward to this visit. Our tour guide, Jairo, was really nice and we learned a lot about the process of making goat cheese. At the end of the visit you can taste different cheeses. I really recommend this place!

Enjoyable but they disappeared before we could order more cheese

Jul 2013 • Family

We rented bikes and rode out to the goat farm. It was a fun ride and we enjoyed the tour, though our elementary Spanish made for only limited comprehension. The cheese sampling at the end of our tour was yummy and we decided we'd order some to snack on at their picnic tables outside, but when we went to order it, they told us they were closing. Everyone was very nice but I think they should try to accommodate their visitors. There was quite a crowd on our tour and we were the last ones in line. I guess their siestas are important it was a bit disappointing.

Great Experience.

It was very cool to take a tour of this establishment, and you actually learn quite a bit about the process of making goat cheese! I was never a real fan of goat cheese from the States but they have six different versions of it that are seriously incredible. Good tour, good cheese, goes well with their wine!

I walked an hour just to be rudely kicked out

Aug 2018 • Solo

TOTAL WASTE OF MY TIME! Some dog followed us from town (not that we didn't try to chase it away for 2kms) and when we arrived, we were basically yelled at for bringing a dog in. When i said it's not my dog and I wish it would go away, the lady rudely answered 'it followed you, so you take it away'. Note: it really was following the Argentinian couple who arrived ahead of us (but hey, surely if a couple of argentinians walks in, a dog walks in 20 secs later and 2 gringos walk in 20 secs after the dog, the dog was following the gringos?!?) When i explained that we tried everything, she just told us we had to leave because the dog would follow us and scare the animals. Thank you, I do realise this. What I don't understand is, if you don't want strays in, why do you you keep your doors wide open for every strays to come in??? Surely if the gate had been closed we could have gotten in an left the dog out?!? Then we kept try to chase the dog away in front of the lady, and asking her what we should do since it was not moving, she didn't bother to answer. I already didn't feel like spending a single cent there after such a welcome, I had a look at the cheese (all hard paste) and the price (a steep 550 pesos for 3 samples) and decided that I'd rather keep this money to myself. Let's be honest, for this price you'll get about a kilo of goat hard paste cheese in a Yorkshire farm! And Yorkshire is not somewhere where you'll be followed by stray dogs. Bottom line: avoid to go there unless you have a car (with all the dogs roaming free around you're guaranteed one will follow you), don't go if it's soft paste cheese you're after and don't go if you appreciate politeness.

We walked from town, it's roughly 2.6k's and a very enjoyable walk east along Córdoba street. We arrived and didn't do a tour as we wouldn't understand most of it (we have basic travel Spanish only). We asked for a tasting plate which was $10pesos each, and took it outside to enjoy. We picked our favourite flavour which we then purchased for $65pesos, however different flavours cost different amounts.
It was a very enjoyable morning and took less than 2 hours.

Mm mm good.

If you love cheese, go and do the tour here! I am from Wisconsin, the dairy state of the USA, but have never actually seen and learned how my favorite food is made. Rather than cows, which they do actually have here, I learned the process with goats and then got to try the most delicious goat cheese I have ever had. If you buy some goat cheese for 25-28 pesos then they don't charge you for the 10 peso tour/tasting.

Great tour and great cheese

Dec 2017 • Family

We really liked the tour, the guide explained everything in detail, answered all the questions and gave us time to see and interact with the goats. We were with children and she was really patient with them also. We really enjoyed the tour and the cheeses later, they were delicious.

I hope you have lots of time to waist.

Nov 2017 • Couples

It’s too bad the customer service is not as good as the cheese. After walking twenty minutes to get there we were told it was too late for a tour but they did give us a free tasting. They informed us to return the next morning,no set time given. We returned the next morning only to be told we had to wait for a group to be formed. After waiting fifteen we asked how much longer we had to wait and we were told may be 5 minutes or maybe two hours. Cafayate has a lot to offer so we didn’t waist our time waiting indefinitely and they lost out on the sale of the cheeses we wanted to buy.

Great fun !

We walked from Cafayete center for a good half an hour to Cabras de Cafayate where we've been nicely welcomed. We had a walked around by ourselves without explanation (otherwise it's not free but 50/pax) and had a cheese tasting for free.

Bad timing and bad costumer service

May 2016 • Solo

Sometimes is just a question of bad timing and/or unwillingness to go the extra mile. Upon arrival the welcome was quite friendly and I was informed that I had just missed the guided tour, but if I paid the entrance I could visit the farm by myself. I would get to taste some to the cheeses when I returned. So off I went to see the goats, cows and lamas on the farm (not much more). When I came back to the reception and anticipating the cheese, I was courtly informed that the farm was closed and I had to leave. I asked if I could at least try the cheeses (that were already on a serving platter), but with a sour smile was again asked to leave since the farm was now closed. I understand I got there late, but I was not informed at the entrance that it was nearing closing time and that I should rush. Moreover, to give me five more minutes to enjoy the cheese would not have required much on their part. It is lamentable the lack of friendliness and customer service. The walk to the farm is about 20 min, from the town center. Time your visit, with a guided tour as otherwise you will not get much information.
