Horseback riding in Mendoza through its magical landscapes: a full day to experience our regional culture. At Don Daniel mountain hut you will get to know the Cordón del Plata and enjoy typical Argentinean activities, such as drinking mate with sopaipillas (a deep-fried pastry), or eating a great asado (barbecue) in the mountains.

Incredible service and experience! They pick you up from hotel, drive you all the way to base of Andes, and give you breakfast, a horseback tour with incredible views, the best bbq cooked over fire in the mountains and then drive you all the way back to hotel.
They are all super nice and went out of there way to accolade us. My wife is gluten free and we stopped at a grocery store to make sure we picked up necessary food.
100% would recommend!

The sunset horseback ride with Destino Montana was incredible. It was easy to coordinate, the staff were all friendly and Joaquin shared a lot of knowledge and laughs. I’ve only rode a horse once before and they made me feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend getting the bbq as well. It was simple ingredients of high quality so tasted amazing. The views were stunning, like nothing I’ve seen and very impressive since we started higher up in the Andes front range. Having a real gaucho on the ride made it extra special. Top travel experience!!!

We did the hike and BBQ lunch and had a wonderful time! Pablo was a great guide - could not have asked for anyone better. Pablo accommodated everyone’s needs and went out of his way to help my 72 year old mother.
Would highly recommend.

Under clear skies, we enjoyed the best tour of our three-week Argentina trip. Even as a first-time horseback rider, I had no issues; the horses were well-trained. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, speaking fluent English. Daniel, living the genuine gaucho life, led us into the Andes and prepared an excellent lunch for us. Overall, it was an incredible and memorable day, highly recommend!

Highlight of our trip! The scenery, the horses, and the team are all wonderful: from confirming the arrangements via WhatsApp to dropping us off back at our accommodations, our guides were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
After arriving at the ranch, meeting the gaucho and animals, and a refresher on horseback riding (no experience needed), hours of incredible vistas in the mountains and an outdoor meal of probably the best bbq I have ever had. They even accommodated dietary restrictions. A perfect day and unique experience, recommended to anyone visiting the area. Thank you so much!

My fiancé and I loved spending the day with Don Daniel. Our guide, Lorenzo, was very friendly. He shared so much about the country, the region and the gaucho lifestyle. The horses we had were very sweet. The horses definitely knew the terrain and we felt safe even going down steep hills! The scenery was breathtaking. We will treasure this day trip forever. We highly recommend it for those looking to do something that is out of the ordinary.

Start to finish this was an amazing experience that I am so excited that I got to share with my wife and parents. From the drive up past Lago Potrerillos with Lorenzo to the amazing hospitality of Don Daniel and his family. The day was start to finish amazing and by far our favorite activity in Argentina (above wine tasting, tango classes and 5 star restaurants) the views from the top of the ride, the conviviality of the asado and the experience of being on those amazing horses will stay with me for a long, long time.

I cannot recommend this trip highly enough. It was a really authentic experience and we loved every minute of it. Joaquín was our point of contact and he was very helpful. We were picked up from our hostel and brought to the mountains to meet Don Daniel and his family. We set off on horseback up the mountains with 3 others and 2 guides. The scenery will take your breath away and the guides are exceptional. For lunch we had a traditional asado and lots of wine and cheese with an amazing view. Lorenzo was our personal guide and he was so attentive and passionate. We didn’t have much experience with horses but never felt uncomfortable. We are nearly half way through our South American trip and this has been the absolute highlight. The memories will stay with us for the rest of our lives.

Tim was excellent! From the moment he picked us up to the end of the day, we had a great time. As experienced riders, we appreciated the attention to detail and the not-overbearing attitude. The food was incredible.
