Estancia El Bordo de las Lanzas — Attraction in Municipio de El Bordo

I spent a magical 4 days on the Estancia with Agustín and his extended family in February 2022. It was the best experience of my time in Argentina, and one of the best travelling experiences I’ve had. This is so much more than a place to stay - it’s an immersive experience in the history, traditions, and modern life of an Estancia. The Estancia itself is beautiful - the bedrooms are large and full of family antiquities and you can also use the many shared spaces, including beautiful gardens and a swimming pool.

During our stay, every meal was served in a different part of the neo colonial house, something we greatly appreciated.

A stay here is a must when visiting Salta. We really recommend taking a ride on the horses over the vast fields of tobacco and sugar crops...

Going to Estancia El Bordo is like entering another world where you surrounded by warmth, grace, and fascinating history. The part of the ranch house where guests stay is filled with centuries-old artifacts, fireplaces, furniture, beamed ceilings, and artwork. The staff is friendly and kind, and the food is delicious. We loved having meals out on the grounds in different places for every meal. The horse-back riding, cooking lessons, barbecue, rides around the ranch, long walks, and other activities were fun and informative. We really enjoyed having Brenda see to every detail. Plan to...
