Welcome to Northern Patagonia!

"Muchas gracias de corazon, thank you from the bottom of my heart, for a wonderful holiday which reconnected me with nature, with the beauty of a simple life, with importance on trust, reliability, authenticity and passion for life and work. Lina is not only a great tour guide, she is a wonderful communicator and organiser with attention to detail and strive to perfection to make this horse trip and cultural experience to an unforgetable one and most authentic one. I loved the vast landscape, the dry ruggedness, the strenght and reliability of our horses (going pathes I would not have dared by myself), the delicious meals at lunch and dinner (lamb, goat, stews, asado...) and not to forget the invigorating mate and filling tortas fritas. Thanks for organising all this, to give me the chance to experience Gaucho life in its beauty, simplicity and hardship, yet pride in work, land and animals. It truely opened my eyes."

"More than a extraordinary adventure, by its landscapes, its variety and its gastronomy, we have met extraordinary characters. For their human qualities, their passion for their farmer profession and now for their work as tourist guides, those Gauchos fully deserve that success be at the end of the challenge. To all of you, thank you and good luck to Soliecol!"

"I came to ride a horse in Patagonia, I did a lot better than that: an inner journey with Elsilina and Ceferino who took care of us, prepared delicious meals in the morning, at lunch and dinner, sometimes in tuff conditions... It was THE horse ride of my life, especially when Lina lent me her horse Thorgal, a big and brave one which brought me trust again: I hadnt' to do anything because it did the best by itself!"

"Here is an association which has the merit to demystify the Gaucho's image for the northern hemisphere. The investment of all this people is strong and entire, Lina proves that a lot of bravery and time is needed in order to build this bridges of trust. I have wonderful memories from this horse riding, I have met engaging souls (...) who gave us a great lesson of humility. Thank you for this unforgettable experience!"

"Thank you for a wonderful week! Super horses, beautiful mountains and great company (and don't forget the food and wine!). We both enjoyed it very much, even Rogier and his painful bum... It was great to learn about the life of the Gauchos and meeting all of them. Love!"

"I always repeat that nothing in life happens for nothing : more one time I realize how true it is! A pure chance makes me read your announcement on a website as I was looking to buy a horse! Immediatly I felt trust in you and I knew it would be an extraordinary experience. I can't thank you enough for this week by your side, with Gauchos and their families. Icredible people, wonderful landscapes, amazing horses... A PERFECT WEEK!!!"
