At a glance

For many, Patagonia summons up an image of a remote, hostile wilderness, grasslands plateaus buffeted by screaming gales, ice-cold lagoons and insurmountable glaciers, just inhabited by hardy rough-haired mammals and scavenging birds. 

It was at the end of the 19th century when these lands stopped being vast unexplored areas and became part of the country in an active and tangible way.

In this trip, we propose you share that pioneer’s experiences, staying in truly centenary Patagonian “estancias” (Our ranches or farms, fully commercially operated today) built and hosted family pioneers, located at remote location. It feels like being in the middle of nowhere, but here you will receive a perfect combination of comfort and homemade cuisine, enjoying a truly memorable experience Taylor made just for you, obviously not a tour for massive travelers or big and noises groups.
