Patagonian estancia — country day and spit-roasted lamb

Half-day service to a Patagonian estancia in the El Calafate area, with hotel pick-up and transfer in a tourism vehicle. The programme opens with an introductory talk and a sheep-herding demonstration with sheepdogs, followed by a walking tour of the ranch grounds —shearing shed, corrals and kitchen garden— where hand shearing with scissors is shown. Lunch is served in the quincho and includes spit-roasted Patagonian lamb, empanadas, salads and dessert. The service runs with guide included and on a shared basis with driver. Approximate duration is 5 hours. The programme may cover a midday or afternoon slot depending on the booking.

Booking & policies

Are the prices shown net or retail?

Rates are net (wholesale) and reserved for travel agencies and tour operators, who sign in to see them and add their own margin. Public visitors see a reference “from” price, indicative and subject to availability; the net rate is never shown outside the B2B Portal.

What happens after I book?

When you book, we receive your booking and start working on it: it shows as “In process” and we let you know of every update. Vouchers are sent once payments have been received.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellations are governed by the conditions stated in each quotation. The standard conditions are: more than 30 days before arrival, the deposit is non-refundable; 30 to 15 days before arrival, 50% of the total price is charged; less than 15 days before arrival or a no-show, 100%. They may vary on peak dates and depend on the policy of each hotel and service. Certain destinations — Patagonia, the Amazon region and high-demand dates in peak season — apply stricter terms, stated in the quotation. Conditions stated in the quotation and accepted by the agency at booking take precedence over the general schedule in Clause 7.1 of the Terms.

Can dates or passenger names be changed after booking?

Amendment requests must reach RUMBO LIBRE at least 72 business hours before the service begins. Changes are managed subject to availability, and any resulting rate difference applies. For private services, a name change may require re-issuing the booking at the current rate.
