Since then, we have had a wonderful time escorting golf travelers from all over the world, such as Canada, USA, South Africa and Europe to the main South American golf destinations as Argentina with Buenos Aires, Mendoza, The Falls, and Patagonia, as well as Brazil, Chile and Uruguay.
Tour Operators from USA, Canada, U.K, Australia, Nordic countries and Asia trust in our services. We've had good years with good times and our plans for the future are more of the same, only high quality services and the best hotels & golf courses for our travelers. We are not only specialized in the golf business, as well in the luxury business and a combination of both.
At present time, we are members of ASTA (American Society of Travel Agents) and one of the first argentine IAGTO members (The International Association of Golf Tour Operators) that sets trade standards for golf tour operators worldwide, it has over 1400 members from 50 countries and is widely recognized as the global trade association for the golf tourism industry.

It is a design with narrow fairways, rough grass and a magnificent grove in which pine and pacara trees (a hard wood tree typical of the city of Salta) prevail. The greatest difficulty of the course is in its small greens; and the high temperatures typical of the north of Argentina, make the greens very fast and little receptive. The evening will be at leisure to enjoy some of the local culture and flavors of the city. DAY 11: Breakfast and departure to Cafayate, with an English or Geman speaking guide. Starting from your hotel. Driving along the fertile Lerma Valley, you will pass different towns like Cerrillos, La Merced, El Carril and Coronel Moldes.
