I think this has been one of the best holidays I had so far. I had everything I was dreaming of, tango, milongas in Buenos Aires, horse-riding with gauchos, the best "asados" and the most wonderful people to share all this with. Dante and Lilie have been absolutely amazing, making sure we could have an insight "real" experience of the true Argentinian life! The whole experience has been fantastic. The north of Argentina is a real gem; and I was thankful we went during this time too, when it wasn't too touristic. Lilie and Dante have looked after us as if we were family. They have always been by our side, always so kind and helpful; I can truly recommend them. I have enjoyed every moment during this wonderful trip and will keep in my heart all the beautiful sights and dancing. Thank you so much for sharing with us your fabulous homeland Dante. I adore Argentina and I adore both of you.
