Now having been at the estancia for 8 years, she has undertaken virtually every job here, from chef, to riding guide, head of marketing and house manager. Her diverse experience allows her to expertly oversee guest care, ensuring every stay is personalized and unforgettable. Georgia is committed to making your time at the estancia as special as possible.
OUR GAUCHOS
Our dedicated team of gauchos has been an integral part of Estancia Los Potreros for four generations, working alongside the Begg family for over a century. Today, Yoni, Lucas, Pachi, Tommy, and Franco proudly carry on this tradition, with their families deeply intertwined with Kevin’s. Gauchos hold a vital place in Argentine culture, embodying the heart and spirit of the estancia, where their skills and knowledge are central to the day-to-day operations and the authentic experience we offer our guests.
From expertly herding cattle on horseback to maintaining the land and sharing their profound connection to the Argentine countryside, the gauchos bring a rich sense of history and craftsmanship to everything they do. Their unique blend of tradition and expertise allows our guests to witness and participate in the gaucho way of life, whether it's riding alongside them, learning about horsemanship, or enjoying an authentic asado prepared with their hands. The gauchos' warmth, dedication, and unmatched skill truly bring the essence of Estancia Los Potreros to life.
