Los Gauchos Outfitters in South America
Our hope is that after careful evaluation and comparison, it will become obvious to you that our standards are simply higher than those of our competitors.
We are able to maintain these standards by managing all properties in-house, without any outside influence from booking agents, or third parties. Our employee-owned organization focuses our talents in one very specialized area: wingshooting and fishing trips to Argentina - Uruguay and Peru.
We never intend to become a one stop shopping "megastore" of hunting and fishing destinations. We do not wish to be like a WAL-MART-type "adventure travel agency". As you have probably noticed by now, our price structures are unique, and offer the sportsman who chooses to become an educated consumer the best value available in the market today. However, we are not a bargain basement; but instead, a specialty store for discriminating international wingshooters who believe that the quality and value of the total experience goes far beyond just pulling a trigger.
Bird Hunting with Los Gauchos Outfitters:
- Very comfortable and even slightly elegant accommodations. Los Gauchos has the lodge or estancia for large groups plannning a wingshooting trip in Uruguay or Argentina or family run estancias highlighting the culture of South America.
- Excellent bird hunting with family and professional guides in Peru. Safe, exciting bird hunting in the Andes Mountains.
- Well-maintained, very high quality shotguns included in the package. Benelli and Beretta are just two of the gun manufacturers Los Gauchos maintains in stock.
- A desire to shoot over expertly trained bird dogs. Perdiz hunting is included in several of the Los Gauchos hunting packages and the joy of hunting Perdiz over well trained dogs is invaluable to a wingshooter.
- A complete worry-free package that is as all-inclusive as possible in every respect.

Owner
The owner is an avid waterfowl hunter and angler. A true leader for the Los Gauchos Outfitters team who has taken risks, been in the field with hunters and bird boys, scouted and baited the lands so he knew first hand the hunting would be good, and finally understands people are taking a hunting trip to South America. First and foremost are the clients getting on the long flight to South America who love to hunt or fish. So with renewed optimism and a clear sense of commitment, Los Gauchos continues to offer the best hunting and fishing in South America.
Hosts
First one you meet
We all have a motivation behind our South American hunting trips. To find out why the hunting is so good in Argentina, Uruguay, and Peru. Or our motivation might be to experience South America and see it for ourselves rather than read or hear about it. Whatever the reason, our hosts are the first individuals you meet when you get your passport stamped and enter the country of Argentina, Uruguay, or Peru. They speak English and keep the group together while also offering answers to your questions and showing a little about each city and culture in South America.
Fishing Guide

Chefs at Los Gauchos Lodges
Expert Cooks
While most of our chefs are not recognized and revered culinary stars, they could be hands down. The offers we have received to just "send" Juan to my house or ranch are amazing. The important thing is our chefs love to cook and enjoy showing off the recipes that are a part of Argentina's, Uruguay's, and Peru's history. You will see foods or restaurants that claim they are true South American in menu, but until you have traveled and tasted one of the many dishes of the Los Gauchos chefs, you will see and taste what good cooking is in South America.
Bird Hunting Guide
Hunting Guides
Los Gauchos bird hunting guides are top quality with a passion for bird hunting and experts of the country, grains, bird varieties, and weather patterns. They spend so much time before and after the Los Gauchos bird hunt for scouting, baiting, and reviewing the area or new areas for bird hunting. Hard to describe the value of a good bird hunting guide, but when you hunt with Los Gauchos Outfitters you will have a new definition for bird hunting guide.
