did you know...

"The introduction of the royal Spanish monopoly (Estanco Real de Tabaco) on tobacco in 1799 ….is deeply hated by the people. The entire tobacco harvest has to be sold to the government, and to prevent or limit smuggling tobacco was concentrated in only one place. Inspectors travel the country burning plantations found outside the authorised zone, and inform against those wretches who dare to smoke their own home-made cigars. These inspectors are mostly Spaniards, as insolent as those doing the same job in Europe. This insolence has greatly contributed to the maintenance of the hatred between the colonies and the metropolis." (von Humboldt, Personal Narrative of a Journey)

Testimonials: Hello Laura,

We had a very good time in Argentina and Uruguay. The accommodations were good. The two guides we had were very good. The guide in Buenos Aires (Monica) was excellent.

The day at the Argentine ranch was very enjoyable. Our Grandson had a very good time there. The food was good and we liked the dancing.

Thank You,
