In 1993 Gonzalo Llambi founded “Cerro Indio Safaris”, a company that is known worldwide for its highest quality of hunting and its excellent service.

During the early years Cerro Indio Safaris focused mainly on rifle hunting. As time went by and archery became increasingly popular the company made a strategic decision to begin promoting bowhunting as well. Through constant and serious dedication in order to attract more bowhunters the company spent a large portion of its time and budget, over a period of quite a few years, to develop an excellent program. Cerro Indio Safaris is now considered the most experienced and reliable company in South America for archery outfitting while also maintaining its excellent reputation for rifle hunting.

For the bird hunting enthusiasts Cerro Indio offers outstanding hunting venues strictly under their control and operation. The company offers both duck and partridge shooting as well as complimentary dove and pigeon shooting in the province of Buenos Aires. In the beautiful northern province of Santiago del Estero they offer the high volume wing shooting that Argentina is so famous for.

Cerro Indio Safaris most recent outfitting project, also in the Santiago del Estero region is Fly Fishing. We discovered during our wing shooting activities in the area that this province with its unexplored pristine streams provides an excellent opportunity for anglers to fish for one of the most sportive freshwater fish in the world, the Dorado.

Gonzalo Llambi, founder of the company, has a degree in agricultural sciences but a long time ago he became a Professional Hunter. He started sport hunting at an early age in his family´s Estancia, learning important skills from local “gauchos” that taught him the secrets of the game, the woods and the land. All PH´s and staff working for Cerro Indio Safaris are deeply committed to the philosophy of the company, thus dedicating all their efforts to achieve the highest standards in terms of hunting and service.

Cerro Indio Safaris maintains operations in various different provinces and districts in Argentina but the most popular destination is “Acelain”, the immense family owned Estancia, founded in 1902 by Gonzalo´s great grandfather, Don Enrique Larreta, a famous writer who envisioned the creation of a fantastic haven in the rolling hills of the area.

Positive proof of the amazing experiences that hunters and guests take home with them when leaving Acelain is that it is included in Patricia Schultz’ best seller “1000 Places to See Before You Die”.
