WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Plaza de Mayo
The May Square is located in the Porteño Downtown, neighborhood of Monserrat, in the area where the foundation of Buenos Aires took place. The Plaza de Mayo is the most important and oldest public square of the city. The name of this square commemorates the Revolution of May 25, 1810, date in which the citizens gathered around to expel the Viceroy and form a creole government. Since then, the Square has been a silent witness to the most important political and social events in the country.
2. San Telmo
San Telmo is an old neighborhood with a bohemian touch thanks to its temporary art galleries, night bars and street murals. The Defensa street, full of antique shops and bustling brasseries, passes through the Dorrego square, where many tourists come on Sundays to see the street market and street performances. Winding roads run through Lezama Park among jacaranda trees. The neighborhood is full of exclusive restaurants with tango shows.
3. La Boca
La Boca is a working class neighborhood that has several attractions next to the Riachuelo. Asadores and street artists mark the entire Caminito, a narrow alley flanked by brightly colored zinc houses that evoke its origin as an immigrant neighborhood. The Bombonera is the Boca Juniors stadium and a whole hotbed on match days. The Proa Foundation is a museum of modern art with temporary exhibitions and views of the old docks.
4. Caminito
Caminito is a museum alley and a traditional passage, of great cultural and tourist value, located in the La Boca neighborhood of the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The place acquired cultural significance because it inspired the music of the famous tango Caminito (1926), composed by Juan de Dios Filiberto.
5. Puerto Madero
Puerto Madero is a renovated neighborhood that faces the bay. Its renovated redbrick buildings house exclusive grills frequented by tourists and businessmen at lunchtime. There are also modern skyscrapers with multinationals and luxury apartments. The lakes in the area are surrounded by trails, as is the ecological reserve Costanera Sur, very popular with runners and families. The elegant suspension bridge of the Woman connects the ports.
6. Teatro Colon
The Teatro Colón is an opera house in the city of Buenos Aires. Due to its size, acoustics and trajectory, it´s considered one of the five best in the world. According to a survey conducted by the acoustic expert Leo Beranek and outstanding international opera and orchestra directors, the Teatro Colón has the hall with the best acoustic for opera and the second best for concerts in the world. Comparable with the most important lyrical rooms in the world, such as the Scala in Milan, the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, the State Opera of Vienna, the Royal Opera House (Covent Garden) in London and the Paris Opera, it is an unequivocal place of consecration for those who present themselves in it and an inescapable place for music lovers.
7. Retiro
Retiro is a neighborhood with great diversity and quiet streets. Art galleries and chic coffee shops lead to the emblematic and busy train station of Retiro, British style and surrounded by fast food stalls. The art deco tower of the Kavanagh building offers views of the Plaza San Martín, a steep park where office employees rest in the shelter of jacaranda and patriotic monuments. Tourists flock to the Florida pedestrian street for its leather goods boutiques, souvenir stalls and tango dancers.
8. Recoleta
Recoleta is a thriving area, ideal for walking, known for its Parisian-style terraced houses, ancient lavish palaces and luxurious boutiques. The National Museum of Fine Arts exhibits masterpieces by Argentine artists, and the Recoleta Cultural Center offers temporary avant-garde exhibitions. In the Plaza Francia, with lawn areas, there is a craft market on weekends.
9. Cementerio de la Recoleta
Cemetery can be visited at the end of the tour. One of the main attractions, which houses extravagant tombs of national icons, such as Eva Perón. Entrance ticket not included in the tour.

Very informative tour. Small minibus takes you to some of the major areas of the town. Left off in Recolata. Very useful to get your bearings in this big city with multiple very different areas.

Nice tour that allows you to have a global vision of the main neighborhoods and points of interest in Buenos Aires, so that, if you wish, you can then organize yourself and make your private visit to the place that most caught your attention or that most interested you. taste. The guides - God - were very competent - as are generally the people who work in the country's tourism sector - and they invited us to mate, they explained what social meaning the barbecue has, etc... while you pass by emblematic places (Casa Rosada, Plaza de Mayo...you are walking...) either on the bus or you have stops for a certain time (Boca or Recoleta, for example). Anyway, yes, I liked the tour, as long as you know that it is a tour to get your bearings and you will not get a tour to get to know in depth the places they take you to.

Excellent small group tour. Laura was brilliant and very knowledgeable. It was a combination of mini-van transfer around the city to specific venues and some [flat] walking. Just the right mix as we were in Buenos Aires for Easter Weekend and the weather was +30 C.
Great communication by signature tours pre tour. Collection from Hotel was on time, We were told who our guide would be in advance.
Our first time in Buenos Aires and altogether a great introduction to the City. Well worth the cost and would definitely recommend.

The title is straight from my notes and reflects the tour. Friendly staff & driver but limited photo opportunities but lots of good history and 3 hours +! It started badly as we were told 2pm pick up but by 2:30 we had given up and went back to our room! But 15 minutes later, phone call from foyer, they're here! So, we were the late ones as everyone else on board was kept waiting. I think the biggest problem was trying to fit in too much in a short time period? The tour needs to be a full day to cover what we drove around in 3+ hrs. Plus mainly, the photo ops were limited and the tour got to Recoletta Cemetery with the option to go in after it was closed! Need to restructure the tour I reckon!
