Best single day tour we've had...

Ron_H, Apr 2026
Carina was outstanding! We were able to see all the must-see spots throughout Buenos Aires and without feeling rushed. In fact, Carina and our driver Maxi made us feel connected and just like friends on vacation together. Her 25 years experience touring the city shows as she is very knowledgeable about all things Argentina. We felt truly entertained throughout the tour and it was not too wordy - or a history lecture, but more about experiencing the history, trends and social atmosphere of this most cosmopolitan city. We tried the unique food, walked the neighborhoods and experienced the diverse culture - very fun. Highly recommend for a great experience.

Jennifer_D, Jan 2026
Carina is super knowledgeable and friendly. We had a long list of things we wanted to see and miraculously we got to most of them without feeling rushed. It was a great day - we learned so much about the city and the history of so many places we visited. I would recommend Carina as a guide - she is amazing!

Took My Breath Away

Kenneth_N, Dec 2023
Carina surprised us with the amazing El Ateneo Grand Splendid Bookstore, which took my breath away. When I entered, my remark was "Oh my goodness!" She provide us a very extensive tour of Buenos Aires, however we chose not to go to Cafe Tortoni due to congestion caused by protesters of the newly elected President; also the wait in line to see Evita's tomb was longer than we wanted, as we are 75 years old.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Thank you very much!! it is always nice to hear such a surprise you had touring Buenos Aires with me! thank you again!

The Best City Tour Ever!

Susan_K, Mar 2023
Carina and her driver provided a full-day tour that took us to all the important Buenos Aires neighborhoods, and told us the complete history behind everything we saw. The tour was customized to our preferences, and we were always completely safe. We highly recommend Carina and this tour if you're English-speaking! You'll learn and see everything in BA that's important. Thank you, Carina and Enry!

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thanks to you for letting me have an enjoyable day!!!! Welcome back at any time you want! Cheers! Carina

Carina - The best in Buenos Aires Private Day Touring

Stephen_E, Feb 2023
We arrived in BA on 2/7/23, and were taken directly to the Viking Jupiter. The cruise ship dock is not convenient at all for getting into the city, and the Buenos Aires top highlights are quite far apart. We only had the next day to see Buenos Aires, so we chose to hire Carina for a private day tour of the city. Carina is just plain fabulous. We were picked up right on time and chauffeured around in a Peugeot with driver, Enrique, who got us quickly to each site, dropped us off and was waiting close by when we were finished. Carina is thorough, flexible, and engaging. In 7 hours we got to see Retiro, Recoleta, Monserrat, San Telmo, La Boca & Caminito, Puerto Modero, and Palermo districts and their highlights, had lunch together at a local place, and got back to the cruise terminal in plenty of time for our departure. If you’ve only got one day in Buenos Aires, and you’re looking for an entertaining, professional tour by a well-organized tour guide, Carina should be your first choice.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thank YOUUUUU Stephen!!!

A Careful, Candid Tour with Carina

Belinda_A, Apr 2020
Carina Lago is an articulate and knowledgable tour guide who gave us an extensive Buenos Aires 7 hour tour. She knew exactly how much time we should spend at each of our 16 chosen destinations. We never felt hurried or harried, rather we felt the day was at our leisure though we were actually fully busy. In addition to providing us with essential details as well as the overall picture of each highlighted area, Carina also commented upon daily life in Buenos Aires, in Argentina and in South America in general. Good-natured and with a witty sense of humor we were never bored and full engaged with our tour guide through-out the day. Carina has our highest recommendation.

Response from Host, Apr 2020

Dear Belinda! I enjoyed a lot our day, thank you for your words, they really made me move in these days of incertitude. A big huge here from Buenos Aires your new friend!

Excellent Day Out

Perry S, Dec 2019
This tour was perfect despite the very rainy day. Carina, out guide, was both extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her city, but more importantly, a lot of fun to be with. We got to see a lot, learn a lot, and laugh a lot. We would highly recommend both the tour and Carina.

Response from Host, Apr 2020

Perry, Thank a lot for your words, this is filling my soul! I wait you back here in Buenos Aires when ever you want! Warmly Carina

Fun informative tour

Carina was extremely knowledgeable of this amazing city. She was very accommodating to all our requests. Highly recommend

This tour is a must especially if...

WILLIAM_C, Mar 2018
This tour is a must especially if you have never been to Buenos Aires. Carina, also the owner of the company met us at our hotel with a van and driver for our party of 4 and after getting to know us and our interests we were off. We all felt a much greater appreciation of the city after visiting the Cathedral Metropolitan where the current Pope served, the oldest Coffee house in the city and Government Capital Buildings. We were then off on a short walking and shopping look at the extremely colorful San Telmo district. She helped in finding a place for a local lunch. We covered all the neighborhoods surrounding the downtown area and she explained the local architecture and customs. The tour ended with a visit to the famous Recoleta Cemetary where the tomb of Evita Peron lies where Carina was a fountain of knowledge. We can not recommend this tour enough, we would have spent 2 to 3 days seeing everything we saw in 7 Hours. Carina was knowledgeable, extremely fluent in English and the van was perfect.

We were fortunate to have Carina of Carina Tours as an our guide. Besides all known landmarks and usual tourist attractions we were shown several other places/areas which helped us to understand and appreciate Buenos Aires much better. Garina is a very educated person with an optimistic radiant personality. She made this day very memorable and enjoyable. Buenos Aires is a very interesting cosmopolitan city. We stayed there post-cruise for 3 days and don't regret it...We highly recommend to have a private tour for at least one day...Money well spent... I
