As a native of Buenos Aires, Andres showed us his city and told us about its history complete with personal photographs. We saw all the highlights of the city including a stroll through Recoleta Cemetery along with commentary from Andres on its history. A great way to spend the day while waiting for an evening flight.

Amazing overview of Buenos Aires

Karen_C, Feb 2026
Our travel plans were delayed due to the strike which alteredcairline travel. So instead of 3 days to explore Buenos Aires we only had 1. I am so glad we took this tour. Florencia was an amazing tour guide and Nico was a great driver. In 6 hours we were able to cover most everything of note and visit all the various neighborhoods. I highly recommend the tour especially if your time is limited

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hello Karen! Thank you so much for taking our tour and for your nice words! Florence is very happy to have received such lovely feedback! Kindly, Andres

Wonderful day in Buenos Aires!

Best tour guide ever!!

kathy_W, Jan 2026
My husband and I just experienced one of the best tours we have ever had. We travel a lot and frequently use online sites to book excursions. Our private tour today of Buenos Aires was fabulous and ranks in our top 2 or 3 tours ever! This was 100% because of our tour guide, Lourdes. She is a rare gem and we feel like we hit the jackpot. We saw everything on our list and much more. Lourdes’ teaching was excellent. Between sites our lively and spirited conversations in the car never stopped. We feel like we have had a master class in “all things Buenos Aires and Argentina”! Lourdes was kind, insightful, smart (REALLY SMART!!!), engaging, and just very lovely. We are so thankful for today’s tour with Lourdes.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Wow Kathy! Such a lovely words!!! You are right Lourdes is a really nice and special person! She loves her profession and she is very responsable, we really appreciate your words and she was moved to tears when she read them! Warm regards for you and your family! Andres

Great way to end our fabulous trip!

Ana was great, took us around the city, we saw all that we wanted to see, especially Recoleta Cemetery....she told us about the history of Tango and one of our couples "demonstrated" , had food at a local eatery, it was all so great! She is very passionate about her love for Buenos Aires, it's history, it's people and the community! Really great way to end our fabulous trip!

Full day Buenos Aires Private Tour

Angela_M, Dec 2025
This was an absolutely wonderful private tour of Buenos Aires for four people with a driver a tour guide. Brenda was our tour guide and she took us all over the city and gave us so much information about the history of the city, monuments, political background as well as the culture and modern times in the city. We learned more than we ever could have from a guidebook and saw as much in one day as possible. It would have taken a week on our own. We looked in corners you would never think to for small pieces of history and shops and eateries along the roads. We had a wonderful experience.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Dear Angela, we are glad to know you and your family enjoyed Buenos Aires and the tour with Alexandra! Thank you so so much for your nice words! Kindly, Andres

Claudia_S, Dec 2025
After booking we were able to easily communicate with Andres through What’s App. He provided our tour guide, Alexandra’s contact info which helped tremendously as our friends had a flight delay. Alexandra was very kind and flexible. She catered the city tour to our wishes as she shared interesting history and important sights of the city that we would not have seen on our own. Alexandra’s easygoing and engaging personality added to the fun and personal experience. This is a great tour to introduce you to BA!

Dear Claudia, thank you so so much for your feedback and specially thank for your kind and nice words to Alexandra and me, please if you need anything from Buenos Aires, don’t hesitate to contact me all put team is always at your disposal! Kindly, Andres

Jane_R, Nov 2025
Enjoyed our day, interesting places. Would have been good to have seen a little more of Buenos Aires

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you for tour feedback Jane! Yes, Buenos Aires is a big city, in a 6 hours tour we try to show you as many thinks as it is possible and we have visited all the highlights and your tour guide provided you a complete introduction to our history and culture. The idea of a private tour is to spend a nice day, exploring the city in a relaxed and safe way, we don’t offer rushed tours, but of course since the tours are private you can ask to the tour guides your preferences at the beginning of the tour

Great tour of Buenos Aires

Amazing tour in spite of BA weather!

Hector_D, Sep 2025
This tour was really worth the time! Even though we had a little bit of a weather predicament (extreme downpours and thunderstorms in BA) our tour guide made sure we made the best out of the trip. He adapted the tour so that we wouldn't feel bored while spending most of the time in the car, was prepared with a photo book to show us some of the history and older photos of the city to compare (some of these were taken by his family so it was really personal) and overall when possible we did take some really nice photos with our family. The food recommendations were next level too! Weather aside, this tour was fantastic and would do it again if possible!

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Hector We are glad to know your have enjoyed your tour in BA with our guide Andres! Kind regards for you and your family!
