Gaby was knowledgeable and fun! We had a variety of food and learned so much about the food culture of Buenos Aires. She knew the answers to anything the group asked- history, traditions, how the food was prepared. Palermo was an interesting area to explore. Lots of unique stores and the murals really made the area charming. And the food and wine were delicious! So happy we did this!

Our tour guide was Kiki. She took us on a fabulous journey experiencing local food and culture. She was so knowledgeable about Buenos Aires. She created such a warm experience and the 5 other people in the group all bonded. This was such a great experience I highly recommend taking. One of the best things we did in Buenos Aires

Here’s Johnny!!!

Tomaria_G, Mar 2026
I loved this tour! Listen to other reviews when they say don’t eat before the tour. We did the evening tour and we were stuffed until the next day. The food was delicious, the drinks were great! Everything! Not to mention-Johnny our tour guide was excellent!!! Very, very entertaining! So friendly, informative and just a joy to be around. There was ten of us total but it still felt like a small group. He really went out of his way to accommodate everyone without it taking away from the collective. We laughed joked and had a lovely time. Thank you Johnny!

Great food and great guide make for a fantastic time

patric_g, Mar 2026
Both our guide Lu and the good was fantastic! This is a more restaurant focused rather than street food / mom and pop shop type tour. Lu was humorous, informative, lively and kept the entire group engaged and made the time fly by. My adult daughter and I both loved it and can recommend it.

Gabi was amazing

This is the absolute best food tour. FRANKIE did an amazing job of explaining Argentina food origins, culture and history. Let’s this be your sign to sign up for this tour.

Delicious, fun, and perfect!

Amy_H, Mar 2026
Oh my goodness YUM!!! Do not hesitate to book this- we got a huge variety of types of foods which I felt like represented the beautiful fusion of cultures that is in Buenos Aires. Denis was our tour guide and if you can request him, do! He was so energetic and fun to spend the day with. He has great taste and relationships with each stop ont he food tour. This was more of a sit-down food tour. We walked a good amount to each stop but then sat at each place to truly enjoy the food. Come with an empty stomach, really! We almost got breakfast before and were so glad we didn’t! You get so much food for the value and it is all so delicious! We got to enjoy staples like steak and empanadas which you expect but the other cuisines and food were amazing and loved learning about them! We enjoyed bottle of wine at two of places as well. You will not be disappointed- book this you are a foodie!
