What a fun day! And so many unexpected experiences from visiting a fabulous basilica during mass to sampling the official Argentinian cookie. We learned so much about Argentinian history, architecture and culture. Johanna was such a wonderful quide. So passionate about her country. This is an experience not to miss. Worth every penny.
