Our instructor Matias, was delightful! He made the experience very fun and productive, in such a short time! Something that stood out to me the most was that I am in a same sex relationship and my partner enjoyed the lesson with me. He was very mindful to use non gendered language when discussing both of our roles in the dance, which I imagine wasn’t easy. Matias was a fun, great and very patient teacher. We had some much more fun than we expected! Thank you Matias!

We enjoyed the one-on-one time and learning about social tango. If you want to learn something new, book this! What a fun thing to do before going to watch a tango show later.

Thank you Amy! And we also offer the best milonga experiences in Buenos Aires, to connect even more with the local tango

The instructor, Martin, was very patient with us and in particular with myself who does not like dancing.
He is very encouraging and explains everything clearly
I would highly recommend this experience
Response from Host, Mar 2026

Taking a tango lesson in Buenos Aires - the birthplace of tango was an unforgettable experience!
Our instructor, Arts, was fantastic: professional, engaging, and incredibly patient. There were three couples in our group, and he made sure everyone felt comfortable and confident as we learned the basics. His teaching style was clear, encouraging, and fun, which made the whole experience enjoyable even for beginners like us.
If you’re visiting Buenos Aires and want an authentic tango experience, I highly recommend taking a lesson with Arts. It was a highlight of our trip!
Michael_S, Mar 2026
This was a most amazing experience. Our instructor, Arts-yes Art with an s, was so awesome. He was very patient and encouraging when he helped us with the basic steps. He explained the history of Argentine tango and how it differs from ballroom tango. A very fun lesson. We were sorry that we weren't able to stay in Buenos Aires longer so we could take a few more lessons from him. We would definitely return for a lesson with him.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We’re so glad you enjoyed the tango class! It’s always great to introduce beginners to tango in Buenos Aires in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Really fun experience learning Tango with a fantastic, patient and encouraging instructor. We had a great time!
Anne_G, Feb 2026
Hugely enjoyable hour spent with our instructor, Arts. We all managed to acquire some basic steps and an understanding of social tango. Art was very patient (I constantly confused left and right) and adapted the playlist/tuition to include dancing the birthday waltz as one of our group was celebrating a birthday. The cake and sparkling candle display were much appreciated little touches that made the session feel extra special. Art is amazing!
Tong_V, Feb 2026
This was a great experience for us. We booked three lessons and got Martin as our pacient tango-master. The best part of our Buenos Aires visit! Recommend this for everyone👍
Lily_R, Feb 2026
Great lesson with a patient instructor in a convenient location and convenient timing. It was nice to practice on our own as we learned.
James_K, Feb 2026
We were beginners and Marten was exceptional. Great experience. Time flew by. I wish we were in BA longer so we could have booked another lesson.
John_L, Jan 2026
Our instructor was very nice. He spoke understandable English, adjusted the lesson to our level of dance training and made the whole experience fun and informative. Totally worth it!
Lauren_M, Jan 2026
Celeste was our instructor and she was amazing! I feel like my fiance and I learned a lot in one hour. The studio they picked for us was also very cool in an old bohemian-looking building. Definitely recommend!
Sandy_K, Dec 2025
Super approachable and fun class learning the basic steps of tango. Our teacher was delightful and made us feel at ease.
Philip_K, Dec 2025
Friendly, authentic, fun and invigorating. As a non dancer you learn the basic steps and put them into a simple choreography. By then end of the lesson you’ve danced a tango! Brilliant. Gaby was an amazing teacher.
Parth_N, Dec 2025
The class is perfect for beginners! Great teacher and we were able to leave the class with a lot of steps to practice
Aarti_G, Dec 2025
Joshua is an exceptional tango instructor—patient, clear, and genuinely inspiring. I came in feeling nervous, but he instantly made the lesson feel fun and comfortable. What I appreciated most was his attention to detail—he doesn’t just teach steps; he teaches connection, posture, musicality, and the emotion behind the dance. Highly Recommend!
Ramona_R, Nov 2025
The dancing class was really fun, we enjoyed it a lot and got a good first experience with Tango.
The dancing teacher also took photos and videos of us which he wanted to send, so that we have a good souvenir. Unfortunatly we never got those.
Sara_S, Nov 2025
This experience was a gift to my sister and her friends during their stay in BA. They absolutely loved the tango class and raved about the kindness, patience, and skill of their instructor, Grabriela.
The company replied promptly to all inquiries and did an excellent job finding a studio as close as possible to where my sister and friends stayed. I couldn't be more satisfied by the experience from beginning to end.
lindsey_h, Nov 2025
Art was a very good dancer and was kind, considerate, and patient. Would definitely take another class with him!
Whitney_D, Nov 2025
Great introduction to tango! We have never danced before so it was at a good beginners pace for us and our teacher was great.
Jonathan_J, Nov 2025
This was a great lesson for beginners in Tango. Joshua was a patient and very knowledgeable teacher. Definitely recommend.
Lilet_N, Oct 2025
The class was wonderful. Joshua was a wonderful instructor. My Fiancée who couldn’t dance was able to dance the basic at the end of the class. Highly recommended.
Tomas_L, Oct 2025
This was a super fun experience! We had good communication with our instructor, Joshua, prior to our event to schedule a time and place to meet. Even though there was a small mishap with getting started on time, we had a lovely lesson! Even though I had some other dance experience, this was very beginner friendly for me and my partner. He met us at our level (true beginner!) and did an excellent job and walking us through basic steps and synchronizing with one another. Joshua was patient, kind, professional, and used positive reinforcement while also providing helpful feedback. We would certainly do this again and are thinking of taking classes back home!
Natasha_L, Oct 2025
I had a private tango lesson with Arts and it was absolutely fantastic! He is a patient, passionate, and knowledgeable teacher who instantly makes you feel comfortable, even if you’re a beginner. His clear explanations, attention to detail, and ability to adapt the lesson to my level made the experience both fun and inspiring. I left the class feeling more confident, connected to the music, and eager to keep learning. Highly recommend Arts for anyone wanting to experience authentic Argentine tango in a warm, engaging way!
Melissa_T, Oct 2025
It was such a joy to learn the tango, how to dance it, and its rich history. This was the highlight of my visit to Argentina.
Martín was very professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend this to anyone who visits Buenos Aires. It's an invaluable experience especially to those who have an appreciation for music, dance, and the arts.
Elizabeth_S, May 2025
The tango lessons are my favorite part of the trip so far (I booked two). While I admittedly haven’t been to Iguazu Falls yet, I did have Row 5 seats to the opera at Teatro Colon and the tango lessons were even better. The company was thoughtful enough to notice we had two females and one male in our group, so offered a male teacher to keep the numbers balanced. They arranged a studio within a 20-minute easy walk from our hotel.
Our instructor was great and all of us enjoyed the lessons.
Response from Host, May 2025
Hello Elizabeth, thank you very much for joining us for the tango lesson and we´re very happy that you enjoyed them so much. We hope you keep on dancing tango back home. Enjoy the Falls!
Elizabeth_S, Apr 2025
Great immersive experience. Fun teacher, enabling unique pictures and fun memories. Another class tomorrow.
Krystyna_K, Apr 2025
Martin was an amazing teacher! We had no prior ballroom dance experience and felt like we learned so much! He told us we were fantastic and encouraged us to keep it up!
