Itinerary

Your walking tour begins when you greet your private guide at your Buenos Aires hotel. Your starting point is Plaza de Mayo, a political epicenter home to 19th-century buildings such as Casa Rosada. See, too, structures such as the Metropolitan Cathedral.

Then, depending on your interests, you’ll proceed to either Recoleta, indisputably BA’s most affluent neighborhood, or the colorful streets of La Boca and Caminito.

If you opted for Recoleta, you’ll feast your eyes on rows of French colonial mansions and explore Recoleta Ceremony, home to elaborate mausoleums and the tomb of former first lady Eva Peron, known as Evita.   

Alternatively, you’ll delve into the soccer and tano-mad society of La Boca and Caminito, home to colorful houses made from corrugated iron. Your tour concludes at a location of your choice in mid-afternoon.

When you only have a few hours………

James_M, Jan 2023
This is our first time in BA and we deliberately chose a hotel downtown. This 4-hour walking tour was perfect for first-time visitors. We saw all the sites we wanted to see. The pace was perfect. Marissa was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I would highly recommend this tour (and Marissa) if you’re visiting Buenos Aries.

Fabulous tour! Alex was...

An excellent tour, Ana is a very good guide. The pace was good and she allowed us geriatrics to keep up. Her constant singing was to behold, more a severance than a tour. Brilliant.
