Our tour begins at the iconic Plaza de Mayo, where your guide will give you an overview of Argentine history. Here, you'll gain insight into the foundational bases of Argentina and its political reality.

Galerías Pacífico is a must-visit for its stunning blend of art, history, and luxury. This iconic 19th-century shopping gallery dazzles with its ornate Beaux-Arts architecture, including a frescoed dome painted by famed Argentine artists. On our way to the Ateneo Grand Splendid we will make a short stop to admire the impressive paintings of the central dome.

Our third stop will be the Ateneo Grand Splendid, where you can see an incredible theater converted into a bookstore. Enjoy one of the city's most iconic sites, filled with books of Argentine and international literature.

Explore San Telmo, one of Buenos Aires’ oldest and most atmospheric neighborhoods, known for its cobblestone streets, colonial architecture, antique shops, and strong tango heritage. Visit the historic San Telmo Market, a lively 19th-century market where traditional food stalls, cafés, antiques, and local vendors come together under its iconic iron-and-glass roof. It’s the perfect place to experience the authentic character and everyday flavors of Buenos Aires.

We head to The Recoleta Cemetery, a historic and architecturally impressive cemetery known for its elaborate mausoleums and statues that reflect various artistic styles. It is the final resting place of many prominent figures in Argentine history, including Eva Perón. This site is considered one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world and is a must-see tourist attraction in the city.

Our last stop before dropping you off at your hotel is the neighborhood of La Boca in Buenos Aires, one of the city's most iconic areas, known for its vibrant culture and strong ties to Italian immigrant history. It is famous for its colorful tin houses and bohemian atmosphere, reflecting an artistic and popular spirit. Within La Boca is Caminito, an open-air street museum featuring murals and artworks, renowned for its tango performances and street music.
