About this experience
Go beyond the tango show and experience Buenos Aires tango from the inside.
Join Valerie, a professional tango dancer, teacher, milonga organizer and Tango journalist for an introduction to the world of Argentine social tango. She will take you to a "Milonga", where local people come to dance social tango.
This is not a tango show. At a milonga, the dance floor is part of everyday porteño culture, with its own music, traditions and social codes. Valerie will help you understand what you're seeing and, if you want, how to participate yourself. Most importantly, you'll meet tango through people who actually live it.
Whether you've never danced tango before or already have some experience, the focus is on curiosity, connection and having a genuinely local evening.
**Come as a traveler. Leave with a glimpse into the world behind the tango shows.**

Itinerary and highlights
I take you to an underground alternative Milonga where I will explain you the Tango codes and differences between the old & young generation of Tango. If we are lucky, there will be live music too. You can dance as well and I can help with that! Please note that entrance fees (about 5 USD per person) are NOT included, but we can also go to a FREE Milonga! The tour can be extended up to 5 hours if you wish!
The tour starts with an 45min class and then we go to an authentic milonga!
