If rain looks possible, dress appropriately and ask your hotel to borrow an umbrella (or if not possible, ask your guide directly by calling in advance, regarding bringing spare umbrellas)

What‘s Included

The cost of any public transport needed during your tour (e.g. local bus or subway)

Any transport needed to get to the start of the walking tour from there (usually by taxi/s with your guide, or private hired transport, but sometimes either on foot or by public transport if that makes more sense for your tour). This travel time is in addition to your tour time.

7 hour private walking tour just for you

Personal meeting service at your accommodation (or cruise port terminal, or other agreed location) within the city of Buenos Aires

Any taxis that you decide to take during or after the tour (unless, in the latter case, you have paid for the "transport back" service)

The cost of any entrance fees during the tour (i.e. to enter a museum or other ticketed attraction). This is not a common occurrence for our tours, but if needed, such fees in Buenos Aires are usually low

Pick-up or drop-off at EZE or AEP airports (although these can sometimes be arranged in coordination with your tour, if there is availability, at extra cost)

What To Expect

San Telmo

Back in the day, San Telmo was home to the city’s richest and most important families. But yellow fever epidemics forced them to move north/west to the then outskirts of the city (now Recoleta & Retiro) and San Telmo began to fall from grace. Artists & the working class soon moved into the vacated properties, converting the barrio into what it is now known for: a bohemian hive for antiques, tango, cafes, bars, & restaurants, as well as the must-visit San Telmo Street Market every Sunday.

1 hour • Admission Not Applicable

Plaza de Mayo

The historical, political, cultural, religious and economic hub of Argentina. Military coups, massive protests, financial crises, independence heroes, Peron, Evita, Maradona, the Pope and more... Plaza de Mayo hides story after story and cannot be fully appreciated without a knowledgeable guide. Near here we will have a relaxed break at a cafe of historical and/or cultural value, a great place to take stock and ask your guide all of your burning questions about BA!
