The Tour to Take to Discover hidden Gems

This tour takes you to areas which are different from the normal touristy areas where everyone hangs out. Gives you the opportunity to discover many hidden gems which are well worth the visit. Our guide, Mariano was excellent and very friendly. He also has perfect Spanish and English. He took us to many interesting places. Some of the highlights I most enjoyed was visiting the tomb of Carlos Gardel, the beautiful church ln Caballito and the stop at "Chinatown". Would recommend this tour for anyone looking for something different and interesting.

If you like more detailed information about the area you're visiting and stuff the average tourist will learn this tour is for you. The cemetery you visit is incredible and probably my favorite part of the tour. The church where the pope was baptized was beautiful and the relationship with the pope is actually very low key. Mariano is very knowledgeable and an enjoyable host.
Great tour of alternative BA

This is an excellent walking tour of the parts of Buenos Aires that you never normally see. We’ve been to Buenos Aires several times before and we’ve never been to any of the places we visited today. It’s really well organised with a driver taking you to places that are normally difficult to reach as a tourist, especially as Buenos Aires is such a big city. Big thumbs up to our guide. Highly recommended!
Amazing day in Buenos Aires!

I had the best day on this tour. I felt so lucky to have the driver and tour guide that I had. Mariana was a wealth of knowledge and shared so many cool details and information on the city. I had a lot of questions and she was able to answer them all. I was extremely impressed. Mariana spoke English very well which helped make the experience so much nicer being able to learn all the knowledge she was able to share with me. I had no idea Buenos Aires had all these extra places that we went to today. This was definitely the highlight of my trip to Buenos Aires and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for something different from the normal everyday things.

We enjoyed visiting the areas that only the locals know about. Our favorite area was Chinatown, did not realize how vast Buenos Aires is.
Fantastic Experience!

The Off the Beaten Path tour in Buenos Aires was a fantastic, immersive experience. It veered away from the usual tourist spots and took me through areas and neighborhoods you’d never see on a standard itinerary. The guide, Marcelo, was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the city’s character to life. ##Highlights - Visited Chacarita and the mausoleum of tango greats, including Carlos Gardel. - Explored neighborhoods that are off the typical tourist radar. - Gorgeous architecture and vibrant street scenes that showcase Buenos Aires’ unique charm. - I even spoke with locals who were unaware of some of what Marcelo showed me. - You’ll discover Chinatown in Buenos Aires, a surprising highlight of the tour. Marcelo was a standout guide—friendly, thoughtful, and full of interesting history and local insights. His depth of knowledge made the stops more meaningful and the whole experience more engaging. Final verdict If you’re seeking an authentic Buenos Aires experience away from the usual routes, this tour is a great choice. Highly recommended for architecture fans, history buffs, and anyone looking for a different perspective on the city.
Fantastic

I did three walking tours, and they were all brilliant. Martin was passionate, knowledgeable and a great guide. Maria brought colour to La Boca, and shared so much of the history. And, in my opinion it wouldn’t be worth more than a quick visit to the Cemetery without such a well informed guide. Thank you :)

Vito was an excellent guide with fair and appropriate information from all the places we visited on the tour. Also always willing and attentive to any other queries or changes in the route of the tour. Recommended.
