5.00Our guide Anna arrived promptly. While we had already done a city tour she was able to find places that we had an interest in seeing such as the fine arts museum and a up close visit to the metal flower. We then headed to the largest bookstore on South America which is housed in a beautifully restored former theater. Our final visit was to the opera house and was given a tour by the location. We were very fortunate to be able to see musicians practicing. We really enjoyed the professionalism and knowledge that Anna brought to the tour and all 4 of us truly loved it!

5.00Jael and Christian were brilliant. They were warm, knowledgeable, flexible and well organized. It was very comfortable to be driven around in an air conditioned private car on a very hot day. They asked us if there were specific things we wanted to experience and were able to tailor the tour for us. They were generation for other activities like museums, restaurants and shopping. Not only was it informative but easy and fun. I highly recommend this tour.

5.00The private city tour allowed us to see many of the highlights of Buenos Aires and enjoy a tour of Teatro Colon in a short time. Our tour guide Lorena was friendly, knowledgeable and flexible in dealing with a sudden rain storm; and our driver was quite capable.
Great way to be introduced to city and bonus wine tasting!

5.00Nicholas and our driver met us at our hotel and helped us have an amazing introduction to Buenos Aires. Our flight landed at 6:15 am, so we were worried about getting checked into our hotel and exploring on our own so early. Nicholas was lovely, when I asked if we might grab an empanada he ushered us into a little shop and bought us a couple. We enjoyed all the sights, attention to details, and overall his knowledge. As we were wrapping up we asked about wine recommendations and if we could stop at a wine shop. He whipped his phone and looked for a shop nearby, actually found one close run by a woman who used to give tours as well. We had little impromptu wine tasting! Overall excellent experience.
Amazing experience by professionals
