“We had an amazing time with Ivana! We never expected to be able to enjoy a Cemetery Tour as much as we did! Great historical insights and valuable cultural references.”
A 3-hour tip-based walk through Recoleta and Retiro, from Teatro Colón across 9 de Julio to palaces, parks, and Recoleta.
“Walking was a little rough for a couple old folks, but we saw so much up close. The explanations were great by Maria, and her English was mostly easy to follow. Thankful for the bathroom break. Luckily for us, we are staying very close to the Cemetery, so was just a short walk to return “home” at end of tour.”
A 4-hour small-group bike ride through Palermo and Recoleta, with safe bike lanes, mate and alfajores, and time at Recoleta Cemetery.

Buenos Aires highlights plus a Tigre Delta cruise on a small-group day tour, with Recoleta Cemetery entrance and hotel pickup.
“We really enjoyed our day. We got to see the places we wanted to see and enjoyed the time we spent in Tigre as well. The boat trip was beautiful. We saw the changing of the Guard in the Plaza Major / National Cathedral. Franco, our guide, was very informative and helpful. He also had excellent English. The vehicle we travelled in was large, very comfortable and the Driver drove carefully. All in all, we had a lovely memorable day.”

“Excellent. Learnt so much more than any book. People are so interesting - and more comes out from death! Each area had a story which was often thought provoking.”
Recoleta walking tour with Luz, French-style architecture, then an intimate live jazz show with a drink in Buenos Aires.
“O tour foi excelente! Luz é muito gentil e sabe muito sobre a cultura e a história de Buenos Aires. Tivemos uma tarde maravilhosa com ela. O show de Jazz foi muito bom, os músicos eram incríveis. O bar também era ótimo, com drinks e petiscos deliciosos. Um muito obrigada à Luz por toda a gentileza e carinho com nossa família. Encerramos nossa estadia em Buenos Aires com chave de ouro.”
