Highlights
  • Plaza de Mayo - The May Square is located in the Porteño Downtown, neighborhood of Monserrat, in the area where the foundation of Buenos Aires took place. The Plaza de Mayo is the most important and oldest public square of the city. The name of this square commemorates the Revolution of May 25, 1810, date in which the citizens gathered around to expel the Viceroy and form a creole government. Since then, the Square has been a silent witness to the most important political and social events in the country.
  • San Telmo - San Telmo is an old neighborhood with a bohemian touch thanks to its temporary art galleries, night bars and street murals. The Defensa street, full of antique shops and bustling brasseries, passes through the Dorrego square, where many tourists come on Sundays to see the street market and street performances. Winding roads run through Lezama Park among jacaranda trees. The neighborhood is full of exclusive restaurants with tango shows.
  • La Boca - La Boca is a working class neighborhood that has several attractions next to the Riachuelo. Asadores and street artists mark the entire Caminito, a narrow alley flanked by brightly colored zinc houses that evoke its origin as an immigrant neighborhood. The Bombonera is the Boca Juniors stadium and a whole hotbed on match days. The Proa Foundation is a museum of modern art with temporary exhibitions and views of the old docks.
  • Caminito - Caminito is a museum alley and a traditional passage, of great cultural and tourist value, located in the La Boca neighborhood of the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The place acquired cultural significance because it inspired the music of the famous tango Caminito (1926), composed by Juan de Dios Filiberto.
  • Matanza River - (Optional) Experience a captivating one-hour navigation across the Riachuelo in Buenos Aires. As you glide along this vital waterway, you’ll gain unique perspectives of the city’s vibrant industrial, the residential areas, historic warehouses, bustling docks, and colorful murals that line the riverbanks. This journey offers an insightful glimpse into a less-explored side of Buenos Aires.
  • Puerto Madero - Puerto Madero is a renovated neighborhood that faces the bay. Its renovated redbrick buildings house exclusive grills frequented by tourists and businessmen at lunchtime. There are also modern skyscrapers with multinationals and luxury apartments. The lakes in the area are surrounded by trails, as is the ecological reserve Costanera Sur, very popular with runners and families. The elegant suspension bridge of the Woman connects the ports.
  • Retiro - Retiro is a neighborhood with great diversity and quiet streets. Art galleries and chic coffee shops lead to the emblematic and busy train station of Retiro, British style and surrounded by fast food stalls. The art deco tower of the Kavanagh building offers views of the Plaza San Martín, a steep park where office employees rest in the shelter of jacaranda and patriotic monuments. Tourists flock to the Florida pedestrian street for its leather goods boutiques, souvenir stalls and tango dancers.
  • Recoleta - Recoleta is a thriving area, ideal for walking, known for its Parisian-style terraced houses, ancient lavish palaces and luxurious boutiques. The National Museum of Fine Arts exhibits masterpieces by Argentine artists, and the Recoleta Cultural Center offers temporary avant-garde exhibitions. In the Plaza Francia, with lawn areas, there is a craft market on weekends.
  • Teatro Colon - The Teatro Colón is an opera house in the city of Buenos Aires. Due to its size, acoustics and trajectory, it´s considered one of the five best in the world. According to a survey conducted by the acoustic expert Leo Beranek and outstanding international opera and orchestra directors, the Teatro Colón has the hall with the best acoustic for opera and the second best for concerts in the world.

Comparable with the most important lyrical rooms in the world, such as the Scala in Milan, the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, the State Opera of Vienna, the Royal Opera House (Covent Garden) in London and the Paris Opera, it is an unequivocal place of consecration for those who present themselves in it and an inescapable place for music lovers.

Great tour of Buenos Aires! - Excellent city tour. Heraldo was a great guide and Enrique was a great driver too. It was a nice way to quickly see all the high points of the city. They did a great job keeping us organized and on time. The only thing I wished is that they had given us more time at the Recoletta cemetery to actually go into the cemetery and less time at the bookstore. But it was a fantastic tour and a great introduction to Buenos Aires.

Our experience with Hernan Serpa was simply unforgettable! - Our experience with Hernan Serpa was simply unforgettable! Despite the minor drawback of the cancellation of the boat (somewhat beyond his control due to the weather conditions), Hernan knew how to adapt the tour and make sure we enjoyed our visit to Buenos Aires to the fullest. His deep knowledge of the city, his passion for sharing it and his great sense of humor made every moment special. He took us through emblematic places and told us fascinating stories that allowed us to know the true essence of Buenos Aires. We highly recommend your services! If you are looking for a Tour Guide that makes you feel like a local, Hernan is your person!

I was disappointed - Não Gostei do City Tour. Very fast stops in Caminito and Recoleta. I have done another city tours in Buenos Aires and found this very weak and with few stops for the time of 5 hours. At Plaza de Mayo we could not even enter the Cathedral and it was very cold and the Guide speaking more than 20 minutes and nobody standing to stay outdoors and we were only 6 people. The Guide lacked creativity to see the best option for that cold day and the places we would visit. In Caminito stopped only 20 minutes in a nice place to visit.
