What's Included

  • 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 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.
  • Your own dedicated guide
  • The cost of any public transport needed during your tour (e.g. local bus or subway)
  • Any food or drink that you decide to consume during the tour (i.e. during the cafe / lunch break)
  • 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)
  • Gratuities (which are voluntary and completely up to you)

Meeting and Pickup

Pickup points

Select a pickup point

Pickup details

We can pick you up at your Hotel or Apartment/AirBnB within the city of Buenos Aires, or if you are on a cruise ship then we can pick you up from the Cruise Port Terminal "Quinquela Martin". Or if you prefer (or are staying outside the city of Buenos Aires, or just transiting through the city for the day), we can arrange to meet you at the walking tour start point, which is usually in the neighborhood of San Telmo. You would need to contact us directly after booking to arrange this. END OF TOUR: With our suggested full day tour itinerary, the tour usually ends in the neighborhood of Recoleta, near the cemetery. However sometimes with later tour starts we will end the tour in the neighborhood of Retiro (in or near Plaza San Martin).  At the end of the tour your guide will be happy to help flag you down a taxi and tell the driver where to take you to get back to your accommodation or wherever you wish to go. Unless of course you select the "transport back" tour option, in which case your guide or a driver will accompany you back to your accommodation.

Great day in BA
Awilda_M, Mar 2024
BA is a huge city but Chris was able to show us a lot in 6 and a half hours. Knowledgeable about the city history and myths made our day very enjoyable. Highly recommended
Must experience walking tour of Buenos Aires
Robert_S, Jan 2024
Our tour guide, Oliver, picked us up at the Sheraton and began a comprehensive tour of Buenos Aires. Oliver was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He took us through the neighborhoods of San Telmo, Palermo, Recoleta, Retiro, Microcentro, and La Boca. Oliver shared his vast knowledge and historical stories with us. By having this tour at the beginning of our stay in Buenos Aires we were able to further enjoy our time in Argentina.
Excellent city tour!

The tour gave us a great taste off the city. We had a short time in Buenos Aires and Chris was wonderful, very knowledgeable & showed us all the he could He probably would’ve showed us more but the shopping distracted us ! I highly recommend this tour especially if you don’t have too much time in the city and want to see as much as you can.
Great first day in Buenos Aires

We had the guide to ourselves and it was a great decision as she was very knowledgeable about the city and we had a variety of experiences including much historical info current city challenges and positives.

A great day in Buenos Aires
Michael_E, Dec 2022
The company had inquired about my background and interests beforehand and they really delivered a custom experience. I had an entertaining and informative day with a great guide. Chris was very friendly and knowledgeable. He didn't merely rattle off historical facts, but shared many interesting, engaging and sometimes deeply personal stories about Buenos Aires and its people.
