FANTASTIC GUIDE
Ira_W, Mar 2024
Our guide, Cande, was one of the best guides we have ever had. Her command of the history of the Jews in Argentina was extremely impressive. We learned a lot from her, and she greatly exceeded our expectations.
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Thank you for your kind words!
Everything you wanted to know about Judaism in Argentina.
JoAnn_F, Feb 2024
Our guide was Estaphan and he was fabulous. His english was perfect, his knowledge base expansive, and his delivery entertaining. He explained judaism in Argentina from the inquisition to the modern day. The 1994 terrorist bombing of AIMA was comprehenively covered. The walking tour covered the major Jewish neighborhoods and buildings. Estephan explained candidly what Jewish life in Argentina has been like for him as well as hot button topics like antisemitism, Israel and geopolitics, and the current Israeli/Hamas war. Left feeling that we had a solid understanding for Judaism in all its facets in Argentina. On top of that, it was a pleasant experience.

In times like this we are even prouder to be a Jewish-owned agency sharing the history of our community and creating stronger bonds to our global family! ✡︎
Jewish life in Argentina
Merle_F, Nov 2023
Our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and super nice. We really felt like she gave us a good introduction to Jewish life in Argentine through different historical times.
Great tour, great guide!
Joyce_S, Oct 2023
Our guide Cande was terrific. She provided us with lots of information and answered all our questions about Argentina’s Jewish community. We forgot our passports, which were needed for entry into the Jewish Museum, so she went back to the hotel with me to get them and rearranged the tour stops so I didn’t have more walking. What a lovely young lady. Best tour ever!
A great Jewish Tour

Fernando was an excellent and informative guide. I learned a lot about Buenos Aires’ history. In addition to knowing a lot about the area, he also provided some recommendations for restaurants and activities to check out.
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Thanks for your review! Fernando is awesome and we're very proud to have him on our team. Hope to see you around in Buenos Aires again!
