"Fascinating..."    (top...)

 

"Put simply, this is one of the best tours I've had and I've travelled on most of the continents and seen many major cities. Guides were engaging, friendly and very knowledgable. Just the right balance of serious and silly history with a lot of local current cultural commentary thrown in. The brief stops for coffee balanced out the jammed itinerary. I highly recommend! " - -Marty M, Tripadvisor, March 7

"We did back-to-back walking tours with the company. We have taken many walking tours [...] but these fellows were the most knowledgeable - they knew everything. Most impressive and entertaining were the stories about the interred at Recoleta Cemetery. It's generally hard to be entertained in a cemetery - but they did it." - -Cookienj, Tripadvisor, February 11

"......they are fun, knowledgeable and deliver such an illuminating city walk, it eclipses tour-books and crowded tip-tours!. Their approach is to synthesize all about this city into flexible, dynamic walking tours of Buenos Aires that focus not only on mainstream historical events, but on individual narratives, culture and peculiarities." - -BJC, VA

"Fascinating! We learned about real people and through your stories were able to gain a deeper appreciation of the local culture and history. [...] It makes me mad to think about all the time we lost and the interesting stuff we surely missed walking on our own." - -R. Singh, Leeds

"The best tour of any city's history and architecture we have ever taken. Period. " - -dannben, Lonely Planet, Americas Forum    (more testimonials...)

Private Tours of Buenos Aires Since 2006 — BA-Walking-Tours: The True Buenos Aires Experience


A private walking tour of Buenos Aires offers an unparalleled opportunity for tourists to immerse themselves in the city's vibrant culture and rich history. Unlike large group tours, a private experience allows for a personalized itinerary, tailored to your individual curiosity ensuring that visitors can explore hidden gems and iconic landmarks at their own pace.

Our knowledgeable local guides provide insightful commentary, sharing fascinating stories and insider tips that enhance the journey. This intimate setting fosters genuine connections with both the city and its people, allowing tourists to engage in meaningful conversations and discover authentic local experiences.

By wandering through the diverse neighborhoods, savoring the local customs, and absorbing the lively atmosphere, travelers gain a deep and thorough understanding of Buenos Aires that goes beyond the surface, creating lasting memories and a true sense of the city's unique charm.



Here are just a few of the fascinating and unique areas we will explore together:

San Telmo: San Telmo is a charming foundational neighborhood known for its old cobblestone streets, colonial architecture, historical churches where the locals fought the British invaders in 1806, and the vibrant local bohemia arts scene. Tourists can explore the San Telmo Market, where local vendors sell antiques and artisan goods. The area is famous for its tango culture, with street performers often showcasing passionate dance routines in the plazas. Visitors can also enjoy quaint cafés and restaurants offering traditional Argentine cuisine, creating an atmosphere rich in history and local flavor. San Telmo offers a unique glimpse into traditional Buenos Aires life, making it perfect for cultural enthusiasts.

Plaza de Mayo: Plaza de Mayo is the historic heart of Buenos Aires, where the city’s rich political and cultural history always unfolds. Tourists can expect to see iconic landmarks such as the Casa Rosada, the presidential palace with its distinctive pink façade, and the Metropolitan Cathedral (where Pope Francis worked), which showcases stunning architecture. The square is also home to the famous May Pyramid, a monument commemorating the start of Argentina's independence in 1810. Visitors may witness lively gatherings, political demonstrations, and cultural events, making it a vibrant hub that reflects the spirit of the Argentine people. This central square is a must-visit for those wanting to understand the political heritage and cultural pulse of the city.

Avenida Callao from Congreso (Congress Building) to Recoleta: Avenida Callao is a significant thoroughfare that connects the historic Congreso district to the elegant Recoleta neighborhood. Tourists can enjoy a leisurely walk along this avenue, flanked by a mix of architectural styles, including neoclassical buildings and modern structures. Noteworthy landmarks include the stunning Palacio de Aguas Corrientes, an impressive water palace that showcases beautiful tile work and intricate designs. As visitors approach Recoleta, they will cross Santa Fe avenue (that divides the city "wealth-wise"), visit the world-famous Grand Splendid bookstore (a gorgeous theatre made into a gigantic, world-famous bookstore), they’ll find the charming Plaza Vicente López, a lovely spot to relax and take in the surroundings. The area is also dotted with cafés and shops, perfect for a break or some souvenir shopping. This route offers an enriching experience, blending history and culture while providing a glimpse of local life in Buenos Aires.

Florida Street from Avenida de Mayo to Plaza San Martín: Florida Street is a bustling pedestrian thoroughfare that serves as a vibrant artery connecting Avenida de Mayo, where you can see Palacio Barolo and Café Tortoni and Galeria Guemes on your way to Plaza San Martín. Tourists can expect to find a lively atmosphere filled with shops, street performers, and cafés, making it a popular destination for both locals and visitors. Along this route, the stunning Galerías Pacífico offers an upscale shopping experience within a beautifully restored building featuring remarkable frescoes. The Centro Naval, a historic social club, stands nearby, showcasing classic architecture. As visitors stroll further, they can relax at Florida Garden, a charming park offering a green oasis amidst the urban hustle. The iconic Kavanagh Building, once the tallest in South America, adds to the skyline with its striking art deco design, while the nearby Holy Sacrament Basilica captivates with its serene beauty and intricate details. This walk along Florida Street immerses tourists in the city's lively energy and architectural splendor.

Retiro: Retiro is a bustling district that serves as a key transportation hub in Buenos Aires, blending modernity with historical charm. Tourists can expect to see the impressive Retiro Railway Station, a stunning example of neoclassical architecture and a testimony (you'll see many) of the strong (now politically incorrect to mention) British presence in Argentina's development. The area is also home to Plaza San Martín, a beautiful park adorned with statues and monuments, perfect for a leisurely stroll. Visitors can explore nearby shopping areas and enjoy the vibrant energy of the city, making Retiro a lively starting point for discovering Buenos Aires. Its blend of history and modernity makes Retiro an exciting area to kick off your exploration.

Arroyo Street to Avenida Alvear: Arroyo Street, a charming and picturesque thoroughfare, connects the vibrant energy of Buenos Aires with the elegance of Avenida Alvear. Tourists can stroll along this tree-lined street, admiring the stunning architecture of the surrounding buildings, which reflect a blend of classic and contemporary styles. As they approach Avenida Alvear, known for its opulent residences and luxury hotels, visitors are treated to a glimpse of the city's affluent past. This area is also home to beautiful parks and cultural institutions, making it a delightful spot for leisurely walks and photography. Notably, the site of the former Israeli embassy, which was cowardly destroyed in a bombing in 1992 by Iranian terrorism, serves as a poignant reminder of the city’s history and resilience. The contrast between the artistic vibe of Arroyo Street and the grandeur of Avenida Alvear offers a unique perspective on Buenos Aires, showcasing both its artistic spirit and its historical richness. This route provides insight into the city’s elegant side while reflecting on its complex past.

Recoleta: Recoleta is an elegant neighborhood known for its Parisian-style architecture and cultural attractions. Tourists can expect to visit the famous Recoleta Cemetery, where notable figures such as Eva Perón are buried (why is she buried amidst the people she hated?), and marvel at the ornate mausoleums. The area is also home to the stunning Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar and the nearby Recoleta Cultural Center, which hosts art exhibitions and performances. With its chic cafés and boutique shops, Recoleta exudes sophistication and charm, offering a glimpse into the city’s affluent past. This neighborhood is perfect for those interested in art, history, and upscale shopping.

Palermo: Palermo is one of Buenos Aires’ largest and most vibrant neighborhoods, renowned for its parks, trendy boutiques, and lively nightlife. Tourists can explore the expansive Bosques de Palermo, a beautiful park featuring lakes, rose gardens, and walking trails, perfect for relaxation and picnics. The area is also famous for its eclectic street art and hipster culture, with numerous cafés, bars, and restaurants offering both local and international cuisine. A forgotten, neglected, poor, inexpensive quarter rediscovered by the local bohemia, Palermo’s dynamic atmosphere makes it a must-visit destination for those seeking a taste of contemporary Buenos Aires. It’s ideal for visitors looking to experience the city's modern lifestyle and vibrant nightlife.

La Boca: La Boca port is a colorful and artistic neighborhood that captures the essence of strong Italian immigration influence to Argentina. Tourists can expect to see the iconic Caminito street, immortalized in the lyrics of an ancient romantic tango. La Boca is famous for its vibrant houses painted in bright colors (being a port, stibadours and sailors used to paint patches of their houses with limited boat paint surplus) and its lively tango performances. The area is steeped in Italian immigrant history, and visitors can explore local artisan shops and galleries showcasing traditional crafts. La Boca is also home to the Boca Juniors stadium, a pilgrimage site for football fans. The neighborhood’s lively atmosphere and rich cultural heritage make it a unique and unforgettable experience in Buenos Aires. This area is a favorite for those wanting to dive into the city's artistic spirit and football culture.

Buenos Aires by Night: Truly unique and only matched (but not surpassed (by cultural habits of Spain, Buenos Aires comes alive at night, offering a vibrant atmosphere perfect for family outings. The city’s peculiar late hours mean that restaurants, cafés, and shops often stay open well into the evening, allowing families to enjoy leisurely dinners (never before 9pm—or better—later!) and strolls through the lively streets. Many neighborhoods, like Palermo and San Telmo, feature street performers and cultural events, creating a festive ambiance that is both safe and welcoming for all ages. Children can delight in gelato from local heladerías (gelatto shops), while parents can savor traditional Argentine cuisine, then go for a people-watching stroll. With its unique blend of culture and warmth, experiencing Buenos Aires by night is a unique adventure that no tourist should miss.

Tango Show Experience: Immerse yourself in the passionate world of tango with an unforgettable show in Buenos Aires. Renowned for its dramatic music and intricate footwork (dancers 'guess' or 'read' each other's body), a tango performance captures the essence of Argentine culture. Tango is—literally—danced poetry exchanged between the dancers. Many venues offer a blend of live music and exquisite dance, showcasing talented performers who bring this iconic art form to life. As you enjoy a delicious dinner, you’ll be transported into the heart of tango, witnessing the elegance and emotion that define this dance. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or a curious newcomer, attending a tango show is a must-do experience that will leave you enchanted and inspired.

Estancia (ranch) Barbecue and Polo Day: Experience the authentic Argentine lifestyle with a day at an Estancia just outside the city, where you can enjoy a traditional barbecue (asado) and witness friendly yet adamant polo matches. Start your day with a warm welcome from the hosts, followed by a hearty meal featuring succulent grilled meats, fresh salads, and local wines, often while watching a live local folk dance show. After lunch, immerse yourself in the excitement of polo, a sport deeply rooted in Argentine culture (by the Brits, who exerted significant influence over Argentina, effectively pulling the strings of government from 1806 to 1943.). Whether you’re watching skilled players compete or trying your hand at a lesson, the day promises fun and adventure. Surrounded by stunning "Pampa" (grasslands) landscapes, this unique experience all tourists enjoy, offers a perfect blend of culinary delights and equestrian excitement, making it a memorable addition to any tourist's visit to Buenos Aires.
