Itinerary

Day 1: Buenos Aires

Welcome to Buenos Aires! The Trip Planner will meet you at the airport and transport you to your hotel. The leviathan metropolis of Buenos Aires, the most interesting of all South American capitals, is one of Argentina’s biggest attractions. It’s a fascinating place to just walk around in, people-watching, shopping, or just taking in the atmosphere. The numerous barrios (neighborhoods) are strikingly different – some are decadently old-fashioned, while others are daringly modern – yet they all exude personality.

Private Tour: Buenos Aires by Night with Optional Dinner

Nightlife, tango, music, football, excellent beef, and the finest local wines are all available in Buenos Aires. Experience an Argentine Dinner Party This evening, you will take part in the Argentina Dinner Experience. The aim of this one-of-a-kind dinner party is to teach you the basics of what it means to be an Argentine while having more fun than you can find anywhere else.

Learn how to use the ‘repulge’ method to close an empanada, how to order steak in Spanish, and how to make your own ‘mate’ cocktail. You will participate in the tradition of cooking an Argentina Asado with the best of Argentina beef while tasting the best of Argentine wines during the experience. This is a social activity that is both entertaining and a perfect way to meet new people.

Day 2: Buenos Aires, private city tour

A private city tour is available. The city tour would be a combination of driving and walking, and it would include all of Buenos Aires’ big sights. We will walk to the park of remembrance from the Flor Generica and Rose gardens. This park is dedicated to the 30,000 Argentines who vanished between 1976 and 1983 as a result of the dictatorship. We’d then travel to Recoleta to see EVA (Evita) Peron’s final resting spot.

The plaza San Martin and the Plaza de Mayo will come after that. This plaza has a long tradition, and the plaza de Mayo mothers still march there every Thursday, carrying photos of their missing children and wearing their famous headscarves. The Casa Rosada, where Evita gave her famous balcony speech, is also located here. From there, we’d visit San Telmo and La Boca, as well as the popular Caminito. We’d then proceed to the Theatro Colon and the 9th of July Avenue, which is the world’s largest (18 lanes wide) and quite a sight to behold.

Los Angelitos Dinner Show. Buenos Aires is the Tango capital of the world, and Los Angelitos revels in the nostalgic mood through dance, music, clothes, and poetry.
