One Day in Buenos Aires: Private Full-Day Walking TourPrivate Tour

Buenos Aires is one of the most beautiful and sophisticated cities in Latin America due to its art nouveau buildings, cobblestone streets, contemporary culture, nightlife and amazing food. 

On your private full-day tour you will:

Buenos Aires is a special place; a blend of Europe in South America reflected in its striking architecture and cultural background mixed with enchanting Latin charm. Formerly one of the richest cities in the world, your private full-day tour will ensure you see, experience and absorb all the highlights of this vibrant city. 

Your tour will start at Plaza de Mayo – the central hub of Buenos Aires that has a special place in Argentina’s consciousness. Starting with the once infamous Cabildo, your private guide will take you back in time for a taste of the revolutionary sentiment in the air when it was the focal point of the May Revolution in 1810. 

Walking through the square to the oldest political monument in Argentina, the Piramide de Mayo (May Pyramid), you will hear the stories of the surrounding buildings; including the classical Catedral Metropolitana where Pope Francis was the archbishop until 2013. 

The jewel of the square though is most the Casa Rosada (Pink House). This presidential mansion has been the scene of many famous moments in Argentina’s history, not least Eva Peron’s speech addressing the “shirtless”; an event featured in the film ‘Evita’ where she was played by Madonna. 

You’ll then take a stroll through Avenida de Mayo, experiencing Argentine café culture at its finest at Café Tortoni. This unique establishment feels like a little piece of Paris in Buenos Aires and has been a great place to unwind since it was founded in 1858. Famous for its delicious hot chocolate and churros! 

Your tour will take in iconic places like the Obelisco, where you’ll be able to admire the majestic architecture of the Teatro Colon and hear about the thriving cultural life of Buenos Aires. Your last stop will be the Recoleta neighbourhood with its famous Cementerio de la Recoleta (Recoleta’s cemetery), a vast and brooding necropolis, a haven for the city’s wild cats, that holds tombs with many interesting stories.
