What to expect
We will discover the many attractions of this historical place like the Casa Rosada with Evita’s balcony, the round of the Madres de Plaza de Mayo, sight of the Cabildo (the place where our Independence started), the Metropolitan Cathedral, the Piramide de Mayo and the corners around full of stories. In this place I will briefly introduce you to the History of the country.
This is one of the most important attractions of Buenos Aires, an impacting exhibition of art and sculpture, with more than five thousands mausoleums. It is like a museum of art and history with lots of tales and stories, as also the famous tomb of Evita Peron. We will discover secret messages and clues in many graves and enjoy many legends. The surroundings of the cemetery are also an attraction due to it is placed in the most chic area of Buenos Aires.
Teatro Colon
This is the largest Opera House of the world built with the purpose of being also the nicest and bring the best acoustic ever, which is a fact. We will do a sight of this impressive and massive building and I will share with you stories from its foundation to current days. This still being a wonderful place to watch and be seen.
La Boca
The most colorful place of Buenos Aires full of passion for Tango and Soccer with the Caminito colored street, the street Tango dancers and the Soccer World Temple, the Boca Stadium, nicknamed “The chocolate box” (Bombonera”).
Calle Defensa
Defensa St is the heart of the colonial looking neighborhood of San Telmo, may be pedestrian depending on the day but always charming. We will stroll by the narrow sidewalks enjoying the flavor of Tango, antiques, some good fashion clothing and the markets. On Sunday there is the flea market but any other day I have plan b to visit and get a nice experience.
Recoleta
The Recoleta area, well recognized by its charming stye, with luxury buildings of French architecture, traditional cafes and green European looking parks. We will stroll by the standard area but as usual I will add secret sections which will make you doubt about if you are in Buenos Aires or Paris.
Puerto Madero
This is the newest section of Buenos Aires, a harbor driven into a fancy modern area, with skyscrapers merged with old port architecture, parks and drives beside the water. Here we will see also one of the icons of Buenos Aires, the Woman Bridge, in facts, the whole neighborhood is dedicated to Women.
The Tortoni Café, the oldest café of Buenos Aires, set with a luxury style and architecture, witness of all the important visitors of the city, a not to miss stop where we can try a coffee or a chocolate with churros…or a fun secret drink I will share with you. Of course we depend on availability but at least we can get pictures of this unique place.
Avenida de Mayo
This traditional avenue is the top sample of the Buenos Aires's French architecture, with its precious facades, the sycamore trees and that local flavor floating around. Believe or not, this short but rich in sights avenue rooms a piece of hell and we will discover it together. We will fully cover the avenue from the Plaza de Mayo up to the National Congress in a sight full of stories and fun.
This is the icon of Buenos Aires, inspired on the Washington Obelisk and to see it is a must, like a white needle aiming to the light blue sky of the city. We will stroll by the widest avenue of the world, the 9 de Julio Av, enjoying the sight of downtown and we will also have the chance of the neversleeping corner 9 de Julio with Corrientes, where the Obelisk is. We can take the typical picture with the green BA the initials of Buenos Aires with the obelisk and the Evita’s portrait as background.
Palermo
We will stroll many sections of this vast area, as minimum the park area, and stroll at the Rose Garden (rosedal, closed on Mondays), but also we will explore secret corners and luxury residential neighborhoods. This area also rooms two little bubbles, Soho and Hollywood, depending on tastes and timing we can also visit, This is tailored!
The needle shape of the bridge, emulating the final Tango pose is a not to miss portrait of Buenos Aires and We must see it! With 260 feet length this bridge is the heart of Puerto Madero, and we will get many angles to enjoy it.
Floralis Generica
Opened like a hug to the sky, the Floralis Generica represents part of the modernity of Buenos Aires, we can eventually get in our shots the airplanes of the domestic airport caught between its bright metallic petals. This is an aluminum giant planted in a green park, in between Palermo and Recoleta, escorted by the Roman looking building of the Law School. A not to miss place waiting for a not to miss selfie!
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
