Sightseeing In Argentine & Chilean Patagonia

Welcome to Buenos Aires. The capital of Argentina is best described as the 'Paris of South America', and Buenos Aires proudly embraces this title. Upon arrival in Buenos Aires, meet our representative at the airport who will be there holding a sign with your name on it and enjoy a private transfer to your hotel.

In case you can find some time, take a stroll around the city. Visit the colorful San Telmo and Recoleta enclaves and enjoy the cafe culture of Buenos Aires. Explore its buildings made in traditional European architecture styles, walk down the cobbled streets lined with rustic outdoor cafes, visit the local antiques and artisanal markets that offer plenty of bargain shopping, and enjoy the mouthwatering Argentine barbecue prepared using prized Argentine beef left to sizzle out in the open on a 'parrilla'.

Buenos Aires is also home to some excellent local designers and, in case you are interested in designer outfit, you will certainly find the perfect leather jacket, long leather boots and handbags for all occasions.

Enjoy our pickup service early in the morning and start your half-day guided tour of the city. Over the course of the day you will have the chance to visit the historical and political centres of the city: San Telmo, with its cobblestone streets; La Boca, where Buenos Aires turns colorful and tango is ever present; and the chic and aristocratic Recoleta, whose big palaces remind us why Buenos Aires was once called 'the Paris of South America'.

In the evening you will be picked up from your hotel to be driven to a mystical place where you’ll discover one of our most ancient traditions. Tango is more than our national dance. Tango is: our immigrant origins, the talent of our local artists, the sensuality of the Argentine woman and our way to deal with a broken heart, dancing our way through tragical and yet eternal love stories. Tonight you will enjoy a 3 hour long professional display of tango and music with a group of local artists onstage immersed in an elegant and alluring place. The manners, ambience, clothes and dance steps which tango lovers used to practice 100 years ago will come to life again and you will travel in time for a night. This spectacular demonstration of the finest local dancing will be accompanied by delicious Argentine and international cuisine. Dinner is à la carte, beverages included so you can lose yourself in the ethereal taste of Malbec wine. At the end of the evening, around midnight, you will be driven back to your hotel, fully in love with the bohemian spirit of our beloved Buenos Aires.
