Itinerary

Step into the heart of Buenos Aires and uncover the city’s vibrant football culture on the Argentine Football Legends Graffiti Tour. This unique tour invites you to discover colorful murals celebrating icons like Messi and Maradona as you explore the characterful neighborhoods of San Telmo, La Paternal, and Palermo. Visit Maradona’s first home, and cap off your experience with a snack at a classic Palermo café. Highlighting both street art and sporting history, this trip offers an engaging lens into Argentina’s passion for football—perfect for travelers eager to connect with local culture in a creative and memorable way.

Overview

Our services begin with a meeting at our offices in San Telmo. From there, just a few blocks away, you'll find three murals very close to each other. During the tour, our guide will be available to answer any questions and assist with photos you may want to take.
Among the murals in San Telmo, you'll find one of Lionel Messi doing the famous 'Topo Gigio' gesture, a mural of Diego Maradona with a soccer ball, and the player Ángel Di María in his iconic goal celebration, making a heart with his hands.
After the third mural, and having walked only three blocks, a car will be waiting to take us to the next famous mural in CABA: the largest mural of Diego Maradona in the world. From the same artist, we will see another painting, but this time of Lionel Messi.
Once we're done exploring San Telmo, we'll drive to the neighborhood where Diego Maradona grew up: La Paternal. This neighborhood holds great value because of the club it represents, Argentinos Juniors, whose stadium is named after Diego Armando Maradona and is nicknamed 'El Semillero del Mundo' (The Seedbed of the World) for its characteristic of producing great players.
The entire block around the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium is filled with graffiti of him from his childhood, youth, and adulthood. We'll walk around it to learn about the history of the man who was considered the best soccer player in the world for a long time, and we'll conclude our visit to the neighborhood by heading to Maradona's first home after leaving Villa Fiorito.
Continuing our excursion, the car will take us to the neighborhood of Palermo. Here, we'll see graffiti that already includes the 2022 Argentine championship team, such as Emiliano 'Dibu' Martínez's save in one of the final plays before the penalty shootout, or a graffiti of the moment when Lionel Messi lifts the trophy with the team. We'll also pass by a bar whose facade is painted by the three captains of the World Cup-winning Argentine team in 1978, 1986, and 2022: Daniel Passarella, Diego Maradona, and Lionel Messi.
After walking this route, we'll have a snack at a café in the Palermo neighborhood to conclude the tour at around 5 PM.
