Itinerary

The May Square is located in the Porteño Downtown, neighborhood of Monserrat, in the area where the foundation of Buenos Aires took place. The Plaza de Mayo is the most important and oldest public square of the city. The name of this square commemorates the Revolution of May 25, 1810, date in which the citizens gathered around to expel the Viceroy and formed a creole government. Since then, the Square has been a silent witness to the most important political and social events in the country.

The Puerto de Frutos may sound like a tropical paradise, but it’s actually a charming little pier on the banks of the Luján River in Tigre. Back in the mid-20th century, boats would unload piles of fresh fruit here, straight from the Paraná Delta — basically the old-school version of a farmers’ market with more water and fewer Instagram filters. Today, instead of crates of oranges, you’ll find a bustling market full of crafts, décor, and enough souvenirs to make your suitcase groan.

Back in 1909, the locals decided life needed a little more excitement — so they created a club where everyone could get together, play sports, relax, and, of course, enjoy a touch of European glamour with a fancy casino. Think of it as Tigre’s early version of a country club mixed with a playground for fun and leisure, where rowing oars and roulette wheels went hand in hand.

Great tour: don’t hesitate to book
This was a great tour. It covered so many highlights and we are so glad we booked this for a day. Juan Manuel was our guide and he was welcoming, polite and very knowledgeable on a variety of subjects. The boat ride on the Tigre Delta was great. Driver was great in getting us around safely and slowing die some photo ops where we weren’t stopping. The stories in Recoleta cemetery were great.
