Itinerary
Start your morning with a pickup from your downtown hotel. Your city sightseeing tour begins in Retiro, and continue along Libertador Avenue toward Palermo, home to the city’s largest green spaces. Then head to Recoleta, one of the most elegant districts, known for its famous cemetery, where Eva Perón rests. Next, admire the impressive Teatro Colón, one of the world’s most renowned opera houses, located near the iconic Avenida 9 de Julio. You’ll then visit Plaza de Mayo, the political heart of the city, where you can take photos of the Casa Rosada. The tour continues to San Telmo, one of the oldest neighborhoods, known for its colonial architecture and traditional atmosphere. From there, you’ll head to La Boca to explore Caminito, a vibrant street filled with colorful houses and tango culture, near the famous Boca Juniors stadium. Finally, drive through Puerto Madero, the city’s most modern and stylish district. At the end of the tour, you’ll continue to the Tigre Delta excursion.
Then, travel along the riverside to San Isidro, where you’ll see its cathedral and elegant historic mansions. Continue toward Tigre, passing through this well-known district on the way to the delta. In Tigre, enjoy a 40-minute catamaran cruise through the delta’s waterways, where you’ll observe island life, stilt houses, and unique services such as floating supermarkets and water taxis. You’ll also see President Sarmiento’s house-museum. At the end of the boat ride, return to Buenos Aires by bus, with the tour concluding in the city center.
After exploring Buenos Aires and its surroundings in depth, your experience continues in the evening with an unforgettable tango show. Enjoy an authentic night at El Querandí, a traditional tango house decorated in classic style. Your evening begins with a hotel pickup, followed by a delicious three-course dinner paired with Argentine wines. Then, sit back and enjoy a captivating tango performance, where live music, talented dancers, and singers bring the passion and history of Buenos Aires to life. At the end of the show, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel.

Traveler reviews
It was ok
This was 3 trips in one and I knew it would be a challenging day. Tigre delta was a nice boat trip but we spent longer picking up other people than we spent on the boat. You also get 2 other short stops, neither very interesting and the main purpose was to get food as you don't have long enough to stop for lunch of you're doing the city tour in the afternoon. The city tour was good as it gave you an overview of the main sights and was an easy way to get round. There areally 3 stops, racollette cemetery, la plaza mayo and la boca. Each were to long to do nothing but not long enough to do what you want.The tango show was the highlight for me. You get a short tango dance lesson followed by a 3 course dinner with pretty decent wine then the tango show. The singing and dancing in the show were amazing but filled with indulgent musical interludes to stretch the show time out. Despite that, still a highlight. You're back in your hotel by midnight-ish. This is an easy going evening that's fun of you just go with the flow
