Fabulous tour with Mariela
We had a great day with Mariela, who is friendly, charming and very knowledgeable and passionate about the beautiful city of Buenos Aires. Mariela went above and beyond, answering all our questions and even assisting us with obtaining money even though the tour had finished. Thank you so much Mariela!
Informative and personal
Herlado was the perfect guide. His knowledge of the sites we visited and overall South American history was incredible. He was friendly and totally engaged so that we felt it truly was a personal excursion. It was a highlight of our trip.
Every beautiful tomb tells a fantastic story!
Franco was punctual, is knowledgeable, and did a good job explaining Recoleta Cemetery history. I may have even found one of my family members entombed on the same row as Evita Peron. If you like Cemeteries, I believe you will like these beautiful works of art and their fascinating history. Regrettably, due to my ailing back, I had to cut the tour short. Franco was understanding and assisted me getting an Uber to take me back to my short-term rental. THANK YOU, FRANCO!!
Terrific introduction to Buenos Aires!!
Our host, Pablo, enthusiastically shared Argentine history and Buenos Aires architecture and history all while exploring the Recoleta district on a walking tour. He was delightful. The tour was adjusted to our pace and interests.
What a great tour!
I was greeted promptly by the very professional and friendly guide Facundo. He really knows his city and had many fascinating stories about the inhabitants, architecture and history of this great city. The pace was relaxed and yet we covered quite a bit of territory. I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent with Facundo, and strongly recommend booking this tour with him. He is personable, flexible and easy going. Thanks again!
