Informative city tour

We did the city tour with Dalila. She took a lot of time for us and gave us a very good overview of Buenos Aires, its history and current situation! Thank you so much!

Wonderful tour.

This is a wonderful tour. I will say you walk for 5 hrs, but we got to see all of Buenos Aires. Our tour guide was terrific. She showed us things we would have never seen on our own. Just a wonderful tour.
