Itinerary
During the navigation, travelers will explore the unique waterways of the Tigre Delta, a vast network of rivers and narrow channels surrounded by lush subtropical vegetation. As the boat glides through the calm waters, guests will see traditional stilt houses, elegant weekend residences, historic rowing clubs, floating supermarkets, and river taxis — all part of daily island life. The guide explains how locals commute, attend school, and adapt to living in this remarkable river ecosystem. Along the way, enjoy peaceful scenery, fresh air, and excellent photo opportunities while discovering the history, culture, and natural beauty that make the Delta one of Argentina’s most distinctive landscapes.
Enjoy a snack at Vivanco restaurant trying some hand-made empanadas. Be welcome to a sensory, friendly, fresh and natural environment located within one of the emblematic rowing clubs of the city of Tigre.
The Puerto de frutos is a small pier located on the banks of the Luján River in the town of Tigre, next to which the fruit market is located. Its name comes from the mid-twentieth century where the fruit production of the Paraná Delta used to disembark in that area, and was then marketed in the city of Buenos Aires
Victorica Avenue is the coastal walk that borders the Luján River to reach the elegant gardens that surround the headquarters of the Tigre Deliberative Council and the Tigre Art Museum
Pass by: In 1909, a society was formed with the purpose of founding a club that would bring together the inhabitants of the place and would be a space for the practice of sports and recreation, including at the same time a casino in the European style

Traveler reviews
Beautiful Boat Tour
Great tour, Sofia was a wonderful guide. We loved taking the boat through the river delta and visiting Tigre.
A Wonderful and Leisurely Day on the Delta!
We had a fantastic time on our tour of the Tigre Delta! Our guide, Debora, was absolutely wonderful—she was so knowledgeable and shared so much interesting information about the history and culture of the city of Tigre. The boat ride itself was incredibly enjoyable and relaxing. Overall, it was a very leisurely, stress-free tour that allowed us to just sit back and take in the beautiful scenery. I would highly recommend this experience (and Debora!) to anyone looking to explore the area.
What a great experience!
We had an excellent tour; Debora was a great guide, providing us with all kinds of information and resolving all our doubts. David was a very good driver, highly recommended.
Get out out of town to another world, tranquil and beautiful.
This was a lovely, relaxing way to escape the big city, see the countryside, and explore a world where people live on islands without roads, serviced only by water taxis. And Pablo, our guide and driver was very knowledgeable and personable.
Nice Day Trip - Scenic and Low Stress
Nice boat tour of the Tigre Delta. The area reminded me a bit like Florida around the Crystal River springs. Ride to the Delta can be a bit bouncy. We went on a rainy day, but stayed dry inside the boat. It would have been nicer to be up topside however. The port town of Tigre was also nice and low stress compared with the bustle of Buenos Aires. The food was great; we ate inside a building run by the local Italian rowing club.
