You want to KNOW Buenos Aires! Take this tour with Alex. She gives you a tutorial on culture, history, sports, architecture and current life in this beautiful city. Coffee and laughter included. We learned so much in our time together! Thank you, Alex
Guide Anna was good and she clearly explained all the historical details of Buenos Aires. The driver was also friendly and both of they maintained the schedule properly.
As a native of Buenos Aires, Andres showed us his city and told us about its history complete with personal photographs. We saw all the highlights of the city including a stroll through Recoleta Cemetery along with commentary from Andres on its history. A great way to spend the day while waiting for an evening flight.
Educational experience at your own pace. Tour coverage of all sites listed. Lourdes and Sergio were both great guides.
We found it to be very enjoyable, with a knowledgable guide and great driver. Comfortable and clean car
Very informative and best value. Guide was excellent. Visited the best areas of the city and surrounding areas with a historic perspective.
Nice car and knowledgeable guide. We stopped for lunch at San Telmo food markets and recommend bites were excellent.
Our travel plans were delayed due to the strike which alteredcairline travel. So instead of 3 days to explore Buenos Aires we only had 1. I am so glad we took this tour. Florencia was an amazing tour guide and Nico was a great driver. In 6 hours we were able to cover most everything of note and visit all the various neighborhoods. I highly recommend the tour especially if your time is limited
We had a thorough informative overview of the city of Buenos Aires with the most wonderful tour guide, Lourdes. She presented information about the city and its history clearly, completely and enthusiastically. She was flexible and made sure to accommodate our interests. You could not ask for a better guide!!
Excellent tour guide (Anna) and driver (Estefan) provided by BsAstravelers through Viator. Our personalized itinerary included: Ricoleta Cemetery walk, inside visit of Ateneo Grand Splendid Book Store, guided tour of Teatro Colon, interior visit of the Cathedral, stop at the beautiful Confiteria La Ideal for empanadas, alfajores, hot chocolate, coffee, Casa Rosada’s Evita Balcony, plus much more. Large SUV for our party of four adults and all our luggage. Highly recommend this wonderful tour.
Brenda was very knowledgeable and flexible as she showed us the city of Buenos Aires and some very interesting sites
Worth every penny! We had a fantastic time with our guide Alexandra.. she was very knowledgeable and she had our sense of humour! Oh how we laughed! A wonderful tour of a beautiful city...
My husband and I just experienced one of the best tours we have ever had. We travel a lot and frequently use online sites to book excursions. Our private tour today of Buenos Aires was fabulous and ranks in our top 2 or 3 tours ever! This was 100% because of our tour guide, Lourdes. She is a rare gem and we feel like we hit the jackpot. We saw everything on our list and much more. Lourdes’ teaching was excellent. Between sites our lively and spirited conversations in the car never stopped. We feel like we have had a master class in “all things Buenos Aires and Argentina”! Lourdes was kind, insightful, smart (REALLY SMART!!!), engaging, and just very lovely. We are so thankful for today’s tour with Lourdes.
Ana was great, took us around the city, we saw all that we wanted to see, especially Recoleta Cemetery....she told us about the history of Tango and one of our couples "demonstrated" , had food at a local eatery, it was all so great! She is very passionate about her love for Buenos Aires, it's history, it's people and the community! Really great way to end our fabulous trip!
My husband and I had an amazing tour with Brenda and Nico. We have visited Buenos Aires before and had already seen the Recoletta cemetery and La Boca so they customised the tour so we could see the things we really wanted to see. Both Brenda and Nico were so polite and professional and Brenda taught us so much about Argentine history and culture. She is very warm and friendly but also very well educated and well traveled. We will be spending a month in Buenos Aires so she showed us many things that we could visit and explore later. She told us how to get tickets to a performance at Teatro Colon, tickets to a soccer match and where we can play pickleball. We had a fantastic day!!
Brenda was terrific - flexible, thoughtful and knowledgeable! We had a great experience. Our driver was also excellent - always there to pick us up after a sightseeing stop!
Ale was an amazing guide. We saw so much in just a half a day tour and she personalized it to our tastes.
Great personalized experience. We got to see a lot and places we may not have ordinarily gone too. Great tour guide!
Very good introduction to BA. Understand that cannot expect everything in 6 hours but this covered a lot of important landmarks and neighborhoods. Excellent and knowledgeable guide. The driver was also excellent.
Lourdes and Sergio our guide and driver were wonderful. Lourdes perfect English and very knowledgeable. Sergio great driver in Buenos Aires traffic. Good A/c in a comfortable car in the height of summer.
Our guide was exceptional. She asked us what we felt was important to see and then filled in the rest of the time with additional stops.
This was an absolutely wonderful private tour of Buenos Aires for four people with a driver a tour guide. Brenda was our tour guide and she took us all over the city and gave us so much information about the history of the city, monuments, political background as well as the culture and modern times in the city. We learned more than we ever could have from a guidebook and saw as much in one day as possible. It would have taken a week on our own. We looked in corners you would never think to for small pieces of history and shops and eateries along the roads. We had a wonderful experience.
The guide (Andreas) was excellent, very knowledgeable about his home town and very personable. The tour itself was very interesting and we enjoyed seeing the many faces of Buenos Aires.
After booking we were able to easily communicate with Andres through What’s App. He provided our tour guide, Alexandra’s contact info which helped tremendously as our friends had a flight delay. Alexandra was very kind and flexible. She catered the city tour to our wishes as she shared interesting history and important sights of the city that we would not have seen on our own. Alexandra’s easygoing and engaging personality added to the fun and personal experience. This is a great tour to introduce you to BA!
Anna was an excellent tour guide, very passionate about her goal to teach us about her country, it's culture/history and the city of Buenos Aires. Excellent driver. Was able to modify agenda so we could see what we most wanted to see . Would highly recommend. Also gave us great restaurant recommendations.
Enjoyed our day, interesting places. Would have been good to have seen a little more of Buenos Aires
Driver (Sergio) and tour guide (Lourdes) were both amazing. Exceptionally knowledgeable, kind and accommodating.
This was a great way to experience Buenos Aires in a day! We were able to see the highlights of the city in a really fun and informative way.
Andres was amazing. He is very knowledgeable and detailed regarding Buenos Aires. He answered all of our questions. He allowed us to travel at our pace. I would recommend this tour to everyone. It is a great tour for your first day in the city to allow you to get familiar with the city. Thank you again for an amazing day.
This tour was really worth the time! Even though we had a little bit of a weather predicament (extreme downpours and thunderstorms in BA) our tour guide made sure we made the best out of the trip. He adapted the tour so that we wouldn't feel bored while spending most of the time in the car, was prepared with a photo book to show us some of the history and older photos of the city to compare (some of these were taken by his family so it was really personal) and overall when possible we did take some really nice photos with our family. The food recommendations were next level too! Weather aside, this tour was fantastic and would do it again if possible!
An excellent oversight of Buenos Aires. Our tour guide was engaging full of energy and made our first trip to Buenos Aires extremely memorable.
I have been on multiple tours in many foreign countries. Andreas was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable and made the most of our day. You will not be disappointed.
The tour guide was amazing. Very knowledgeable of history and culture. We were very impressed with her ability to provide context to everything we saw.
Brenda was knowledgeable, kind and her English was excellent. We learned much about Argentinian history.
We had a great time. Both our guide and driver were excellent. It was very entertaining and informative.
Our guide and driver were exceptional! If planning the cemetery go as early in the morning as feasible, as there is no shade. Doing a private tour gives you a chance to see everything!
This was an awesome tour.. Allowed us to see everything in one day. This was a 6 hour private tour so we got to spend ample time in each area and move around at our own pace. Our guide, Andres, was amazing.. he was knowledgeable, fun and patient.. we especially enjoyed Le Boca, recoleta cemetery, and San Telmo market.. will highly recommend this tour.
We couldn’t ask for a better guide or a nicer day. Andres was so kind and very knowledgeable about everywhere we went. We went to a wonderful restaurant for lunch and he was able to customize our tour for the places we wanted to see. Andres was very friendly and spoke English very well. I would recommend this to anyone looking to explore the neighborhoods of Buenos Aries.
Mikaela was fantastic. We had a very enjoyable day with her and the driver in Buenos Aires!! Her knowledge of the city was very impressive!
Our guide came on time to get us. Anna was very friendly and energetic. She told us we could go and see whatever we wanted. Problem was, we didn't know enough to tell her where we wanted to go. She took us to several nice places. Our friends who were with us had wanted to go to Starbucks to get a mug, but in none of the countries up until then had we been able to do so, so she found a Starbucks for us and they were able to get an Argentina mug, which made them very happy. Anyone who plans to take the tour may want to research some places to go. We did enjoy it, but there were a few other things we might hav wanted to see.
Our guide Ana was passionate and knowledgeable on the history of Buenos Aires and we had a truely excellent two days exploring with her. I would highly recommend Ana for an in depth dive into Buenos Aires past and present and we had great fun with her!
The guide, Alex, was really knew her stuff, she told us things that we would never have learned about just walking about the city. The tour was very well organised and the taxi was always timely when picking us up from the various points across the city. We stopped for coffee when we asked as it was a 6 hour tour but at places that we wouldn't have found on our own. Can highly recommend this tour, expensive but definitely worth the money.
Florencia was an excellent hostess. She was able to adjust our tour and added things that we wanted to see and do including shopping and food! Hugo was a great driver who was very kind and polite.
Great way to see the highlights of the city, in a relatively short period of time, with a very knowledgeable guide.
The excursion in comfortable vehicle with friendly driver and experienced guide, who was ready to help with any questions and concerns.
This was such a great tour! Our guide, Lourdes, and our driver, Nico, were amazing! They made it a very personal experience. We highly recommend them! They are a great team! You should ask if they are available when you schedule this tour.
Comfortable travel with excellent guide and driver to get an overview about Buenos Aires history and neighborhoods. Communication in English was also excellent. We had some input into what we saw. Our guide directed lunch in Boca was excellent and included music, tango and regional cuisine.
Andrés was an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide. I do recommend him. Andres took us to different important sites in Buenos Aires.
Very flexible for our wishes to cover sites we hadn't already seen. Also very informative and catered to our families needs, i.e. I think we need these kids to have some ice cream!
