Small-group Buenos Aires City Tour With Pick Up At Cruise Port

Great abbreviated tour of the city. Comfortable bus. Knowledgeable tour guide. There were only 5 people and the guide needed to switch back between English and Spanish. She did a great job.

Perfect Overview of Buenos Aires We had quick stops at various locations through out the city. Both the older and newer areas were visited.

Jonathan, our guide, was awesome! He was so informative and flowed between English and Spanish so effortlessly. We saw so many interesting sights today!

It was bilingual and was not supposed to be. The places we saw was lacking in substance. We didn’t go to more important sites A guy got on the bus and took our picture then at the end of the tour he had cheesy photos with us photoshopped into different places we didn’t not go. It seemed like every stop was planned to sell us stuff This was Summa tour . I wouldn’t recommend this tour

This was a small group tour by mini bus which held about 21 people. Buenos Aires is a big city so this tour takes in some of the highlights but you would need days to really explore the city. We were on a cruise so had limited time. We enjoyed our trip. You are driven around the city and get off bus for short periods of time to see sights and take photos. I would have liked more time at cathedral and in the La Boca area. This could have been achieved by omitting the wine tasting. Our guide was very informative and spoke good English.

It was a great tour. Giselle, the tour gide was excellent. We spent everywhere that time what was necessary. I promise this tour everyone.

It is hard to listen to our guide when he switches from talking in Spanish and English? He was very good and helpful and answered all our questions.

A good choice to see the highlights of BA in half a day. They will pick you up at the cruise terminal and bring back to your ship.

Wonderful informative tour guide. Comfortable van overall great city tour of Buenos Aires with pick up and return to cruise port.

Pick up at cruise port on time. Tour guide hold a sign with my name on it which was very good for me to see him. Love the colourful Caminito neighbourhood. Recommended this tour if you only have a day in Buenos Aires.

This was a wonderful, informative tour of a beautiful city. We went from neighborhood to neighborhood while guide was explaining the different areas. Noted several monuments and churches. Two of which we were allowed in. Gorgeous! I am sorry I don't remember the young lady's name. She was very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. And her English was way better than my Spanish!

Instructions for departure at 9:30AM stated pickup at door 12 of the damaged Buenos Aires cruise terminal. There the Summa group tour guide Sophie greeted us with a logo umbrella and waiting van at 9:30AM. WE whisked off to visit 8 different neighborhoods of Buenos Aires covering the waterfront to the north of Palermo and Recoleto. The stop for the charming Recoleto church included tasting of Dulce de leche spread in a neighbor hood walk. Sophia filled in all the blanks on history. WE visited the Plaza Mayor and "Pink House". We had plenty of time for the Cathedral indoor visit. . WE wandered southward into Boca with a short stop at the famous soccer( football ) stadium. WE had an hour plus in Boca to enjoy the bright paintings and tango dancers .Some sought local food and "el bano" stop here. WE enjoyed the other neighborhoods some with stops and some with drive-bys such as the Obelisk and Theatre Colon. Our bus wandered back to the port after 5 hours of pursuing a great view of Buenos Aires with drop into the terminal. WE got much history and political commentary from our guide Sophia. She made the dark days of Argentina real when 30,000 young people went missing. But loving talked of her country. With only 10 passengers in our van getting in and out of the van made the trip efficient yet comfortable. There were no bad seats. As one whpo had

Too many stops, but otherwise great. Driver and guide were Avery good. Definitely good value. A smaller bus with less people should be consideted, even if it means having to charge a bit more.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The tour guide was excellent and provided a lot of wonderful information. We appreciated that even though it was a small van, she used a microphone. Easy to hear and understand. She was great keeping our group together and it as a nice combination of riding in the van and walking around points of interest.

Our guide is fantastic. I wish he talks a little slower for us seniors. The van that we travel in is very comfortable. Thanks

Excellent tour guide Lionel! Beautiful architecture Very nice city and clean city Amazing variety of parks Very reasonable price

Franco was an excellent guide. Five stars. Very good English, funny, and knowledgeable. Highly recommended. More below about our overall experience. ================= The guide (Ezequiel) for this tour on Feb 25, 2023, arrived at our hotel after Franco [from a Viator local contractor] for a small group tour had already picked up my wife and myself and we were on the tour in a small van with about a dozen other participants. If the private tour guide had arrived first, he would have been our guide for the next 4 hrs. I paid $112 for this learning experience in Buenos Aires. My fault, not TripAdvisor's [except for the fact that Viator is a subsidiary of TripAdvisor and should have known there was a scheduling conflict between city tours because my name is shared in both TripAdvisor and Viator accounts. An advantage for sister companies is that they can share customer data and alert travelers in time to resolve potential scheduling conflicts. TripAdvisor/Viator seems to have neither the competence nor interest in using 21st century software technology to ensure a better customer experience. Having to pay for a tour not taken is not a good customer experience.]

I received an email notification on Dec 16 that this tour on Buenos Aires for Dec. 16, 2022 was cancelled by the tour operator and I would be fully refunded, Then on Dec.18, 2022 hours later when I could get on WiFi from the cruise ship I saw an email that the tour van was waiting for me! Poor communication and I missed a tour that I really wanted to go on! Poor communication!

We were very excited about this tour that morning. It was our first time in Buenos Aires. We easily found our tour guide at port and started the tour on time. We visited Plaza de Mayo, La Boca, Ricoleta and the cemetery (Evita’s tomb). Great information and insights of the region. We learned things on this tour that you couldn't get from a book. Wonderful guide.

Excellent tour. We had actually booked for the wrong day but the guide was able to change our reservation to the day we were there so we were able to go. This was very much appreciated.

Disastrous. The directions were not good and I never found the rendezvous The trip was intended primarily for cruise passengers but did not say exclusively . The rendezvous was known to cruise passengers. I asked for help from port staff and others. They did not know where it was. I tried to contact the organisers without success.They did not successfully contact me. I asked for my money back but this was refused. There was an offer to reschedule but then the offer was withdrawn immediately I agreed to it. I do not think this cavalier attitude to customers has a place in the tourist industry. Dennis Mays

The tour was great. We hit all of the important places. The vehicle was full - there were about 22+ people on the small bus. We were picked up and dropped off at the port, all on time. Two suggestions. 1. More time (+15 min.) should be allowed at the plaza stop and less at the market stop. We had adequate time at the Cominada stop. 2. The guide appeared to be more comfortable in Portuguese and much less so in English. The group was 50-50 English-Portugese, the commentary was 30-70. A better guide would have been helpful.

This tour was well-organized and covered the key sights of the city. We were provided with clear instructions for meeting our guide and were picked up on time. Our guide, Leandro, was informative and helpful and gave us appropriate time to spend at each stop. We felt that we had been given a great overview of this enormous city in the few hours we had for the tour.

Firstly we were supposed to be picked up outside of Gate 8 from our cruise terminal, a group of us were waiting just outside the door. The Guide was waiting outside of the port, as they were not allowed in - maybe the instructions should be clearer on where we should all wait - this wasted 20 minutes. We had only a 4 hour tour of the city (Buenos Aires is a large city). We stopped at the Cemetery (which was fine), we were provided an opportunity to go to the toilet there, which we did. We then went onto the next stop and had to wait 20 minutes at a coffee shop/toilet stop while the guide sad down for a coffee and we had to wander off to do nothing? We then stopped at the end for 30 minutes around a crowded market (which was restrictive on where we could walk due to security). I did not sign up for a coffee/market tour - very disappointing!

Despite the large group, our tour guide provided a lot of interesting information in good English--while allowing for some walking time. Great value for money, and left us wanting to return for more
