Descripción del Tour:

The walking tour kicks off at our San Telmo office. As one of Buenos Aires' oldest neighborhoods, San Telmo is renowned for its vibrant tango and arts scene. The area is characterized by its antique markets, iconic street lamps known as "faroles," cobblestone streets, historic buildings, and original decor, all contributing to its distinctive bohemian atmosphere. Sundays are particularly lively when the street market comes alive around Plaza Dorrego.

Our journey will take us to the San Telmo market, established in 1897 to cater to the influx of immigrants at that time.

Today, while some vendors still offer meat, vegetables, and other groceries, the majority showcase local cuisine and specialties from around the globe. Here, we will savor some tasty empanadas.

We will proceed down Defensa Street, the central artery of the San Telmo neighborhood, until we reach the park.

We'll board a bus to La Boca neighborhood, famous for the Boca Juniors stadium and the colorful Caminito street. Here, we'll be captivated by street tango performances and gain insights into how tango, soccer, and various immigration influences have shaped Buenos Aires into one of the world's most captivating cities.

On another bus, we'll enjoy views of the modern skyscrapers of Puerto Madero until we arrive at Plaza de Mayo, the political hub of Argentina and the main square of Buenos Aires. Our exploration will include a visit to the Metropolitan Cathedral and a look at the Cabildo, the colonial City Hall, and the Casa Rosada, the executive power's headquarters.

Following our tour of the square, we'll head to the Obelisk, an emblem of Buenos Aires. Immerse yourself in this remarkable metropolis by experiencing the daily life of an Argentine citizen as we stroll along the bustling 9 de Julio Avenue, the widest avenue globally. The historical buildings, monuments, and streets will reveal the transformations the city has undergone since its inception.

We will reach the Recoleta neighborhood via the subway, where stunning architecture, numerous museums, elegant cafes and restaurants, exclusive avenues, and shopping centers await.

Our visit will include the impressive Recoleta Cemetery, the final resting place of many aristocratic families and renowned historical figures such as Eva Duarte Perón.

After exploring the cemetery, we'll take a bus to the Montserrat neighborhood to visit the Barolo Palace, inaugurated in 1923 and designated a National Historic Monument. Its architecture is rich in symbolism, featuring numerous analogies and references to Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy.
