Highlights
- Campanopolis - Description: Do you dare to discover a mysterious medieval village half an hour from Buenos Aires?
We invite you to walk around this strange and captivating citadel, made up of 40 buildings linked by alleys, passages and secret places, located in the middle of a nature reserve, close to the Ezeiza forests. Totally built with “old and recycled materials” from auctions and demolitions, the castles contain, among other curiosities: the old iron columns of the Galerías Pacífico, the old gates of the Palermo Hippodrome, lights and clocks of the Plaza de Mayo, among others. thousands of valuable antiques. We will be amazed by the ingenuity and ability of Don Antonio Campana (its founder) to materialize this fantasy, without plans or architects… You will visit the Museum of Wood, the Iron Museum and the Caireles Museum, as well as the 12 stone houses, slag and bricks worthy of the Snow White story.
Meeting point: Cerrito 570

Campanopolis magical place. - Simply delighted! Campanopolis is a very special magical place. Walking through the village, among the trees, birds singing, an indescribable peace. A medieval village that is well worth visiting. Preferably take the tour by hiring a tour company. You will receive information about the place, from those who created and made the dream of building this magical place come true. Beautiful photos will be taken. I highly recommend it.

Charming, but with poor support and in a risky area. - Campanopolis is a charming experience! It is a village thought of as an open-air work of art. Their castles are like sculptures full of doors and windows that do not give access to a physical area but rather access to a creative imagination and full of dreams. The place is perfect to be enchanted and take good photos. That's the good part! The bad part is that it is located in an auto-risk zone, where Uber drivers only go if there is some additional credit and there is no taxi availability. Be sure to leave a car scheduled for return or choose to pay more for a closed tour. The place also does not have Wi-Fi and access to mobile networks is very limited. They don't make it any easier. A place of this size should already offer free Wi-Fi to paying guests. There are few snack options (ham and cheese sandwiches/empanadas/industrial snacks/popsicles). They don't accept cards at all (another absurdity!). They accept pesos and dollars at official rates only. The place is beautiful but they need to improve a lot in infrastructure, mainly because they are in a risky and isolated area.

Nice walk - Excellent walk, everything very organized, the transfer and the tour of the village is spectacular. A single detail is that for those of us who live in Argentina, in the end they charge you for the tickets in dollars, when the bank cuts off your credit card, even though the company tells you that they are in Argentine pesos, they charge you in the bank an additional 75% for all taxes...

Relatively bad experience. - It would have been better, but they arrived 30 minutes late to pick us up, they didn't warn us that you couldn't pay anything with a card and most of the people were foreigners (it's the way we pay), so I couldn't buy repellent for the people. mosquitoes. It was a bad experience in that sense. The place is beautiful, the guides are very nice.

The price in pesos is a lie! - The price is a lie. They give you the price in ARS pesos but in reality they later charge you in USD dollars at the official exchange rate (which does not exist) and it is much more expensive. Is a gotcha! It is not at all advisable to buy through this platform.
