Beautiful Buenos Aires 😎 - What an amazing experience lead by our wonderful guide Enzo. He and my history buff husband learned so much from each other. We got to visit all the highlights off this beautiful city with such a personal touch. Unfortunately we only had a few hours before our ship left. However I feel we really got to experience a lot of Buenis Aires thanks to Enzo! Until next time 😎

Muchas Gracias Enzo 🤗 - A private tour as we would like to do more often. We had the chance to do this tour with Enzo. Throughout the neighborhoods and its explanations, it was a real immersion in this fabulous city of Buenos Aires but also this country Argentina. A true enthusiast of all the history that this country has gone through, took us for a day aboard his taxi. From the boca district, to palermo while passing through puerto madero, recoleta... quite a contrast that characterizes this city ✈️🇦🇷. Many thanks to Enzo for his sympathy, sharing and what is more, he speaks many languages. I recommend it with my eyes closed 🫣. Muchas Gracias 🙏

In the heart of the ciudad. - Enzo is very knowledgeable about his city and the history of his country since its foundation. His knowledge seems limitless. He taught me a lot about life in Buenos Aires, socially, politically, architecturally, culturally and gastronomically. We made many stops that made it possible to realize concretely the history of this beautiful city. Enzo is a passionate being and very kind. I highly recommend a visit with him.
