- Barrio Ingles - Known as the “English” neighborhood of Caballito, this is one of the city’s most beautiful residential areas. Originally constructed for the working class, it features neoclassical architectural styles.
- Mercado del Progreso - At 130 years old, this is the city’s oldest market. Primarily focused on meat, most vendors are butchers. It is a traditional market with an old-fashioned charm that transports visitors back in time.
- Cementerio de la Chacarita - While most tourists visit the Recoleta Cemetery, few are aware of another monumental cemetery in the city: the Cemetery of Chacarita, which is 25 times larger. It boasts monumental architecture comparable to or exceeding that of Recoleta, and is the resting place of the greatest tango artists, including Carlos Gardel, as well as popular icons and social associations. A truly hidden gem.

Amazing 4 hours with a great guide - Our guide Mariano was fantastic—both informative and engaging. We explored amazing locations off the usual tourist paths. Their deep knowledge of architecture and history truly stood out. The tour visits many areas of the city that are often ignored by tourists but very well known by locals, including the visit to a market, a beautiful church, a cemetery and 3 gorgeous residential Areas. I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone!

Bs As but different - Although I already knew Buenos Aires quite well, the intention of this trip was to do something different. To that end I decided on this tour and I will be pleasantly surprised. We toured areas unknown to me until then, capturing new facets of this great city. Mariano, the Guide of this personalized tour, not only “nourished” me with a lot of architectural and historical information about the places visited but also gave us very good additional data; an excellent host and better person.
I only have to thank you and recommend it 100%

A great way to see unexplored areas of Buenos Aires! - The tour was really nice, and I had a guide that had both excellent history- architecture and english skills, so I learned a lot. Was also really great to have a driver that was intimately known in BA, as that made dropoffs and pick ups along the route very smooth. Highly recommended!
