Great tour of Buenos Aires for first time visitors. - Awesome tour! Our guide Gabriel was very informative and had great stories to tell at each location. A good mix of walking and van transport to hit the main spots to give you a grounding of Buenos Aires for first time visitors. The snacks were tasty and enough to keep you nourished through the tour.

Unlock the Magic of Buenos Aires: A Tour to Remember - Today's guided tour of Buenos Aires with Gabriel was fantastic. The logistics were flawless, with a comfortable van that made getting around the city easy. However, the real highlight was Gabriel himself. His deep knowledge of the city, combined with his ability to personalize the experience, made the tour truly exceptional. He adjusted the itinerary based on our interests, like adding a stop at the Cathedral (Placa de Mayo) and extending time at the Mercado de San Telmo when we asked. Gabriel’s enthusiasm and attentiveness turned the day into a memorable, enriching adventure. If you're visiting Buenos Aires, this tour is a must!
