Must see in BA - Must see attraction in BA! Very unique experience - a necropolis that tells the history of Argentina through the lives of elites and select commoners. My tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. She was very thorough and a great storyteller. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip!

Visit to Recoleta - We did this free walking tour with Jimena as our guide. She was absolutely brilliant. Very engaging, knowledgeable, humorous and with great stories about the people buried in the cemetery. We initially were planning on doing the visit by ourselves but we would have missed out on so much. Highly recommended.

Very informative tour of the cemetery and of Buesnos Aires in general - Vicki, our English language tour guide, was an absolute treat. A native Argentinian, Vicki speaks very good English and Spanish. She brings the history of Buenos Aires and the residents of this cemetery along with folklore and facts into the stories she tells. Vicki was very attentive to us and covered a lot of ground and information. Defintitely would recommend Vicki and the English speaking tour to those interested.
