Highlights
Go beyond a simple walk-and-listen tour. This is a conversational journey where you are encouraged to talk, ask questions, and discuss the layered past, present, and future of Argentina’s capital. This walking experience decodes the cityscape. We’ll trace the historical roots of contemporary Buenos Aires, using the city itself as our guidebook. Who were the first inhabitants? Why were the British so intent on invading these shores? What happened to Buenos Aires’ significant African-descendant population? How did Argentina become a nation of immigrants? What is the deal with Evita and Perón? Who were the desaparecidos, and how does their memory shape modern Argentina? Why does the US dollar hold such power over the local economy? These are not just historical trivia; they are the essential questions that unlock the soul of the city. Join us for a walk where we’ll work together to find the answers. Book your spot now and see Buenos Aires in a way you never have before!

About Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires is Argentina's elegant, passionate capital, a city of grand boulevards, tango halls, leafy barrios and late-night steak dinners.
The Plaza de Mayo, framed by the pink Casa Rosada and the Metropolitan Cathedral, is the historic heart of the city, and the vast Avenida 9 de Julio leads to the Obelisk. The Teatro Colón, one of the great opera houses, and the grand cafés of Avenida de Mayo recall the city's golden age.
