Highlights

The arrival of the Peronist party in the 1940s meant huge economic and political benefits for the Argentine workers, and the most emblematic political figure that represented this social change was doubtlessly Eva Peron. Evita’s humble and dark origins, her rapid rise to power and her struggle against the upper classes, turned her into both the most loved and hated figure of modern Argentina. Her early death and the mysterious disappearance of her body turned Evita into the legend we all know today. This Tour explores Peronism’s greatest landmarks, and Evita’s “stomping grounds”. This is an essential “crash course” and journey to understand Argentine politics, both past and present.

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.
