Plaza De Mayo
Duration: 20 minutes. Located in the heart of Buenos Aires, in the Monserrat neighborhood, Plaza de Mayo marks the historical site of the city's founding. It is the oldest and most significant public square in Buenos Aires. The square's name commemorates the May Revolution of 1810, when citizens gathered to overthrow the Viceroy and establish a local government. It has since been the backdrop for pivotal political and social events in Argentina.
· 20 min

San Telmo
A brief passage through this historic neighborhood, known for its bohemian atmosphere, temporary art galleries, lively bars, and striking street art. Defensa Street, lined with antique shops and bustling cafes, leads to Dorrego Square, a popular Sunday market and performance spot. Meandering paths wind through Lezama Park, shaded by jacaranda trees. The area also boasts exclusive restaurants offering tango shows.

La Boca
Duration: 15 minutes. This working-class district offers several attractions along the Riachuelo river. The Caminito street, a colorful alleyway with zinc houses reflecting its immigrant past, is adorned with asadores and street artists.

Caminito

Retiro
A drive-through of this diverse neighborhood with tranquil streets.

Not optimal
April_M, September 2026
Our tour was given in both English and Spanish which was not my understanding when making the reservations. Pick up at our hotel was 30 minutes late with no communication even when I texted. A break was taken for coffee and bathroom only 25 minutes later! Not the best.
