The tour was excellent. Micaela showed great knowledge in all the information she provided. It was adapted to our expectations and the data in each place was the most relevant. It was like exploring with a friend. Thank you!
Muchas gracias Fernando por sus comentarios!. Nos alegra mucho que la hayan pasado lindo, los esperamos la proxima!
It was wonderful and we loved our time.
Thank you for yout kind words!
Our guide Anna arrived promptly. While we had already done a city tour she was able to find places that we had an interest in seeing such as the fine arts museum and a up close visit to the metal flower. We then headed to the largest bookstore on South America which is housed in a beautifully restored former theater. Our final visit was to the opera house and was given a tour by the location. We were very fortunate to be able to see musicians practicing. We really enjoyed the professionalism and knowledge that Anna brought to the tour and all 4 of us truly loved it!
Thank you for your kind words- Anna is great! We are happy that you enjoyed the tour!
Tour was great. We also booked transportation to and from airport and everything ran perfectly, Our guide was truly passionate about her job!! It was infectious
Thank you, Ron, for your kind words. We look forward to seeing you here sometime. Best regards
Jael and Christian were brilliant. They were warm, knowledgeable, flexible and well organized. It was very comfortable to be driven around in an air conditioned private car on a very hot day. They asked us if there were specific things we wanted to experience and were able to tailor the tour for us. They were generation for other activities like museums, restaurants and shopping. Not only was it informative but easy and fun. I highly recommend this tour.

Muchas Gracias Roberto por sus palabras!!, nos alegra que haya disfrutado la experiencia! Veronica es una gran guia- Lo esperamos nuevamente en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires! :-)
The private city tour allowed us to see many of the highlights of Buenos Aires and enjoy a tour of Teatro Colon in a short time. Our tour guide Lorena was friendly, knowledgeable and flexible in dealing with a sudden rain storm; and our driver was quite capable.
Thank you Vickie for your comments! We're glad you had a good time!
Nicholas and our driver met us at our hotel and helped us have an amazing introduction to Buenos Aires. Our flight landed at 6:15 am, so we were worried about getting checked into our hotel and exploring on our own so early. Nicholas was lovely, when I asked if we might grab an empanada he ushered us into a little shop and bought us a couple. We enjoyed all the sights, attention to details, and overall his knowledge. As we were wrapping up we asked about wine recommendations and if we could stop at a wine shop. He whipped his phone and looked for a shop nearby, actually found one close run by a woman who used to give tours as well. We had little impromptu wine tasting! Overall excellent experience.
Hi Anna!Thanks so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear that Nicholas and our driver could make your first day in Buenos Aires so special, especially after such an early flight.! We hope the rest of your stay is turning out excellent. If you're ever back in town, we'd love to help you explore more of Buenos Aires!
Dani and Nico were professional and cheerful people. They answered all my questions about the city and the Colon, even when some of them where difficult to know. They also have a nice actitud and the tour was really well organized with interesting spots. I loved it. I would do it again. ¡Maybe next year with my family! ¡Thank you guys!
Hello! Thank you for your comments, we hope you have enjoyed our beautiful city and we look forward to seeing you when you want to return with your family!
