After morning pickup from your hotel, your knowledgeable guide takes you around Buenos Aires for a tour of the city’s most noteworthy sites. Along the way, note the strong European influence in the architecture, hear about the city’s colonial history and see places frequented by locals.

See the emblematic Obelisco, where the flag of Argentina was raised for the first time ever in the city, and Avenida 9 de Julio, considered the widest avenue in the world. In the Plaza de Mayo, admire the presidential mansion of La Casa Rosada (Pink House), from where Juan and Eva Perón stood on balconies and spoke to adoring citizens. At the Metropolitan Cathedral, hear about its history of construction woes before it became the Catholic headquarters in Argentina.

Visit the Cementerio de la Recoleta, an exclusive cemetery for Argentina’s wealthiest and most famous historical figures, including Eva Perón. Wander around mausoleums that resemble Greek temples, chapels, and mini-mansions.

Check out various barrios, including San Telmo, the oldest one dating back to the 17th century, filled with colonial architecture and bohemian hotspots. In Puerto Madero, admire the rotating footbridge of Puente de la Mujer (Bridge of the Woman). See Plaza San Martín in Retiro, and admire the steel and aluminum sculpture of Floralis Genérica, as well as the avant-garde Museum of Latin American Art of Buenos Aires, known as MALBA.

Enjoy an urban retreat in Parque 3 de Febrero (February 3 Park), part of the massive Los Bosques de Palermo (Palermo Woods) boasting lakes, a rose garden and expansive green lawns.

In the working-class barrio of La Boca, visit Caminito, a colorful artist haven of cobblestone streets, corrugated-iron houses and studios. La Boca is also home to El Club Atlético Boca Juniors, one of the most popular soccer teams in Argentina.

Your guide escorts you past lines of people waiting to enter the Passion of Boca Juniors Museum. Enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at the team history and its neighboring home stadium, formally known as Estadio Alberto J Armando. Coined by locals as ‘La Bombonera,’ or candy box because of its shape, the stadium holds more than 61,000 spectators.

Your revealing 4-hour city tour ends with transport back to your hotel.
