Classic tour designer in Buenos Aires
Description:
We all like to collect coffee, sandwiches and desserts, adding syrups, sauces, cheeses or pieces of chocolate to taste. Why not do the same with a city tour? Take as a basis the classic tourist route, which includes all the main attractions, and offer a menu of “fillers” to it.
The tour will start from the hotel where you are staying. We will walk along the widest street in Latin America - Avenue on July 9, see a 36-meter white obelisk, a pink presidential palace, visit May Square, where the Argentines declared independence from Spain, and in the cathedral, where the current Pope Francis used to serve, pass through the colonial district of San Telmo, famous for its underground tunnels and flea market. Then we head south to the old port, to La Boca.
I will tell you about the artist who invented the famous colored houses, and about the tango, which was born in immigrant barracks and brothels. Show a wasteland of abandoned warehouses, turned into a prestigious area of skyscrapers, design studios and the most expensive restaurants - Puerto Madero. And then we will go to the city of angels - Recoleta - one of the most famous and beautiful cemeteries in the world. And now it's time for fillers. Walk through the botanical garden with a tasting of mate. Mini-excursion on the first line of the Buenos Aires Metro, opened in 1913. Visit an old hotel for expats.
Or the Orthodox Holy Trinity Church, which was built on the donations of Nicholas II. Each "filler" increases the price of the tour by $10. As a free bonus, I will help you buy a local sim card, tell you how to use a transport card and how to send home postcards from Buenos Aires.
