Absolutely enjoyed our city walk with Martin! What a tour guide - full of passion and understanding of the city. You can always walk around and enjoy the nice building but the walk allowed us to understand and appreciate those said nice building along with context and complicated Argentine history!

Victoria is amazing! I went on the Recoleta Cemetery tour yesterday and the free tour Recoleta and Retiro. Both were absolutely amazing! Victoria really knows the history of this place and answered all questions asked. Such a great way to learn about the history of this beautiful city. Thanks so much for an amazing experience! Here is just a few photos of the 100+ I took.

Took 3 walking tours while in BA - Recoletta, La Boca and the Cemetary tour. Thoroughly enjoyed each one , all guides were very engaging and good story tellers with a lot of passion. Highly recommend.

100% recommend this company! We did the Recoleta/Retiro and La Boca/Caminito tours. TAKE CASH TO TIP- (at this time) they accept Argentine pesos, USD, Euros, (and maybe Brazilian Real?) Please tip these folks well- they deserve it and their economy is not doing great. If you don't have cash, the best way is to use Western Union. Juan and Nahuel were super amazing tour guides that were friendly, funny, knowledgable and super helpful in recommending all things BA.

Martin was a very interesting and engaging speaker. He was able to share wonderful tips to first-timers in Buenos Aires. I really enjoyed learning about architecture from him.
