Congress Landmarks, Caminito and Tango Night

Meet your local tour guide at the airport for pick-up and transfer. Often nicknamed the "Paris of South America" due to its large European-style squares, avenues, and pompous buildings, Buenos Aires is sure to win you over with its sights.

Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local steakhouse, where you can savour the Argentinian specialty steak and the Argentinian wine special, Malbec.
Proceed to Caminito (street museum and traditional alley), located in La Boca. This area consists of a 100 m-long pedestrian street lined with colourful houses, small art shops, and handicrafts.
Continue to the banks of the Riachuelo toward the other end of the city and pass by Puerto Madero, one of the newest and most modern neighbourhoods in Buenos Aires.
End your day with an exciting night at tango bars and clubs. Tango is a significant part of Argentinian culture, and you will enjoy learning this exciting dance form.
