OK, I was a woman from NY alone in BA on a 1 week business trip with only 1 day to spare to see the city. Saw this on tripadvisor and booked the 2hr tour. The meeting spot was only 2 blocks from my hotel. I really enjoyed this!!! Instead of a 2 hr tour I stayed for a 7... More

Sue and I had a great day with Carlos on 25 April (after a little hiccup with bookings - my fault) for which Carlos covered very gracefully - thanks. The insights into BA's history and architecture were fascinating and poignant. To have recounted the events of the late 70's and early 80's in this country through the eyes of someone... More

Took the tour Friday March 30 at 11a with Oliver. He was very prompt and he met us at our apartment in Recoleta. We took a taxi ride to the start of our tour. The actual walk has many stops and lots of information so you aremt tired and all can keep us. I took the tour with my 18... More

I arrived late into BA, spotted the small brochure for this attraction in the hotel foyer and decided to meet up the next day for a morning walking tour. As I only had one day in BA it was a really good way to see the city and better than walking around on my own. In fact I decided to... More

John and I would thoroughly recommend both the morning and afternoon tours - better than a guidebook anyday, this very personalised and thoroughly engaging tour told us lots we didn't know. Once Carlos had carefully established our background and interests, he was able to more accurately focus his comments towards us. Seeing this wonderful and amazing city through the eyes... More

A friend suggested that I walking tour of BA with BA-Walking-Tours. I liked my first tour so much, that I decided to do a second tour. I also felt that the company was so professional that I used them to book a tango night. The first tour was the Recoleta afternoon tour (which focuses on the cemetry). It was really... More

If you are young and fit you will enjoy the personalised insight that these enthusiastic guides give you. I went on both - don't wear flip flops - I ended up with blisters as you cover some ground in 2.5 hours. As an introduction to the city it beats sitting on a tour bus looking at buildings but you have... More

My husband & I took a morning walking tour with Charlie. Only one other couple came along. So nice to have such a small group. Charlie was very knowledgeable about all we saw, giving us stories of the city, not just a list of building names. Our wish had been to learn more about the history of Buenos Aires. It... More

My husband and I decided that a walking tour would be the best way to take in BA. After a short and prompt email exchange (the day before) and payment by paypal we met Martin at 10am for the Florida to Recoleta tour. We were the only ones on the tour and it was like walking around the city with... More
