I've lived in Buenos Aires for a while. I've walked through San Telmo a couple times. After walking with rick last Satruday, it'll never be the same. Now I know the ongoing stories that it's citizens are painting on it's civil surfaces, recognize when one gang steps on the toes of an artist or vice versa, and see how the... More

Rick provides a wonderful lens to really see San Telmo and what it is all about. The tour could not have been more personable and enjoyable. It has our highest recommendation.

Unfortunately we were not wowed by the street art on this occasion and felt the tour could have been more engaging. We felt it lacked the passion / enthusiasm of some guided tours we've been on and you often could not hear things that were said at the front, if you were stuck walking at the back. We didn't love...

After spending a few days in San Telmo on our own, we were very pleased to take this tour with Rick, who is so knowledgeable about the interesting street art which is all around. This is much more than just an art tour, but a great way to better understand this most interesting of BA's neighborhoods. We are usually not... More

When I visit cities - especially ones as large and as densely packed with history and culture as Buenos Aires - I love taking walking tours to get a more in-depth perspective of the life in the city. Rick's tour did not disappoint on this account. We set out on a hot summer afternoon from Plaza Dorrego and had an... More

Thanks Rick Powell for an excellent walk through the streets of San Telmo. Our walk commenced from the popular Dorrego square (Plaza Dorrego) in San Telmo - Tango has its roots in this barrio - while a live Tango performance was on. Great way to start! What was meant to be a 3 hour walk turned out to be almost... More

Prior to BA we enjoyed street arts from Rio and Santiago. Taking the art tour with Rick put the history, BA way of life, politics, art and more into context. Now I can recognize the art works by specific artists, taggings and a quick way to get a sense of where I am in BA based on the location of... More

The San Telmo art walk is fun, informative, and a completely new way to understand the art and history of a city. On our tour had a BsAs resident of close to a year, a resident of close to two months, and a visitor of a few days. We all enjoyed the tour for how it wove together history and... More

Good start to my Buenos Aires adventure, recommend starting off with it early on/when you arrive in the city. It helped with getting my bearings. Really cool street art and a visit to an art gallery as well. The guide was very knowledgeable and you could tell he was actually felt quite strongly about the art.
