I am a firm believer that to understand a new culture, one has to look to its food. BA Food Tours offers three-hour long food walks to San Telmo, La Boca and Recoleta for foodies to discover another side of the city that doesn't exist in guidebooks. Off the beaten path restaurants are what the tours explore so come prepared... More

We were very specific on what we wanted to see and we were very pleased with the selection of places given the time we had was limited.

We were in Buenos Aires for part of our vacation and wanted to experience the flavours that the city had to offer & this food tour did not disappoint! Jorge, our wonderful guide, took us through the beautiful and vibrant streets of San Telmo explaining the neighborhoods history and architecture. We dined at great restaurants, ate tasty food, drank delicious... More

This is a review on their "La Boca" tour, not on the "San Telmo" one which most comments here seem to refer to. Jorge, our guide, is extremely nice. It was fun to spend hours with him eating and chatting about many things. We were four guests and him in the group and we had very good conversations. We started... More

Tour was given by Jorge's sister who knows nothing about food! We knew we were in for a bad day when we were taken to a food and antique market where virtually everything was closed. We were shown a church which was also closed. We had some starters in a restaurant but she didn't explain that we were going to... More

We took the Buenos Aires food tour with my husband who loves (and cooks) Argentinean food at our home in San Francisco all the time (his mother is from the north of Argentina), and we enjoyed the Telmo food tour with Jorge very much! Jorge is perfect for this job! He showed us some of the off-beaten-path small eateries and... More

My partner and I booked this tour expecting a tour about restaurants but it was a lot more than that. The guide is a friendly man who is passionate about Buenos Aires (and he loves good food!). We got a lot of insider tips which was exactly what we were looking for. We usually don't like to dine at touristy... More

We had such a great time with Jorge at the food tour in San Telmo! We loved touring with him as he told us stories about the neighborhood that only locals know. The different restaurants that we visited were unique and oh so yummy! We tried a variety of traditional Argentine foods at places that we would have never found... More
