About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Q7556CArebeccaa0 contributionsWorth itA perfect blend of European elegance and Latin passion. Great city tour with informative stops, though some areas need more time.Written January 20, 2025
- harrietqp0 contributionsFantastic Tango experienceThis was a fantastic experience. We were picked up and later dropped off at our hotel right on time. Our table was reserved for us at a great spot. The dancers were fabulous, the band was exceptional, and the other entertainment was far above expectations. The dinner was so good. Everything flavorful and the wine kept flowing. This is a must do for everyone visiting Buenos Aires.Written January 16, 2025
- bush_turkey0 contributionsImpressive show but expect transport chaos.Our experience at the La Vantana was mixed but overall, I wouldn’t recommend this tango experience. We were picked up from our hotel by La Vantana transport at 7:20pm for a 20 minute drive to the venue. Check-in was easy and we were shown to our table. The venue ambience is excellent but seating is on long tables and you take pot luck as to who you are sitting next to. They have crammed as many people in as possible and once seated, it is very difficult to get out and even visit the bathroom, without others having to move their seats or stand up. Dinner was served from 8pm and took 2 hours. Food was very good, given 300+ people were being fed. The tango show started at 10pm and lasted for around an hour. The show was impressive, although it was one song after another, with no interaction with the audience. We had been warned about the chaos in trying to get most of the audience back to their hotels on the complimentary transport. We therefore left the performance just before the end and caught an Uber fairly quickly. We ran into people the next day who had sat at our table and they mentioned they had been dropped off at their hotel at 12:45am. Patrons weren't clearly told what bus to get on and there were "musical chairs" in some people initially getting on the wrong bus. Given the nearly US$200 per person cost for this evening and for only about an hour of show, I think it would have been much better value to have dinner outside of the venue and just visit the show separately. I’d certainly not recommend the free transport to and from the venue unless you are very patient and don’t care how much time it takes to get back to your room.Written January 12, 2025
- steamfan0070 contributionsEnjoyed the show - the food less soThe tour loses a star because the dinner was disappointing: for a city that's famous for its steaks, the steaks served with dinner were mostly tough/overdone (not just our personal view but one that was shared by many of those sitting around us). The show itself was fun, with various small groups of dancers performing the Tango, interspersed with songs that were well known to Argentinians, who sang along, but were unfamiliar to foreigners.Written January 10, 2025
- Kerryn720 contributionsJust wowWOW....just wow. the guided tour was worth the 23000 peso. The theatre is stunning and so regal- can only imagine what it's like seeing a show there. So much history and tradition. Opened in 1912 the stained glass panels are sensational. The tour takes in the foyer, Golden Hall, stalls. Cant believe the main chandelier has 738 light globes!!Written January 8, 2025
- Goneflying1430 contributionsShow was unexpectedly GREAT!The show was unexpectedly good . The different category of show was terrific . We didn’t get the dinner package because I saw some bad review . But I did a la carte and food was good . The show was fantastic variety and I really really really enjoyed it .Written January 5, 2025
- hamsinib20230 contributionsVery so so showWe just booked the show option and no dinner. A few things for folks: 1. The stage is quite awkward, large sections of the seating area only see one part, so you don’t get to see all the dancers. 2. The premium seats are all taken by folks who have dinner option. You get tucked into a corner if you just have the show. 3. The service quality is so so. 4. Performance theme is good - tango over the decades but the quality of the performance and dancers was quite so so. It could be just our experience but for a bit more - we really enjoyed the Almacen abd Cafe De Los Angelitos - these two were far superior in all aspectsWritten January 4, 2025
- B1594RLamandac0 contributionsThe mountains of BarilocheWe enjoyed our tour to see the mountains and glaciers of Bariloche. Our guide was knowledgeable and spoke in English and Spanish to accommodate the whole group. My husband and I had plenty of time to take pictures and take in the views. Definitely recommend this tour.Written January 2, 2025
- robbyr6130 contributionsThe show was great.Good meal, great show. Service was rushed and impersonal. Shuttle bus from hotels was surprisingly long; we went in circles.Written January 1, 2025
- Bailey0502000 contributionsDisappointed by expensive tourAbsolutely boring tour with no music or behind the scenes or set displays. Building is old and needs updating and is moldy.Written December 29, 2024
- animagill0 contributionsA great night outA fantastic show.. world class tango and great food. Staff were amazing ( apart from unfriendly girl on the door) unlimited good wine… loved itWritten December 26, 2024
- christinay9440 contributionsUnexpected highlight of our trip!An unexpected highlight of our trip! Beautiful warm cozy theater. Attentive service. Free flowing wine. Great food. Spirited performers. Well organized. Highlight of our trip! And we are quite discriminating travelers. Very reasonably pricedWritten December 25, 2024
- Culture184756087250 contributionsBad experienceMy steak was fine but my wife's was just a large lump of fat, totally inedible. We complained to the waiter but he simply smiled and walked away. The show was mediocre with too many bright flashing lights. At the end of the show they claimed that their dollar machine was not working and that we would have to pay in pesos. By the time this got sorted out the shared mini bus that was due to take us back to our hotel had left. We were left in a gloomy uninviting area to find our own way back.Written December 22, 2024
- Lura J0 contributionsDinner and tango show historic Buenas Aires.Excellent Tango performance. Located in the historic district of Buenas Aries. Picked up from Our hotel, arrived at the location, and greeted kindly. Dinner and wait service were excellent. The culinary experience was amazing, excellent steaks and empanadas. The talent for the tango show surpassed all expectations 10 stars! This event was amazing and a must when visiting Buenas Aires and learning about their culture.Written December 21, 2024
- Roger L0 contributionsGreat tourGreat tour undertaken with some die hard Boca supporters. Our guide whose name I didn’t get (although may have been Louisa) was very informative and was able to translate into English for us non Spanish speakers. This is somewhere I have always wanted to visit and was not disappointed - can only imagine what it’s like on match day though!Written December 16, 2024

I first came here 2 years ago and was blown away so with another trip to BA, I knew where to come for a show but would it measure up to my memories of my first?Yes - and then some!
Starting with door to door transport, a perfectly fine 3 course dinner with wine, a pleasant and attentive staff and then another outstanding 90’ performance by amazing artists topped off by Argentine singing legend, Hugo Marcel. Drinks are also included at the show.
All in, it was $125 USD and you can go without the dinner if desired for less. The whole evening encompasses nearly 4 hours.
Yes, there are no shortage of places to see tango in BA but in my experience, the one that’s been around for over 50 years has yet to disappoint. Based on the enthusiastic full house, they’re doing something right.

This was a really good evening. Dinner followed by Tango show and Peruvian band.
Dinner was very average. What you would expect at these events followed by the show.
The location and theatre were interesting and based bear La Boca.
However there are multiple shows around Buenos Aires that all state to be the best. So you do need to look at what is included. Would definitely recommend one that picks you up at hotel and takes you back after show. This is what we did. Do expect to pay a lot for these shows.

We are glad to know that you enjoyed the show. The highlight in this show is that you have Tango and also Folklore, undoubtedly an essential part of the culture of some countries in Latinoamerica.
We are happy that you have been able to enjoy this experience.
It will be a pleasure to assist you on your next visit!
