- derekbP7895OP0 contributionsGreat service, car and priceEasy, professional communication over WhatsApp to assist with impacts of flight delays. Perfectly professional driver. Could not have been better!Written January 12, 2025
- patriciabV3023EW0 contributionsPerfect experience, I was blown away.This was a great experience overall and one of the best shows I’ve ever attended. The pick up and drop off was timely, smooth, and I ended up making friends with the other travelers. I absolutely loved the cozy and elegant venue, so much character and we got so close to stage. The food was good and bottomless wine made it even better. The show was simply phenomenal. I laughed and cried, everything was so beautiful and the dancers and musicians so talented, I didn’t want it to end. I will definitely recommend this show to anyone visiting the beautiful BA.Written January 12, 2025
- C4068WSjacq0 contributionsNot as describedI thought the tour was supposed to be in English and not in both Spanish and English. Very disappointing. The guide was pleasant but spoke too quickly and due to it being in two languages, I felt it was rushed plus he was difficult to understand.Written January 10, 2025
- Diego S0 contributionsSimple but satisfying tourWe did the tour of 3 hours in Buenos Aires, our guide Mariela was great, her English perfect, she has a lot of knowledge and answered any questions we had. She explains with a lot of detail. The tour takes you to the most Tourist places, let's call them like that. The tour takes you to San Telmo,Boca & Palermo , the 3 most notorious places in Buenos Aires Over all the tour is recommended, and hopefully you will do it with Mariela and enjoy it like we did.Written January 10, 2025
- steamfan0070 contributionsA very enjoyable day outWe were picked up at our hotel right on time by our tour guide Franco, and driven to the ferry terminal where we quickly joined our small group tour boat. We sailed across the River Plate to reach the delta area where our exploration of the Tigre Delta itself started. The Delta is made up of a number of islands created over many decades by sediments being carried downstream by the 5 rivers that feed the river Plate. The islands are now rich in green vegetation and trees. This has become a home-away-from-home destination for many Brazilians, Uruguayans and Argentinians who have built small houses on the islands. Houses range from small fishing shacks to large permanent homes. A beautiful area. After a couple of hours we reached the town of Tigre itself which is actually part of the Mainland attached to the islands. We had a tasty lunch at a hotel in Tigre, then continued the tour on our tour bus and were eventually dropped back at our hotel. Franco was an excellent guide, full of useful information on the area, its history, people and culture. This tour was a fascinating insight into a completely different kind of life style on a delta island, completely cut off from the mainland except by boat (though they do have electricity and TV services). Garbage collection is also by boat! A very enjoyable day out.Written January 10, 2025

- steamfan0070 contributionsExcellent tour and guide but beware of the ferry chaos!We were collected from our hotel on time and taken to the ferry terminal and that's where the chaos started. The Buquebus arrangements for checking passengers in, then getting them through Immigration (since we were going to Uruguay) is pure chaos; multiple lines with no-one knowing which was which. 2-hours spent on this process! The ferry ride itself was fine, just over 1 hour. We were met on arrival by our guide, Alejandra, who was excellent. We learned much about Uruguay the country as well as Colonia, and walked around the town learning about its history (be aware that many streets are cobblestoned which makes walking a challenge if you have any mobility issues). The tour did not include lunch but we had a couple of hours of free time to explore the town further or seek out one of the many restaurants. We chose El Charco, by the river, which was outstanding and really good value for money. Sadly the return ferry ride was just as chaotic as the outbound trip (another 2 hours!) so we were a couple of hours late getting back to our hotel. The tour itself was excellent, as was our guide, and deserves a 5-star review on its own but the ferry chaos takes (at least) one star off. Just want to warn you in advance!!Written January 9, 2025
- timothyc3970 contributionsAn Excellent Introduction to Buenos AiresAn excellent half day tour of the city, providing a good overview of its highlights, including historical buildings, marinas, and several neighborhoods. Included a boat tour of the waterfront, with audio tour, and a lunch of empanadas with a beverage. Hats off to Nicholas, our excellent and informative tour guide.Written January 9, 2025
- Noel780 contributionsBrilliant day on the pampas with a great guideSecond tour with Signature. I think they are missing a marketing opportunity. They should give discounts on people’s second and third tours as committed customers. This was a spectacular day as soon as we left the city and arrived in the pampas. Sabrina, our most informative guide, described what the day would entail. There was a brief visit to a silversmith museum in the little town of San Antonia. There were also gorgeous objects for sale for those with an extended budget. Then we proceeded to meet the gauchos on their handsome ranch located down a dirt road. They have overnight lodging there too. But day trippers on this tour are first welcomed with drinks (soft or hard) and delicious empanadas. Next, visitors went on a horseback ride or took a carriage tour or relaxed under the trees. A sumptuous lunch followed beginning with salads, bread and followed by more beef, sausage, and chicken dishes than one thought possible. Dessert was a delicious flan or a Neapolitan ice cream. Then, coffee. Entertainment includes the gaucho guitar/drum band, dancing demos and the crowd joined in an Argentinian line dance. Final event: a gaucho did “tricks” with his horse proving the amazing ability of the lovely animal to interact with the master. The ranch’s beauty was splendid, and I think everyone on the bus regretted our return to BA. It was a brilliant day. Kudos to Max the bus driver who ferried us safely to and fro.Written January 8, 2025
- Kerryn720 contributionsGorgeous place to visitLovely day trip to Tigre. The area of Tigre is very different to the hustle and bustle of Buenos Aires. It's a beautiful town and taking the boat to explore some of the delta was wonderful. Alejandro was a great guide, Daniel a great driver. The food you can pay extra for is empanadas....don't stress, there's food available to buy there too. One hr each way was spent doing the hotel puck up/drop offs. An hr ish on boat and some time to wander the markets.Written January 8, 2025
- OrlandoGator0 contributionsGreat Day TripHighly recommend a visit to Iguazu Falls. I’ve never seen anything like it. We only had time for one day at the falls. I booked this tour with Signature Tours and they took care of all the details. Early morning hotel pickup for airport transfer, round trip flight, private guide at the falls, and airport pickup for return to our hotel. It was a very long day but one I will never forget.Written January 8, 2025

- FarAway464930 contributionsGreat meal, great tourReally fun day. Very informative tour of a winery they've set up in suburban/exurban Buenos Aires, where they grow a sampling of the grapes they grow in Mendoza, where most of the wine is made. They also serve a really excellent meal and great wine pairings in a lovely setting. Plenty of wine to taste of several varieties and lots of options to buy.Written January 7, 2025
