We had a terrific all-day tour of Buenos Aires, customized to our interests, with the intelligent, well-informed, patient, not to mention easy on the eyes guide for ICO, Barbara. She has been guiding for many years herself, but works as a team with her mother Elizabet, who coordinated organization of our preferences and wishes (including our request for an upscale excellent lunch in an air-conditioned venue ). Communication was timely and excellent from the beginning to the end. Barbara used a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle with a separate driver, so she could dedicate herself to conversing with us without distractions in between shuttles to the different venues we wanted to focus on. This was our first time in this fascinating city, and we greatly enjoyed our tour. We very strongly recommend ICO for Buenos Aires tours.

Elisabet was great, knowledgeable, and accommodating. There were very few questions we could throw at her that would stump her. She knew about buildings, trees, and now knows how to get a certificate of domicile if anyone needs one! Would highly recommend.

We had a fabulous 1/2 day tour of Buenos Aires with Elisabet. She was professional, friendly, very knowledgeable and flexible. It was great to hear about the history and culture of BA. The driver was also great. We felt that we had a good overview of the city in our short time there. Highly recommended!

We toured with Barbara, but Elisabet is the one who helped me organize everything. Overall, it was wonderful communication and very easy to arrange. Everything was prompt and Elisabet responded exceedingly quickly to any questions or concerns. We had a wonderful tour and saw all of the highlights of the city. Barbara was a lovely guide with a lot of information, everything was flexible and we saw all of the highlights without a rush or concern. I would certainly strongly recommend using Elisabet and Barbara for your trip to Buenos Aires.

My wife and I had the pleasure of not only doing a Full Day City Tour with Iconic Buenos Aires, but a Gaucho Tour and Delta of Tigre tour. Elisabet, Claudia and Barbara were all so very amazing. The tours were very well planned out, but also allotted time for us to do some shopping along the way. In addition, the meal locations selected were excellent. Great information and conversation during all of the tours. Would highly recommend Iconic Buenos Aires for all your tour needs in and around Buenos Aires. We even arranged our airport transfers through them, which were very convenient and smooth.

Elisabet and Barbara are amazing. She provided customized city tours and airport transfers during our brief 2 day stay in Buenos Aires, on our way to Patagonia and then back again. Excellent English. Extremely responsive and easy to work with. Fun and energetic! Wonderful experience with this mother/daughter team!!

Elisabet is the perfect guide to the beauties and treasures of Buenos Aires and its environs. Before our arrival, Elisabet made great recommendations about sites and activities and helped shape our 10-day visit to the city. From the moment of arrival, she facilitated transportation, currency exchange, and a magisterial tour of the various neighborhoods, explaining its history, geography, arts, and architecture. Elisabet organized a wonderful wine tasting expedition to the Gamboa vineyards. She also introduced us to the tranquility and joys of island exploration in the Tigre Delta. She is friendly, knowledgeable, and anticipates every possible need. She made our first visit to Argentina magical. You will not find a better guide to the wonders of this glorious city.

This was an excellent tour Barbara was great Highly recommend Very informative, personal and pleasant Buenos Aires was great Timely and relaxing

We hired Elizabet to give us an introductory tour of Buenos Aires. She has a great knowledge for the city ranging from history to culture for every bario! It was the perfect introduction and she continued to give us guidance through the remainder of the trip. It was the perfect start to our vacation. We highly recommend her.

We learned so much about the river and the islands, the boat tour was great, Elisabet was so kind, she even took videos and photos for us, she took us to a great restaurant on one of the islands

There were a few favorite aspects of the tour: 1) I enjoyed the private tour with customized service and attention to detail 2) I enjoyed the in-depth conversations, answers to my many questions and the knowledge that I gained from a knowledgeable and professional guide. 3) I enjoyed Barbara’s genuine, friendly, and helpful nature. My recommendation to future travelers is book your tour with Iconic Buenos Aires

We were lucky enough to have been introduced to Elisabet and Barbara online and feel so fortunate that we did! We were in Buenos Aires for 2 days prior to departing on a cruise and were looking for city tour options. My exchanges with Elisabet were nothing but professional and helpful. She gave us multiple options in how to construct our time and tour. The exchanges were so pleasant and well organized that not only did we confirm our full day tour prior to the cruise, we decided to book a half day tour (including airport drop off) for our return day! On the day of the full city tour, Barbara and our driver met us at our hotel and from there we had nothing but an amazing day with her. She has so much knowledge of the city and clearly explains the history and important facets such as the political environment, economy, social issues, etc. We had a great lunch of empanadas (though she gave us options) and it was a great chance to learn more about her and her own background. The second tour (our half day after the cruise) was equally impressive. While the first tour, at least in my opinion, was focused more on the historical context of the city (government buildings, important historical markers, etc. which was wonderful), the second day showed us a greater introduction to the local neighborhoods and "off the beaten path" places that we would not have gone otherwise (highly recommend Palermo Soho - it will be at the top of our list to visit when we return). All in all, we cannot say enough great things about Barbara and our time with her. We would recommend both she and Elisabet to anyone spending time in Buenos Aires!!!

We toured (my partner and me) with Barbara .mainly walking through the highlights of Buenos Aires. Barbara was very nice ,knowledglable ,able to answer all our questions ,showing us the nicest parts of Buenos Aires,we could not find a better guide. I would highly recommend her . Thank you Barbara

We embarked on a cruise to Antarctica late December that began in Buenos Aires with a charter flight to Ushuaia and would end back in Buenos Aires. We decided to spend additional days in Buenos Aires after the cruise and looked for recommendations for private tours. We actually heard about this Mother/Daughter team through another site that is dedicated to cruise discussions. The recommendation for Iconic Buenos Aires came from a past guest on the same cruise. We contacted Elisabet through their website and she quickly came back with recommendations for us. We decided to book the full day city tour. This was absolutely the best decision for an amazing introduction to this city. The tour was conducted in a comfortable van with lots of leg room and Elisabet commentated as we drove. There was a very nice balance of driving and stops where we walked around different neighbourhoods. The tour exceeded our expectations and we visited places and learned history that we would not have otherwise been aware of. Elisabet knows of little hidden gems that you would walk by and never experience. This is the value of a private tour like this and someone so knowledgeable of their city and country. Elisabet has also arranged a dinner and Tango show two days from now for us and we will come back with a review of this too! We loved this tour and this was a day well spent. Thank you Elisabet! We highly recommend this Mother / Daughter team!

Exploring Buenos Aires with Elisabet was amazing! We booked a full day tour and loved every minute of it. We saw all the "must see" places, with in depth commentary from Elisabet, which was delightful. What I hadn't expected was the extra places she took us, based on our interests. We had a marvelous lunch at Buenos Aires Grill while watching the World Cup. When I mentioned I'd like to purchase a very nice leather bag, she took me to a shop where I found exactly what I'd hope for. Later in the day we went into a lovely antique shop, where I found darling penguin bar pitchers. I wanted to purchase books in Spanish for my 4 year old granddaughter, so she took us to the most remarkable and beautiful bookstore I've ever seen. It was once a theater and is quite beautiful. Every aspect of our day was perfect. I was amazed how our driver was just around the corner every where we went. Though we enjoyed our time exploring Buenos Aires on our own, the time with Elisabet far surpassed anything we might have seen without her. I can't recommend Iconic Buenos Aires highly enough. Should I be fortunate enough to return to Buenos Aires, I will certainly contact Elisabet again.
