About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- mariannechicago0 contributionsFantastic Buenos Aires Private Guide!Elisabeth is fantastic! She planned 2 days of touring and adventure starting with our hotel pickup. Everything went seamlessly. She is organized, communicative and responsive, which is much appreciated when you are in a foreign country. Not only is Elisabeth incredibly knowledgeable, but she is lovely to spend the day with. We highly recommend her. Thank you and we hope to see you again!Written January 12, 2025
- relaxed530 contributionsOutstanding all-day, customized tour of Buenos AiresWe 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.Written December 12, 2024
- J8133POmarks0 contributionsVery knowledgeable and accommodatingElisabet 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.Written September 23, 2024
- cocolafl0 contributionsExcellent Itinerary in Buenos Aires looking forward to ReturningTrip February 2024 It has taken us a while to write about our experience but we want to express our gratitude to Ms Elisabet Jeckel. Thank you Ms. Elisabet for everything you did to make our trip so great. We have planned several trips before with different travel agents and I want to say that she did not disappoint us. It was a very pleasant experience and it has been a pleasure to interact with her. From the beginning she inquired about our plans and helped us a lot to refine the itinerary for the trip. From offering us transfers between Argentine airports, money exchange, reservations to restaurants with excellent service and quality in their meals, reservations for an excellent tango show and the excursion to the Tigre River. And many thanks also to Dario, our driver and companion during our journey. Excellent person, very kind, respectful and cordial. I would definitely not hesitate to use their services again on another trip to Buenos Aires. I recommend it one hundred percent.Written April 24, 2024
- travbud10 contributionsExcellent tour!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.Written March 2, 2024
- Wavestalker0 contributionsSuperb City TourMy 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.Written February 21, 2024
- JoyceT2220 contributionsExcellent team!!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!!Written January 2, 2024
- remlesotla0 contributionsA Perfect Guide to the Glorious Wonders of Buenos AiresElisabet 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.Written November 16, 2023
- davidfuentess0 contributionsPrivate Tour Buenos AiresWe were on transit in Buenos Aires. I contacted Iconic BA and Elisabet was very helpful organising a city tour of BA for us. We visited the must places in BA. Elisabet was very professional and shared huge number of insights with us including on Argentinian politics and economics. I highly recommend Iconic and will certainly be out tour agency when next in Buenos Aires. muito obrigado.Written September 11, 2023

- Scot B0 contributionsAmazing trip to Buenos AiresWe 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.Written July 11, 2023
- michdoherty0 contributionsAmazingWe 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 islandsWritten June 2, 2023
- 704dominika0 contributionsBuenos Aires Day Trip!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 AiresWritten March 22, 2023
- Donna W0 contributionsOur very interesting day in Buenos Aires with Barbara.We used Iconic Tours for our full day tour of Buenos Aires at the suggestion of a well-traveled friend. We were not disappointed. The logistics of the trip (pick-up, drop-off etc) we’re perfectly timed. But Barbara’s knowledge of the City and her ability to convey it in interesting ways was excellent. Barbara also took time to show us her favorite attractions (that we’d have otherwise missed) and explained why they were special to her. All in, we had a very interesting, very special day in BA thanks to Barbara’s professionalism and attentiveness. Will use her again.Written March 20, 2023
- SHYGUY19790 contributions2 Amazing Days in Buenos AiresWe 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!!!Written February 28, 2023

Elizabeth was everything we wanted for our half day private tour. Knowledgable, friendly and impeccably well organised and prepared. The private driver and she worked flawlessly together and she accommodated all our requests without ever making us feel rushed. She took the time to take us off the tourist trail and show us some hidden gems. We loved every minute!

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!
