• See the Signature Sights in Style
• Embark on an exploration of magnificent San Telmo and La Boca, two of Buenos Aires' most beloved neighborhoods. San Telmo is without question one of the trendiest quarters of the city thanks to its cool, bohemian atmosphere and famed antique shops. Plaza Dorrego is the place to be on Sundays to find anything from antiques, memorabilia, second-hand clothes to dusty magazines during its traditional Antiques Fair. Next, set out to experience La Boca, arguably one of the city's most authentic neighborhoods. La Boca's history was largely shaped by immigrants who established themselves within this gritty port-side barrio. A working-class district, La Boca has jealously guarded its identity, of which soccer and tango are major ingredients. What will strike you immediately is the peculiar architecture, especially along Caminito Street, which in 1959 was declared an outdoor museum. It is the work of one of Argentina’s most famous painters and neighborhood philanthropists, Quinquela Martín. He gathered neighbors to paint the houses, made out of tin and scrap metal, in bright colors, emulating the early immigrants. The most recognizable icon, though, is La Bombonera (the Chocolate Box), right in the heart of the area and home of the Boca Juniors, the country’s largest soccer club.

• Cultural Immersion
• A whirlwind of discovery awaits during a day at leisure in enchanting Buenos Aires. Argentina's dazzling capital invites you to explore its very best, boasting an unforgettable collection of museums, restaurants, historic monuments, and sprawling green spaces in each of its barrios. For art aficionados, a visit to the MALBA museum is a must, while the grand 19th-century Teatro Colon is sure to impress. Stroll down El Caminito in La Boca to see the famously vibrant houses, the perfect backdrop for a souvenir photo. Indulge your sweet tooth at the San Telmo Market, or discover local artisanal products during its weekend showcase, where you can immerse yourself in local culture amid cobblestone streets and contemporary art spaces. Book lovers should make a point to stop at El Ateneo Grand Splendid, a palatial cinema transformed into one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world. Take in a tango show or try your hand (and feet) at the famous Argentinian dance yourself with the help of a professional lesson. Unwind at the Plaza de Mayo, simply soaking in the scene and observing the towering white obelisk commemorating the country's independence from Spain. The city offers plenty of stunning botanic gardens ideal for an afternoon stroll or a serene respite during a day of non-stop adventure.
• Buenos Aires may well be the best place in the world to catch an exclusive tango show, and the nightly performance at Café de Los Angelitos may well be the best in the city. This evening, enjoy a special night out as you are picked up from your hotel by a private driver and a bilingual guide, setting out for Café de Los Angelitos. Take in an intimate tango performance led by local dancers, all while enjoying a gourmet dinner consisting of grilled local meats, international dishes and excellent Argentinian wines. A sensory experience capturing the essence of Buenos Aires tango and gastronomy - this will be a night to remember.

• Audacious Architecture
• Discover why Buenos Aires is known as the "Paris of South America" on a privately guided tour through the city’s finest landmarks. See the dazzling structures representing the city's Belle Epoque era, rich in tree-lined sidewalks, turn-of-the-century palaces and handsome apartment buildings featured prominently. The sprawling Plaza San Martín, an important part of today’s exploration for example, is surrounded by several masterpieces such as the Beaux Arts Palace, originally built as a residence for the Anchorena family, an imposing mansion, partially, inspired by the Louvre. Putting this into perspective, in Argentina the name Anchorena evokes the wealth and power similar to the likes of Rockefeller and Morgan in the United States, Krupp in Germany or Rothschild in France and England. Then there is the Kavanagh Building, a ground-breaking Art Deco skyscraper that was at the time of its inauguration, in 1936, the tallest skyscraper in Latin America. Still in the same area, the Museum of Decorative Arts was the former home to Argentine aristocracy, the Errazuriz-Alvear family, an elegant piece of architecture, surrounded by sumptuous gardens and encircled by detailed, wrought iron railings. The list of splendid edifices you can see also includes Circulo Militar, designed in Paris and built in Buenos Aires for the Paz family who owned the La Prensa newspaper, the French Embassy, owned by the Ortiz Basualdo family until 1939 and the Brazilian Embassy, owned by the Pereda family until 1944. Today's walk sheds plenty of light into how sublime architecture transformed Buenos Aires into the most European of Latin American cities.
