In a nutshell
You ask, you have! That's Buenos Aires!
122 Reviews I saw pictures of the colored houses in La Boca when I read the travel books, and so I took a taxi to that famed street of El Caminito. The taxi driver was very kind, but he looked very concerned that I was walking alone. He warned me to just stay where people were since there have been reports of...
157 Reviews This is a historical must see site, a burial ground featuring ostentatious tombs and including the final burial place of Eva Peron. It is well-known, so in my tip I would like to focus on photographing in the cemetery. This can be place with severe contrasts along the avenues of tombs, bright light...

33 Reviews In early November 2012 we visited this cafe with another American couple. One of us put his knapsack on the floor next to his foot, and five minutes later it was gone. The pickpockets and thieves in this town are smooth-- four of us at a table, near the back of the cafe, and none of us noticed the...
General tips about eating in Buenos Aires
42 Reviews The Grant's serves all kinds of meat in a variety of ways through a buffet. It was not the best restaurant I went to in Buenos Aires, but I was satisfied. I find it interesting that, of all the American Presidents to name a restaurant after, the owners selected one of the most mediocre Presidents in...
79 Reviews CAFE' DE LOS ANGELITOS: CENA & TANGO SHOW From Monday to Monday, this emblematic meeting place for outstanding national celebrities from culture, politics, sports and arts, is proud to open its doors to receive new visitors. With a series of 350 especially selected photographs placed on its...
14 Reviews A must-go night club! It is a converted mansion in the heart of Buenos Aires, which is chock full of Portenos and tourist. The structure is amazing, with the sweeping staircases and large waiting roms of a Southern mansion. The bathrooms can be hard to find and are small. Lots of tourist and locals....
To/From Airport - A/Desde Aeropuerto
30 Reviews I found very few information on how to get to Ezeiza airport and how to get back to the city center (Capital Federal). Going there by taxi would be the fastest and the most expensive option. However, if you are not a budget traveler and are ok with paying approximately 300 pesos or more, I still...
47 Reviews This needs to be updated: There are now 6 subway lines: A- generally running up and down Rivadavia B- generally running up and down Corrientes C- generally running up and down 9 de Julio D- generally running up and down Santa Fe E- generally running up and down Independencia H- half completed and...
Calle Florida (Florida street)
29 Reviews This is an advice to all travellers, whenever you are walking downtown, especially at Calle Florida, be very careful. If you're stopping out at Corrientes and Florida, at the front of Burger King, request the cab to leave you before arriving at that spot. There are "kids" opening the doors of the...
Galerías Pacífico Shopping Mall
27 Reviews Inside Galerias Pacifico you have the "Centro Cultural Borges" a cultural center. It's worth entering Galerias Pacifico to see the ceilings! Dentro de las Galerias Pacificos esta el Centro Cultural Borges. Vale la pena entrar a las Galerias para ver el techo!!
29 Reviews Everywhere you go in Buenos Aires there is someone performing Tango on the street. Crowds gather, the music play, the dancers put on their show in full dance regalia...... If you stop to watch; then stop and throw some coins...it's only polite.
Dog walkers = Paseadores de perros
18 Reviews More than anything else this is a status symbol. Those that can afford it pay a dog walker to take their dog out and exercise. The arrangement must vary because some of the dog walkers seem to spend most of the day with the dogs, dog sitting so to speak. You will see them in almost any park in...
7 Reviews I found traveling in Argentina was much easier because the cost of having laundry done is minimal, hence you can travel much lighter than you would in other places! a good windbreaker, there is a lot of wind, especially in Patagonia. a roll of toilet paper good sunscreen filters
2 Reviews I always forget to bring meds with me. I have been very very sick the first two times down here and have had trouble finding the meds I want, even with a local who is fluent in both Spanish and English to help me.
28 Reviews If you are in buenos aires, don't miss going to Tigre. Is an excursion of 4 hours (at least) and truly that is worth going! During weekends there is a fair in the port of fruits where they seld very nice and cheap handycrafts. A trip in a catamaran by the islands of the Tigre, it's a must! But try...
6 Reviews If you feel tired of the city and want to see a green space, then Los Bosques de Palermo is a good place. They are located 15 minutes away from downtown and they get packed with locals, mostly at the weekends, who go there to jog, cycle, rollerblade, play football or just sit on the grass and have a...
35 Reviews For all football 'nuts', if you're in Buenos Aires do not miss the opportunity to see a football game. The best and biggest team in town are River Plate whose "Cancha" which is the Porteño term for a stadium play at the 'El Monumental' in the Palermo district of the city. Whilst the football at...
7 Reviews Every year I organise a golf trip somewhere in the world. After much discussion we decided to go to Buenos Aires. Amazing courses, the best meat and friendly people. My suggestion: Olivos, Buenos Aires Golf, Martindale and San Andres. Our trip was organised by a local golf & travel company....

It's so difficult to describe the place where you live. Of course I can mention a list of places to visit, restaurants and must-sees, but still, you wouldn't get it. Every corner, every smell, every...
