Buenos Aires Your Way: A Personalized 4-Hour Exploration

You might trace layers of history at Casa Rosada and the nearby cathedral or step off the square into Pasaje Roverano, where quiet crafts and barber chairs still echo the past. Sketch a detail, chat with a vendor, or simply observe. Your host follows your pace.

The Energy You Choose

Shift south to San Telmo or head into Microcentro’s daily pulse

Craving motion? You might stroll Calle Florida, catching glimpses of tango and stories in movement before ducking into a quiet café. Or head into San Telmo’s cobbles, where puppets hang beside murals and a band might be tuning up by the curb. It’s all about what calls to you in the moment.

Quiet Depth or Creative Sparks

Slow the pace—go beneath the city or meet its makers

Some guests opt for El Zanjón’s tunnels, where buried aqueducts and candlelit corridors ignite the imagination. Or your host might suggest a nearby detail, a faded mural, a quiet doorway, that invites a slower kind of attention. This stop unfolds through what draws you in.

Light Fare or Light Breeze

Ease into a soft finish with a snack or a scenic bench

You might grab a casual bite at a neighborhood favorite or follow the breeze toward Puerto Madero’s quiet edge. Whether you close with conversation or silence, your host helps the moment land gently.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

How much walking is involved?

This depends on the experience, but your host can adjust the pace to suit your comfort level.
