    The tour is a swift 50 minutes.
    Some floors are not air conditioned.
    Ours was in English and was 10 people, although can be as large as 30.

    The decor is astounding. But what is even better is hearing about the social conventions: a widow could not be seen there for the first two years of her widowhood.

    Interesting, fairly trendy district of Buenos Aires. Some nice cafés, bars and restaurants. Easily walkable from the centre but regular hop-on hop-off tour buses also stop here.

    An absolute gem in Buenos Aires and South America as a whole. Amazing restaurants, fantastic Air Bnb’s, everywhere you look the apartment lobbies are super clean and tasteful with an overall very safe family environment. Big supermarket (Coto) and several nice gelato / alfajor cafes (Lucciano’s and Rapanui).

    A European city architecture but with South American hospitality and flair.

    For most good restaurants (El Burladero and La Roux) make sure you reserve about a day in advance. But be aware this is probably one of the more upscale and expensive areas for eating out and staying - totally worth it though. For alternatives also check out Palermo.

    An interesting stop in Buenos Aires and worth a visit.

    We arrived first thing in the morning and would recommend as it did get quite busy in the middle of the day.

    They only accept card for payment.

    Set in an interesting modern building with escalators to the 2 upper floors. A sizable collection of art, much of it unfamiliar to me but with useful details, in English, beside each exhibit. Quite a few video exhibits, not very appealing to me; some looked a bit like Minecraft! But then what do I know? Seniors get in half price and it was worth the 90mins we spent there.

    Such a beautiful park right in city. I found this by accident. Because it’s winter now everything was cut down.you can already see them all growing for the spring. The maintenance workers were working their magic and everything is growing and just as beautiful. The park also has a night light show I saw advertised

    Caminito is a short 130m long alley with colourful houses in La Boca neighborhood, where the Matanza river joins the Rio de La Plata. Traditionally this an immigrant quarter, where Italians from Genoa settled. Rather neglected, but since 1950 revived by local painters and artists.

    Caminito is now a tourist highlight and on the itinerary of many tour companies. Despite that, it is interesting to visit and observe the creativity of local people who with scarce resources built atonishing almost theatrical stages.
