  • Buenos Aires 04 8 Days / 7 Nights
    Buenos Aires 04 8 Days / 7 Nights Day 01 - Buenos Aires Reception at the airport and private transportation service to the chosen hotel with bilingual guide. In the afternoon, we will enjoy the “Tango Tour: Tango as a Porteño Cultural Symbol” excursion in a private service with a bilingual guide expert in Tango History. We will start our visit to the suburb of old Buenos Aires, where the city bordered the countryside. We will continue to La Boca, harbor area neighborhood of working class people, where most of the Genoese immigrants settled down at the end of 19th century. There, we will visit one of its typical “conventillos”, tenement houses where numerous families lived; they had different origins but the same reality: Poverty. Tango was growing, from slums to downtown; first, thanks to traditional theater; then, thanks to the birth of radio. Thus, tango started to enjoy a tremendous popularity, until it disembarked in Corrientes Street, site of the main musical shows, named “the street that never sleeps” due to its frantic activity. Since then, tango is considered the “porteño” cultural symbol par excellence. After walking round Corrientes Street, we will visit the Palais de Glace, an elegant hall where high-class people started to dance tango; thanks to them Tango reached Europe. The definitive internationalization of tango took place when Carlos Gardel, the greatest tango singer ever, took it to the big screen of Hollywood. Finally, we will visit Abasto, birthplace of Carlos Gardel. Formerly a slum, then one of the “rebellious” neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, today it seems to resist the efforts that have been done (the construction of Abasto Shopping and the setting up of international hotels in the area) to integrate it 1 to the mainstream tourist circuit.

  • Gay Buenos Aires Guide
    Gay Buenos Aires – the best gay hotels, bars, clubs & more Buenos Aires is one of the most popular destinations to visit in Latin American. This European-esque city with Latin flavor has plenty to offer from its mix of architectures, local wines, unique dance styles, and fascinating cultural history that’s visibly changing and progressing every year. It certainly stands out from other cities in the region. LGBT rights in Argentina are quite evolved compared to the rest of the continent and Buenos Aires is a leader in Latin American. It was the second country of the Americas to allow same-sex marriage after Canada. Furthermore, transgender rights in the country are some of the best worldwide allowing citizens to change their gender identities without common barriers like surgery or therapies. General ps From April to June, which is fall in Buenos Aires, and from September to December, which is spring, are the best months to visit. The temperatures are mild, and the crowds are smaller, plus accommodation prices are more affordable. It’s advisable to avoid going in January and February (because it’s the peak summer tourist time) and also avoid June to August if you don’t enjoy the rain and cooler temperatures. To experience some of the gorgeous architectural history and decor of the city, stop by El Ateneo Grand Splendid, a former theater that was converted into a remarkable bookstore, to explore and appreciate the beauty. Transportaon & Airport Transfer The city center is about 30 kilometers from the airport in Buenos Aires. There are three main options for travelers arriving to EZE airport who need to get to their destination.

    YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® The Wilderness Beyond: Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego & the Chilean Fjords 2022 Small Groups: 20-25 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 22) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. The Wilderness Beyond: Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego & the Chilean Fjords itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: As I set foot on the ice fields of the Perito Moreno Glacier in Los Glaciares National Park, I stood humbled by the pristine beauty of this 200-foot natural wonder and closed my eyes to listen. A thunderous noise in the distance broke the silence of this peaceful place as smaller icebergs broke off from the glacier—a process known as “calving.” While I’ll never forget the natural splendors that I witnessed in Patagonia, it was the Chilean and Argentinian people who left the biggest impression. You’ll have a chance to meet them, too, when you join a local family for a home-cooked meal and an evening of good conversation at their home in Buenos Aires. You’ll also hear the dramatic personal experience of someone who lived through the “Dirty War,” a dark chapter of Argentinian history from 1973 to 1985 during which thousands of Argentinians disappeared or were killed during the country’s last dictatorship, when you meet a local resident at a cafe in Buenos Aires.
