Asado Adventure (5h)

The idea is to participate in creating a typical weekend family Asado (local bbq) that Argentina is famous for, but for foreign visitors to Buenos Aires. Your local guide will take your group (semi- private, no larger than 10 people) to the butcher shop, the bakery, and the wine store, all the while walking the cobblestone streets of Palermo Viejo, just like a local family would do. During your walk you'll also learn about the beautiful murals that line the streets and the local artists who create them. You then go back to a large private home (not a restaurant) and help prepare the Asado. It is a first-hand experience of learning how to prep the meat, create the salad, build the fire with charcoal and wood, and all the while learning about the neighborhood (guests might want to jot down the different shops visited for some shopping later). Finally, you'll enjoy a typical Argentine Asado lunch complete with wine, cheese and finish with dessert and yerba mate.

The tour is an experience where guests can learn about Asado customs, and learn more information about the city in a very relaxed atmosphere. And you would be eating a fantastic Asado guided by the very capable hands of a master parrillero (local grill master). The tour will run from 10:30 am to about 3:30 pm approximately.
