    Flexible itinerary, great conversation

    "Really enjoyed our tour with Rosana. She was not only knowledgeable about the area, but also gave us a good perspective on the Argentinean culture. She met us where we stayed and customized the tour to meet our needs. On top of that, she was an interesting person to talk to, and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a private tour. "

    Fantastic experience

    "We had a wonderful day with Rosanna. She was extremely accommodating both with my dietary restrictions (lactose intolerance as well as no red meat or fish) in addition to our time constraints. She first took us around Recoleta including the cemetery. We learned a lot, and the time went quickly! We then reconvened with her later in the day for a food tour. The spots she chose to take us to were exceptional and every bite was memorable. We were stuffed by the end! In total, we had sandwiches and coffee, pizza, empanadas, a steak sandwich, and ice cream! Rosanna is a lovely person and easy to talk to. "

    A wonderful time in Buenos Aires!!

    "We had an wonderful time with Ines! She is very friendly, and we also felt that she is a family member too. She is an expert in Argentina history, she knows a lot of about Buenos Aires too. She told us about the day by day of porteños, and it was amazing. The highlight of our tour, was at Plaza the Mayo. She told us about the mothers of plaza the mayo, and we all felt very emotional at this moment. We highly recommend!!! Tivemos uma manhã maravilhosa com a Ines. Ela é muito querida e muito amigável, nós sentimos como se ela fosse da nossa família! Ela é especialista em história da Argentina e também na história de Buenos Aires. E ela nos contou sobre o dia a dia dos portenhos. O ponto alto do nosso tour foi qundo estavamos sentados na Praça de Maio, e ela nos falou sobre as mães da Praça de Maio, todos nós ficamos realmente emocionados com seu relato. Suuuper recomendamos o tour com a Ines!!!"
