City Guide Buenos Aires, Argentina

Lots to see and do

Massive city with so much to look at. San telmo is a really nice area, with a market on sundays. You'll find food, music and loads of gifts to take home. Its also nice just to sit around in the park if the weather is good. A Tango show is a must as you wont get a show as good anywhere else in Argentina.

Insider Tip:Combine steak-eating with a tango show at "boedo y San Juan". I'd love to go again!

Buenos Aires is amazing! Unfortunately we had not too much time to be there but there are so many places you have to go to and enjoy...

Insider Tip:you need coins to use the busses! it is not possible to pay with bills. (and if you ask the people nobody will have change ;))

Few Days in BA

I spent 5 days in BA and enjoyed it, I'd been traveling around South America for a month and half and mostly been in small towns, this has the big city feel so if you looking to get away from the hussel and bussel of big city life, I suggest it's not you. We knew someone who lived there so we kind of had a personal tour guide but without her getting around the city was a bit of a nightmare as our Spanish was average a best. Cemertry was very interest and stake was off the chain! Also went out in a n

Insider Tip:Have coins for the buses. They don't take notes.

Buenos Aires, more than just the centro

I lived in Buenos Aires for a year, and, if you want a unique experience, I recommend you get away from the center, The center if very nice to see some of the main tourist attractions and the great city architecture, but, it's very touristy! If you want an authentic experience, head to Abasto, the Palermo Parks, Once, etc. Just wonder around the city and take it in.

Insider Tip:Mostly everything you can do or see here is free and you can do it on your own, avoid paying for costly tours, which are pointless.

A City that makes memories!

So we are on a round the world trip and are trying to avoid staying in big cities to much because we can do it at home when ever we want to but BsAs is such a. Beautiful places its hard not to fall in love with it! The buildings around the city are stunning, there are massive parks, loads of different areas to see and visit, it's a slow pace so no need for early starts and if you like to party be prepared for 1am starts in the clubs!

Insider Tip:Go down the back streets and find the little coffee shops if you want some amazing food! And sleep in the evening for a couple of hours if you are going out! Also keep an eye on the taxis it's handy to learn how to say where your going in Spanish and ask the price so you get a 'Argentinian' price and not the tourist price - not always but watch out!
