Cook empanadas and alfajores from scratch in a small Buenos Aires home class, enjoy mate, and leave with recipes for Argentine snacking.
“Just as promised, we made and ate empanadas and alfajores. All turned out very well! I hope to try making both once I am home.”
Cook in a Mendoza home kitchen with a bilingual host, make seven Argentine dishes, and toast with bottomless drinks and wine.
“Me and my husband had a wonderful night with David and Rosi. They were very welcoming and were so helpful They were willing to answer all of the questions about the different recipes. We all got to have a go at making the empanadas which was really fun. We also tasted some typical Argentinian aperitifs and sipped on wine whilst eating the food we created. It was a lovely , intimate and friendly atmosphere. Thank you David and Rosi.”
Small-group 4x4 tour from Puerto Madryn with dune thrills, sea lion viewing at Punta Loma, and beach coffee stops. Extra reserve fee.
“first, I was informed that the 8am schedule we previously reserved will be moved to 12 noon. There was a change in the schedule of the cruise line which we were not aware until later. I insisted that we should have the 8am because the ship was leaving @ 4pm. If they can't provide that we will cancel our reservation and demanded to be refunded. The providers pleaded to us that they be given the business. We wanted to work with them also but they have to provide us the 8am schedule. They finally did and instead of a 4-hr tour it only lasted 21/2 hrs. The 4x4 off road…”
A flexible 3-hour private tour of Buenos Aires highlights, with hotel pickup, your own pace, and a guide who explains what you see.
“I made a mistake and booked this tour for the wrong date. They called me the day of the tour and I explained I had made a mistake, asking if they could book us for the correct date. LuisEd said he would charge me an amount, which I understand because they reserved the van for us, and he would let me know what that amount would be. After that, no communication. I have texted them several times asking if we are still booked for the correct date, and no response, or acknowledgement of the first conversation. I am not even asking for a refund, just want to make sure we…”
A 3-hour small-group walk tracing Pope Francis in Buenos Aires, from his Flores childhood to Plaza de Mayo’s cathedral.
“If you are a Catholic and an admirer of our pope, I clearly recommend the tour as it takes you to the places where he was born, lived, studied and worked, giving you a better understanding of the rationale behind his acts and thoughts. Our guide, Pablo was very good in explaining all his "regular citizen" activities and life.”
Spend 3 hours in Estancia Bonanza near El Chaltén with grilled lamb, starters, curanto al hoyo, and a scenic trip over a suspension bridge.
“This was a great experience! We went to the meeting point at 7p in El Chalten. We were the only ones on the van out to Estancia Bonanza which seemed odd, but we realized later that most people do horseback riding or some other activity out there paired with the dinner. We took one van out of town a ways to the bridge, where we walked over and then got into another van to be taken to the ranch. We settled into the gorgeous dining space and within a few minutes the place filled up with other people staying there and finishing up other excursions. The food was great and…”
Private 3-hour Buenos Aires city tour by car with hotel pickup, English guide, and quick stops in San Telmo, Plaza de Mayo, La Boca, Puerto Madero, and Recoleta.
“This was a great way to get a quick glimpse into the city of Buenos Aires. Laurita was our guide and was super accommodating with what we wanted to see. Thank you for going out of the way so I could get my picture taken with Mafalda. Loved walking through the different neighborhoods and stopping for local eats. Great time was had by all.”
Sorted by what you would actually do with the day.
