DAY 1 | ARRIVAL IN BUENOS AIRES 

The Paris of South America Upon arrival at Buenos Aires International Airport, you will be welcomed by our team and comfortably transferred to your selected hotel.

We will explore its unique contrasts: from the oldest neighborhoods to the most modern and elegant corners. We will tour San Telmo, with its bohemian air and cobblestone streets; La Boca, the cradle of tango and a colorful symbol of Italian immigration; and the distinguished Recoleta, where we will visit its famous cemetery, a gem of funerary architecture. We will also discover the dynamism of Puerto Madero, the modernity of Retiro, the imposing beauty of the Teatro Colón—one of the five most important opera houses in the world—and major urban landmarks such as Plaza de Mayo, Avenida de Mayo, and the National Congress. Throughout the tour, the streets of Buenos Aires will reveal stories of immigrants, tango passions, and legends of an era when Argentina was among the world's great powers. Accommodation for 2 nights.

DAY 2 | BUENOS AIRES 

Gaucho Tradition & Passion for Tango After breakfast at the hotel, we begin an unforgettable journey into the heart of rural Argentine traditions with a full-day excursion to Estancia Santa Susana. Located in the heart of the Pampas, this typical ranch opens its doors for us to live a true Gaucho experience. Here, time seems to stand still: the calm of the countryside, the fresh air, and the vastness of the plains transport us to another era. You will learn closely about the history and legacy of the gauchos, true icons of Argentine culture, admired for their horsemanship skills and free spirit. During the visit, you can explore the ranch facilities, enjoy folk shows, and marvel at an exhibition of equestrian skills. Lunch will be a true Creole feast: Argentine asado (barbecue) served with local wines, live music, and traditional dances celebrating the region's identity. At night, the magic continues with a dinner show at the emblematic Porteño Tango House. Experience the thrill of tango at its finest: professional dance couples, live music, and an atmosphere charged with passion reflecting the porteño soul. While enjoying an exquisite traditional Argentine dinner (beverages included), you will witness an unforgettable show.
