2012 Travel Dates
From the moment I stepped into the excellent accommodation the experience began. Each day was planned in a way that it had its own ‘singular identity’ … a perfect day on its own. From cycling around La Boca to late night performance dance, from tango halls to dining experiences at private restaurants where entry was by a knock at the front door to Palermo for shopping…it was action packed, vibrant and exciting. Mike interpreted all the way so language was never a problem and we prided ourselves on making the most of every experience and moment.”

A note on the itineraries: The tours are designed for up to no more than 10 guests – those who want to explore/shop/museum hop/cafe lounge for part of the day will have ample opportunity with incisive walking maps and general guidance being offered. As well, there’ll be daily ‘mini’ activity tours with Mike Howie, a fluent Spanish speaker. The essence of these trips are to make them well organised but flexible and to give travellers a real Argentine experience away from spruikers and tired tourist traps.
