Essential Free Tour 3 in one: Obelisk, Plaza de Mayo and Puerto Madero. Where history, politics, and modernity come together A tour that will surprise you

 We’ll meet at the corner of Roque Sáenz Peña 1150. First, we’ll take the famous “BA” photo at the viewpoint of the iconic Obelisk of Buenos Aires. I’ll share some interesting facts about that famous corner and tell you the story of its controversial construction. Next, we’ll head to the beautiful and ancient La Ideal café to continue our walk along Galería Guemes, where Saint-Exupéry, the famous author of *The Little Prince*, once stayed. You'll stroll down the famous Florida Street, the historic shopping street from Argentina's Belle Époque. On our way to Plaza de Mayo, we’ll stop at the luxurious entrance of the old Bank of Boston, whose massive double doors have an electric pulley system that has been in operation since the day of its inauguration  Already in Plaza de Mayo we{ll admire the Cabildo, the Cathedral, the beautiful Banco Nacion (former Teatro Colon) and of course the Casa Rosada. We’ll talk about the country’s history—how it went from being a world power to an economy in constant crisis. We’ll discuss important events in Argentine history that took place in this square such as Evita´s appearance in the famous balcony.

The glamour of Puerto Madero awaits us. We’ll enter this vibrant and seductive neighborhood, with its famous Woma’s Bridge, its great restaurants and bars, the dock with its sailboats.

This is the ideal location to end the tour. You’ll have a great variety of bars and restaurants,  I can recommend places to eat in Puerto Madero, so you can stay and enjoy the sunset and watch as the port lights
