Simon was a spectacular tour guide! He taught us so much history about the area and answered all our random questions. Would do this tour again and again if we could!

Simon was fantastic! We went on a tour with Simon and found her highly informative, personable, and professional. His demeanor impressed us enough that we hired him for 3 whole days for private tours. He couldn't have been more helpful and flexible. Because of Simon, we were able to avoid lines, crowds, get in fast, save precious time, and visit all the places that were on our list. In addition, he took us to sites off the beaten path while ensuring our safety and security. We couldn't have been more happier with the great service he provided us over the three days! We HIGHLY recommend Simon!!

Simon gave a fascinating story about the city, the fascinating characters who play Ed a pivotal part in Argentina history. The train ride to the north was enjoyable to the Cemetery and the oldest tree in Argentina. Thank you Simon for making it so fun for us
