Duration: 3h
Languages: English, Spanish
Guru: Olivia
Registered on December 24, 2023

Hey! My name is Olivia, I was born and raised in the breath-taking city of Buenos Aires, and I am an economics student with a profound passion for history. I offer you the full Argentinian experience, in the culinary, musical and social aspect. My youthfulness provides me with the knowledge of all the secrets of the nightlife, the trendy places to meet other backpackers, the mouth-watering restaurants and the social customs that will enable you to blend with the local people. If you are interested in the political and economic situation of my homeland, I am more than happy to share my insight while drinking “mate” together. Having been a backpacker myself, I believe I can meet the needs and wishes of fellow travelers.

Tour description

This tour is the perfect mix of history , entertainment , gastronomy and architecture . I offer a tour that is rich in knowledge as well as landscapes, ideal for those who want to capture and share the Argentine beauty on their social networks, as well as for those who seek to learn and become familiar with Argentine culture . During the visit I will make recommendations for other tourist spaces and unmissable experiences during your stay in Buenos Aires. I can teach them how to prepare mate , share local music playlists, recommend bars and clubs and give tips on customs. I assure you that there will be no shortage of laughter and fun.

If you are solo travelers tired of only having photos of the landscape or selfies that fail to capture the immensity of the panorama, or if you are accompanied travelers who take turns taking photos and want to have photographic memories together , I offer you a solution! For those who request it (with their due consent), I offer a photography service at no additional cost so that the experience is captured on camera. During the tour I can take photos with my camera and then upload them to a link/drive, where they can access and download their images. I consider photography an art and a vehicle to preserve memories .

  1. National Congress : home of the country's legislative body and protagonist of various marches and public demonstrations.
  2. Notable Bars: Confitería Molino, Los 36 Billares, Plaza Asturias

    I have red hair, which is easy to identify with. I will be at the doors of the National Congress (Av. Entre Ríos approximately height 51). In case there are fences or obstacles to access, I will be in front of the Monuments of the Two Congresses on the Plaza de Congreso, located on Solis 100. If there is any massive demonstration that makes the Plaza Congreso area impossible, I will contact you to change the meeting point.

Olivia es una chica con mucho conocimiento de su ciudad y nos transmitió todo lo que sabía con mucho entusiasmo. Fue un tour muy bonito y entretenido, se preocupó de llevarnos a lugares lindos, enseñarnos todo al paso. Nos preguntó al inicio acerca de cuáles temas nos interesaba escuchar, así ella podía enfocarse en ellos. Un 10 Oli!
