Welcome to Buenos Aires! Also known as the "Paris of South America," the capital of Argentina is a city defined by passion—from its rich tango heritage to its citizens' limitless enthusiasm for fútbol (soccer), the country's most popular sport.

WHY GO

Buenos Aires is a pulsating, passionate, cosmopolitan city. The combination of rich architectural and cultural heritage, modern creative energy, electric nightlife, unique traditions, a vibrant arts scene, extensive parks, and warm, friendly hosts makes it one of the world’s most exciting capitals.

WHEN TO GO

March to May and September to November are the most pleasant times to explore. Most people find fall (March to May) and spring (September to November) are the most pleasant times to visit Buenos Aires. The weather is generally mild, with average temperatures around 22°C (72°F), and a mix of sunny and rainy days.

Things to do in Buenos Aires

Day 1

Visit the Obelisco, which might be the city’s most famous monument. This obelisk (which even Argentines admit is a little too reminiscent of the Washington Monument) is worth a visit for its location alone. It sits right in the middle of Avenida 9 de Julio, which boasts a whopping 16 lanes, making it one of the widest avenues in Latin America.

Stop by the Teatro Colón, one of South America’s premier opera houses, which is known worldwide for its incredible acoustics. Even if you plan to take a tour or catch a show here later, it’s still worth passing by to take in the exterior architecture. The Colon’s neoclassical façade has made it one of the most handsome buildings in Buenos Aires since its opening in 1908.
Stroll through Puerto Madero, an upscale waterfront neighborhood adjacent to downtown. Puerto Madero may be the “new money” finance center of Buenos Aires, but it’s also one of the most pleasant places to walk in the city. Take a romantic stroll by crossing over the canal on the Puente de la Mujer (“Woman’s Bridge”) at sunset.

Day 2

In three hour tour you can visit Retiro as well as Avenida 9 de Julio, one of South America’s widest avenue, where you’ll see the Teatro Colón and the Obelisco.

You can walk through the history city center, where you see the Congress Building, Plaza de Mayo, Avenida de Mayo, and the Casa Rosada (Argentina’s Presidential Palace). Then you can walk along Puerto Madero’s upscale waterfront before heading to San Telmo, the oldest neighborhood in the city. You can stop by Recoleta to see the cemetery and Plaza Francia before heading to La Boca, the city’s original port.

In the evening you can experience an unforgettable night of dinner and tango at one of the best tanguerias in Buenos Aires. It’s venues such as these that preserve the musical heritage of the city. You’ll feel it in the ambiance, you’ll hear it in the melancholy rhythms of the guitar and bandoneon, and you’ll see it in the dances of fish-netted and besuited bailanderos. It’s a dance that tells the story of loss and heartbreak, passion and love.

Day 3

There is already a lot to visit in Buenos Aires city after Day 1 and Day2. But do you have a few extra days available to spend in the capital? That might be the best time to visit Tigre Delta in Buenos Aires. You can even stay there for a few days and enjoy the peace and quiet and get acquainted with life outside the city.

Where is Tigre Delta located in Buenos Aires?

Tigre is an autonomous city west of the capital. Tigre is located at the height of the river delta of “Rio de la Plata”. A brown-gold river is a confluence of two rivers, Paraná and Uruguay. Both rivers have their origin in Brazil. Tigre is located 32 km / 20 miles from the capital. We take the Obelisco as a starting point.

The river delta is characterized by its winding watercourses over an immense area. Tigre is often compared to Venice because of the many small river branches.

How to travel to Tigre?

For the adventurous among us, you can take the train to Tigre. The train departs from Retiro station. A single ticket will cost you about 2 US dollars. The journey by train takes about one hour. Now don’t expect to travel through beautiful landscapes. The train runs through neighborhoods and unfortunately, you don’t have a view of the river.

You can also take a rental car. The road to Tigre is safe. You will pass two toll stations. Remember to definitely have cash with you. There is however a busy intersection of two highways meet.

As a third option, you can always take the bus. I recommend bus 60 then. This runs from Buenos Aires center to Tigre. The bus has several stops in Palermo and is close to 9 de julio. Count on a travel time of 2 hours. It’s quite an adventure!

Of course, you can always book a private transfer or take a taxi.

Staying overnight in Tigre: A great idea and very cozy. In Tigre Delta in Buenos Aires, you can find several houses (cabañas) that you can rent through Airbnb. The cottage is often just next to a canal and the only way to get there is by boat taxi. You also have some good restaurants on the many islands, with a good Argentine BBQ as the toppers.
