As first timers in Buenos Aires we chose to do the private city tour to get an overview and hit the highlights - so that we would know better how to spend our time over the next few days. What a great decision it turned out to be!
The booking was arranged effortlessly on WhatsApp. Howard turned up on schedule at our hotel and proceeded to provide the most comprehensive, informative, entertaining and relevant introduction to the city that we could have hoped for. We covered a lot of ground, were lavished with loads of information - yet it never felt at all rushed. Along the way Howard offered many insights and personal tips and observations that we simply wouldn't have gotten on any other tour. We got to understand the layout of the city, see many highlights and also learned a lot about life in Buenos Aires and Argentina generally. All the way Howard was subtly sensitive to our interests and accommodated our requirements with grace and kindness.
We had done some research on the city beforehand and so for us the tour was a wonderful way to orientate ourselves and put perspective on what we had read. But this tour would work equally well for someone who has no knowledge of all about BA. Really, if you're a first-timer, do yourself a favour and book this tour! (And if you're not, try one of the more in-depth tours offered on specific topics/areas.)
Undoubtedly one of the best experiences we had all holiday.
