Overview

Discover the charm of one of the most fascinating neighborhoods in Buenos Aires: Recoleta. On this tour, I will take you to explore its most sophisticated corners, where history, art and architecture intertwine to tell the story of a city that aspired to be a world cultural power in the early twentieth century.

You will tour impressive palaces, European-style mansions and monuments that have witnessed the splendor of Buenos Aires. Throughout the tour, I will reveal the secrets of the most influential families of the time, who left their mark on these majestic buildings.

We will also learn about the work of the French landscape architect Carlos Thays, who transformed an arid city into an urban garden and left a priceless green legacy. His vision made Buenos Aires a city full of parks and green spaces, which today beautify and enliven its historic streets and avenues.

This tour is not only a journey through the past, but a unique experience to discover the cultural and architectural evolution of the city.
