South of the City Walking Tour

Description

Join us on a full-day walking tour to explore the highlights of southern Buenos Aires, including the colorful old immigrant

port of La Boca, the cute and trendy San Telmo, and the political epicenter of Buenos Aires: Plaza de Mayo.

You’ll visit iconic landmarks such as the Cathedral of Buenos Aires, Casa Rosada (Presidential Palace), colonial city hall Cabildo, the Block of Lights, and St. Ignatius Church (BA’s oldest). We’ll also explore Dorrego Square, the San Telmo Market, Defensa Street, Minimal House, Caminito street, the old port, immigrant tenements, and the Boca Juniors Stadium.


Learn about the Spanish colonial origins of Buenos Aires and the independence of Argentina, the immigrant era, and how it shaped the modern-day porteño. Try artisanal dulce de leche and sample local street food. Discover the works of Benito Quinquela Martín, explore the history of Tango, and learn about Lunfardo slang, Argentines and football, and the intersection of art and politics through Mafalda, Mothers of May Square, and the vibrant street art scene.
