The second most-beautiful book shop in the world: an old theater that was converted into a book shop. A prominent British periodical named it second in its 2008 list of the World’s Ten Best Bookshops. Just stepping inside this former grand theater will take your breath away. Impressive buildings with a variety of architectural styles (including art nouveau).

A massive Victorian structure that many people stop and look at in wonder: A fantastic palace of more than 300,000 lustrous, multicolored tiles and glazed and enamel bricks. An incredible large shopping mall that used to be the city’s central wholesale fruit and vegetable market. The original art deco building & structure remain largely untouched. The area of Carlos Gardel – the most famous tango singer in history- : House facades and shops covered in “fileteado” artwork. A creative art, one-of-a-kind, full of vivid colored ornaments and symmetries that became a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The style of painting associated with Buenos Aires that has much to do with tango and that have been part of the culture of the Porteños (inhabitants of Buenos Aires) since the beginnings of the 20th century. . Also, expect to view creative street art and murals painted by local artists, a tango clothes and shoes store, for a most memorable experience. This tour includes uncommonly visited city landmarks that deviate from your typical tourist locations. Because we enter several buildings that we visit, you will get an extra personal experience of each place that most large walking tours won’t be able to offer. No visit to Buenos Aires would be complete without a visit to these fabulous places!

Carlos Gardel museum (closed on Tuesdays): We will visit the chorizo (sausage) style house where he lived. At the end of the tour your guide will hail a taxi for you. Since this is not a strenuous walk, it is a great idea to combine it with our Buenos Aires Off the Beaten Track walking Tour -Caballito Through the Ages
