Just been on an English language tour with Victoria and it was really great - she is very knowledgeable and friendly and gave some great insights on life in Argentina and the current situation

I find the best way to explore a new city is to do walking tours. BA free walks offer a variety of different tours covering all parts of the city. I did 4 and all were great. All guides (Mariano, Juan and Luke) were excellent. Highly recommend!!!

We did a free walking tour with Martin Wasserman on February 8th of the Recoleta area of Buenos Aires. Absolutely and outstanding guide - his information on the history of Argentina and BA is very comprehensive. He uses a speaker so everyone can hear him, I would strongly recommend this tour.

This is simply an excellent tour. Martin is a terrific, knowledgeable and passionate guide who takes you right inside BA history, politics, architecture and culture. This is definitely 5 stars plus, plus, plus! The tour lasts 2.5 hours and covers several km in the heat of the summer so come prepared (water and comfortable walking shoes are a must). Martin thinks of everything - including a portable amplification system so you can hear his fluent English commentary wherever to stand, and sun umbrellas for the guests!

Another outstanding experience with this company. Martin was knowledgable , articulate and in command of his subject which he delivered with energy, flair and personality. He ensured our large group stayed safe and comfortable too.
Can’t ask for more than to be informed and entertained. Thank you Martin

We did several of this company's tours while in Buenos Aires, including the City Center tour, the San Telmo tour, and the La Boca tour. The City Center guide, who I believe was named Victoria, was very good. I unfortunately forgot the name of our guide in San Telmo but he was excellent (we did that tour on Nov. 13, 2022 if that helps management figure out who he was!) and we really enjoyed walking through the neighborhood with him. In La Boca, Santiago was similarly fantastic. He told us he's an actor by profession and it showed in his storytelling skills and ability to engage the rather large group we formed that day (probably at least 40 people). All in all, great experiences with the tours offered by this company and would recommend them to others.

I did the Free Walking tour (afternoon City Center tour - from the National Congress Building to the Casa Rosada) on 13 June 2022. Javier, our guide was intelligent (doctorate in History), personable, good sense of humor and did a fantastic job at explaining the incredibly interesting history behind the many places we visited on our 2 1/2 hr. tour. English language tours are done every other day, Spanish language tours are daily.
Since I enjoyed my first Free Walking tour so much I decided to do another one the following morning 14 Jun 2022 (Recoleta Tour). We covered the area from the Teatro Colon to the Recoleta Cemetery (where Eva Peron is buried although we did NOT enter the cemetery, which requires an entrance fee). Ivan was our guide (and also excellent). He has a PhD is Art History and was able to not only show and explain the many beautiful buildings and architectural styles of the places we visited but to also give us insights into the treasures and factoids behind why the various mansions, churches, and monuments were built. When in Buenos Aires (or ANY city that offers Free Walking Tours), take advantage of this unique perspective from an educated native who is experienced and well-trained in guided tours. Their insights and knowledge of their city is invaluable. I look forward to doing more of these tours in other cities I may visit.

I know these tours are billed as free but tips are accepted. Does anyone have an idea of what is a fair tip if one really enjoys the tour?
I was told a 1000 pesos but that seems really mean for a three hour tour. (On the other hand the economy here is so bad that maybe that is reasonable?)

Hola. Una pregunta...en los Free tours, entran al teatro Colón y al cementerio de Recoleta?
MARISA H

En el q yo hice no . Creería q hay uno tematico del Cementerio de la recoleta . Con respecto al teatro colon , estoy casi segura q para conocerlo por dentro te cobran la entrada o La visita, yo la hice hace alrededor de 5 años ( llevando a unos parientes q viven en eeuu ) y era carísima !!! No se como estara ahora . Podes entrar a la página del Colon
Quizás hay un free walking tour x fuera del Teatro q te da data interesante . Espero haberte ayudado , saludos

É só estar no ponto de encontro no horário que está no site. Para o BA City Tour é 11h na Av. Rivadavia com a Rua Rodríguez Peña, no lado da praça. Os guias estão de camiseta verde. Bom passeio!

Our guide was located at the front gate of the congress building, not in the square, but actually standing in front of the gate. They wear a bright orange shirt. The actual address is Av. Entre Rios 51. The tour starts at 3PM. They have a web page buenosairesfreewalks. Hope this helps. One tour guide takes the Spanish speakers and Martin takes the English speakers.
