A private taxi tour of Buenos Aires with a live Spanish-speaking guide lets you customize which neighborhoods and landmarks you visit and how long you spend at each stop.

You choose a morning departure at 9 a.m., an afternoon start at 2 p.m., or a shorter two-hour option, and can add side trips to Tigre, Luján or Ezeiza airport pickup if you want them.

The experience

The tour moves through Buenos Aires by car, stopping at landmarks you pick instead of following a locked schedule. You'll see the pink Casa Rosada and the Catedral Metropolitana in the historic center, pass the Palace of Congress and the grand avenues of Mayo, Callao and Corrientes, then photograph yourself at the Obelisk in Republic Square. The guide speaks Spanish and rides with you, so you can ask about what you're passing and adjust the route on the fly.

From there the day branches into what interests you. Recoleta Cemetery holds the tombs of prominent Argentine politicians and cultural figures. Palermo's Bosques de Palermo contains the largest Japanese-style garden outside Japan. Chinatown sits in the city's easternmost neighborhood, lined with shops and restaurants serving different Asian cuisines. Both River Plate Stadium and Boca Juniors' Alberto J. Armando Stadium offer museums if football matters to you. Puerto Madero, the modern waterfront district, recreates the mouth neighborhood as it stood in 1900 with tango flavor. You decide which stops fit your interests and how much time each one gets.

The vehicle is air-conditioned and seats small groups comfortably: ideal for four people, though other group sizes are possible. You can book a four-hour morning tour starting at 9 a.m., a four-hour afternoon departure at 2 p.m., or a two-hour light option if you have less time. Airport pickup or drop-off at Ezeiza is available, and extensions to nearby towns like Tigre or Luján can be arranged. Museum entry tickets and meals are separate, so budget for those if you want to go inside any of the sites.

Top questions

Can I visit both football stadiums on the same tour?

Yes. River Plate Stadium and Boca Juniors' Alberto J. Armando Stadium are both stops you can include, and each has a museum if you want to go inside. Whether you visit both, one, or neither is your choice: the guide adjusts the route to fit what you want to see.

What's in Recoleta Cemetery that makes it worth a stop?

Recoleta Cemetery holds the tombs and monuments of prominent figures in Argentine politics and culture. It's one of the city's most visited landmarks and a chance to see the architecture and history of the people who shaped the country.

Is the guide included, and what language do they speak?

A live guide in Spanish is included with the tour. They ride in the vehicle with you, so you can ask questions about the neighborhoods and landmarks as you pass them.

How long does the tour take, and can I choose a shorter option?

You can book a four-hour tour in the morning (starting at 9 a.m.) or afternoon (starting at 2 p.m.), or a two-hour light option if you have less time. The four-hour tours give you enough time to visit multiple neighborhoods. The two-hour tour covers fewer stops.

Can I add a trip to Tigre or Luján, or arrange airport pickup?

Yes. Extensions to nearby towns like Tigre or Luján can be arranged as add-ons, and pickup or drop-off at Ezeiza airport is available if you need it.

What's included in the price, and what costs extra?

The tour includes the vehicle, the guide, and your choice of route and timing. Museum entry tickets, meals, and tips are not included, so budget separately if you want to go inside any of the stadiums, cemetery or other attractions.
