Best guide we could have had

The private day trip in Buenos Aires was a christmas present to my mother … and turned out to be perfect, thanks to Paola. She made it a memorable day … she was punctual, very knowledgeable with excellent English and pointed out all the highlights Buenos Aires has to offer, without the feeling of being rushed. I can only warmly recommend Paola if you want to spend a great day, like visiting a friend and getting an insider experience. Thank you so much Paola :-)

Paola D.

Thank you!!! It was a lovely day for me too. A big hug for both! Love Paola

Custimized Tour of Buenos Aires

I selected Paola as our tour guide for a visit to Buenos Aires in December 2022. Prior to our visit I communicated many times with Paola to customize our tour to focus on our areas of interest. Throughout this process she demonstrated a knowledge of the local area and Argentina. She made many suggestions which provided to be extremely helpful in getting the most of our few days in the city. Paola was truly amazing as she shared a great deal of history, local culture and current events as she navigated the crowded streets of Buenos Aires. We visited some of the key sites around the city as well as truly hidden gems. When it came time for lunch, she suggested an amazing local restaurant that was an epicurean delight and yet very reasonably priced. I would never have found this place on my own! Ours was a private tour for just my husband and me. Paola was extremely accommodating of our needs and interests. We didn’t waste precious tour time on areas we had a limited interest and yet we covered a good amount of territory along a varied path through the regions of Buenos Aires. It’s hard to say enough good things about Paola as a tour guide for Buenos Aires. Her private, customized tour was exactly what I had imagined. Her cordial and warm manner was certainly a plus. Her ability to navigate the crowed streets with seeming ease took all the stress out of our day long tour. And not being Spanish speakers we really appreciated her fluency in English. I highly recommend Paola as your tour guide in Buenos Aires.
