“An invaluable Introduction to the history and culture of Buenos Aires and Argentina ”
Nico provided exactly what we required as first time visitors to Buenos Aires. He explained the history of Argentina by explaining the migration patterns over the past centuries, and the cultures that helped define Argentina as it is today. It is one thing to experience architecture and the cuisine, but with the detailed explanation of the rich cultural history of Argentina, we now have a more complete understanding of this beautiful city. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting Buenos Aires, whether they are first time or repeat visitors.

After being a professional as an Accountant for some years, I decided to change my life and follow my passion: Buenos Aires. I've been a tour guide since 2011. I'm passionate about showing every corner of my city and passing on everything I know about it. I was also, for some years, guided touring professor at San Martín National University. I am studying a master's degree in world history, and I have a Diploma in Buenos Aires History and Argentinian Culture. I really love Buenos Aires and I hope you do so…. I love art, history and photos. . . I'd like to share all of this with you. I also have a car (Volkswagen Suran) so If you want we can move around in it. I'm flexible and all my tours can be customized according to your own interest.

I love to share all type of experiences with travelers in my hometown. We can visit the main spots if you are a first time visitor, or we can go off the beaten path whether you have some special interest. During the tour you will be inspired to ask me any type of question about Buenos Aires, and porteños (the way the local people are called), and my challenge will be to answer all of them in detail. You will learn a lot about the local culture, lifestyle, art, music, sports and food. My solid experience of 16 years in the industry, my academic background (degrees in Economics, Business, Tourism and Languages) and multiple travels around 15 countries are my best credentials. I'm also a polo player, coach and horse trainer. You can also book to take a polo lesson or watch a polo match, and experience the Sport of Kings in Buenos Aires, which is considered the polo capital of the world. It is impossible to get bored doing this profession as every day brings a new adventure. This job enabled me to meet people from over 100 countries. I am also a host of a travel show broadcasted on streaming, which helps me to stay updated. Last but not least I love not only horses but also dogs, enjoying very much to help animal shelters. My dog is called Charlotte and she is very cute :) Thank you for reading my bio, if you have any question or comment please contact me!
