Best Tours & activities in Buenos Aires (2026)

A guided tour is a good way to make sense of a city as large as Buenos Aires. For food, Parrilla Tour leads English-language walks through Palermo, San Telmo and Recoleta, stopping at parrillas, empanada shops and ice cream parlours, and runs a Sunday trip to the Mataderos fair. Graffitimundo has worked with local street artists since 2009 and runs tours of the murals of Colegiales, Palermo Hollywood, Chacarita and La Boca.

For history and architecture, Eternautas offers more than two dozen private walks, from San Telmo and Recoleta Cemetery to the Jewish history of the city, as well as day trips to Tigre and San Antonio de Areco. La Bicicleta Naranja runs daily guided bike tours of the north and south of the city, a riverside ride and a full-day trip to the Tigre delta, and also rents bikes. On a budget, Buenos Aires Free Tour runs tip-based walks every day from fixed meeting points, including next to the Teatro Colón and at Caminito. Book food and private tours ahead, and wear comfortable shoes for walking tours.
