Good to know
Eternautas offers some of the most varied guided walks in Buenos Aires, with a strong focus on history, architecture and culture. The company trades as Eternautas de Goliardos S.R.L., is a registered travel agency, and has its office on Avenida Presidente Julio A. Roca in the city centre. Its catalogue lists more than two dozen private tours, which makes it a good choice for visitors who want to go deeper than a standard city tour.
The programme covers the classic districts, with walks in San Telmo, La Boca, Recoleta and its cemetery, Palermo Viejo, Palermo Chico, Puerto Madero, Belgrano and along Avenida Alvear. Others take on themes: Arquitectura de Buenos Aires and La París de Sudamérica explore the city's buildings and its Parisian ambitions, Buenos Aires Judía looks at the Jewish community, Arte en Buenos Aires focuses on art, and El Otro Sur heads into the less-visited south. There are also walks in Abasto, Parque Patricios, Balvanera and Caballito, where the Caballito and Parque Chacabuco tour looks at the English-style quarter and buildings decorated with medieval-style bestiaries.
Tour lengths vary from two-hour walks to a four-hour city tour and an eight-hour Experiencia Buenos Aires. Further afield, a five-hour trip covers San Isidro and Tigre, and a nine-hour day in the pampas visits San Antonio de Areco. A four-hour dinner and tango show is also on the list for an evening out.
Most tours are private, so you can choose your date and adapt the pace, which suits families, couples and small groups. Some walks also run on scheduled dates; for example, the Avenida de Mayo walk, along what the company calls the city's first boulevard, was scheduled on Saturday afternoons in October 2026, meeting at the corner of Reconquista and Rivadavia. The website is in Spanish, with an English version, so check which languages are available when you enquire.
Eternautas suits travellers interested in history and architecture, and repeat visitors who want to explore new neighbourhoods. It also organises longer trips abroad, but its Buenos Aires walks are the reason to book here. Contact the company by phone or WhatsApp on +54 11 4173 1078, or on +54 11 5031 9916.
