Very good tours and guides
We took 2 different tours with lunfarda travel, the boca/ san telmo and the reoleta/ recito tours. Both were well done and very informative. The reason for not giving 5 stars is that there were stops listed that we didn’t go to. We expected a food stop or two on the boca trip- there was none. In fact I purchased water for the guide despite the info stating that water was to be provided. On the recoleta tour we didn’t go by the metal flower as described in the info and while the stories of rich people getting revenge on each other was fun, the amount of walking to get to that point was a lot. It was really a cemetery tour plus a drawn out walk. Would we do other tours with Lunfarda? Yes probably. Just be aware that you don’t always get everything promised.
Response from the operator: Hi! Thank you so much for your kind review - and for your invaluable feedback as we launch this new line of shared tours. Our descriptions were not updated, and these shared version of the tours don't include the culinary stops - but thanks to your comment I see that they were still in the description and have been removed to avoid further confusion for other guests. Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. If you ever want to tour again with us, let us know so we can provide a compensation for this with a private mate tasting in our office with some alfajores! :)

3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Buenos Aires usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Buenos Aires is not rushed.
Is 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Buenos Aires, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Buenos Aires can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Buenos Aires and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 hours Private La Boca Street Art Walking Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Buenos Aires within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Buenos Aires?
+
On Outty we rank every Buenos Aires experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Argentine Cooking, Wine & Beef Tasting at Argentine Experience, Historical Sherpa Food Tour of San Telmo with Street Food, Drinks, Cooking Class with Empanadas Steak & Flan by Argentine Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Buenos Aires?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Buenos Aires?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+
