    Different way of life

    An excursion away from the crowded city center at the tiger delta. A glimpse of a different way of life. Beautiful scenery and houses. According to the guide you should avoid it during the weekends.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your rating and review!

    Deliciously interesting tour!

    First, Elisabet was always quick to respond to all of my emails prior to our arrival. She helped us plan our 2 days in BA. This tour was on our second day using her tour company. We had to disembark our cruise early in the morning yet our flight back home wasn’t until 10pm. Elisabet met us at the port and kept our luggage in the van all day. We had done a city tour the day before so we wanted to see something different on our second day. The Delta is extremely interesting and different! Elisabet shared her knowledge of different parts of the city than we had seen the previous day as we traveled to the Delta then once we arrived and were on the boat tour, she continued giving us even more history and stories than the guides on the boat. She brought us to a restaurant for a delicious lunch in a beautiful setting. All around a perfect way to spend a day before leaving for home. I would highly recommend Iconic Buenos Aires with Elisabet and/or Barbara.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the feedback! It was our pleasure to provide you with the tours in Buenos Aires! Both Bárbara and I hope to meet you again :) Elisabet

    Unique experience

    After having done a Buenos Aires city tour with Barbara of Iconic Buenos Aires we did not know what to expect the next day on our Delta Excursion with her mother, Elizabet. Well it was another great day! The Delta region is unlike anything we had seen before; accessible only by boat and consisting of numerous small islands with unique homes on each. We had lunch at a terrific restaurant on one of these islands. As our cruise was over the tour ended with the driver delivering us to the airport. A very enjoyable way to end our vacation! Our thanks to Elizabet and her daughter Barbara - you should definitely consider Iconic Buenos Aires if you are travelling to Argentina.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for choosing us for your private tours in Buenos Aires! It was our pleasure to show you and Sheila our beautiful city :) Elisabet and Bárbara

    Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.

    How much does Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires cost?

    +

    Prices start at $360 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 Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires?

    +

    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 Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires?

    +

    Around 1 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires 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.

    What is included in Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires?

    +

    Included: In-vehicle air conditioning; and private guide. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 107 listed pickup locations in and around Buenos Aires. Be ready about 2 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires?

    +

    Is Delta Excursion with Private Guide by Iconic Buenos Aires wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
