See the city with a private guide!
We did a food tour and a 1/2 day city tour on our first two days in Argentina. Fabian was our guide and he was amazing! He shared about history, current politics, food, and even music. He and my husband were music buffs and they enjoyed talking about favorite bands when we had a few minutes of down time when we were walking. He brought the city to life for us! The food in the tour was more than enough for our evening meal.
Response from the operator: Both Fabian and I are so pleased that you enjoyed the tours with us! Thank you for your great review!

Fantastic Buenos Aires Private Guide!
Elisabeth is fantastic! She planned 2 days of touring and adventure starting with our hotel pickup. Everything went seamlessly. She is organized, communicative and responsive, which is much appreciated when you are in a foreign country. Not only is Elisabeth incredibly knowledgeable, but she is lovely to spend the day with. We highly recommend her. Thank you and we hope to see you again!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for such a fantastic review Marianne! It was my pleasure to spend the day with you too. Thank you for choosing me as your guide to visit the most iconic places in Buenos Aires! All the best!

Excellent Itinerary in Buenos Aires looking forward to Returning
Trip February 2024 It has taken us a while to write about our experience but we want to express our gratitude to Ms Elisabet Jeckel. Thank you Ms. Elisabet for everything you did to make our trip so great. We have planned several trips before with different travel agents and I want to say that she did not disappoint us. It was a very pleasant experience and it has been a pleasure to interact with her. From the beginning she inquired about our plans and helped us a lot to refine the itinerary for the trip. From offering us transfers between Argentine airports, money exchange, reservations to restaurants with excellent service and quality in their meals, reservations for an excellent tango show and the excursion to the Tigre River. And many thanks also to Dario, our driver and companion during our journey. Excellent person, very kind, respectful and cordial. I would definitely not hesitate to use their services again on another trip to Buenos Aires. I recommend it one hundred percent.
Response from the operator: I really feel very pleased that you have enjoyed your experience with Iconic Buenos Aires! It was a pleasure to be your guide in Buenos Aires. Thank you for your detailed review!

Our very interesting day in Buenos Aires with Barbara.
We used Iconic Tours for our full day tour of Buenos Aires at the suggestion of a well-traveled friend. We were not disappointed. The logistics of the trip (pick-up, drop-off etc) we’re perfectly timed. But Barbara’s knowledge of the City and her ability to convey it in interesting ways was excellent. Barbara also took time to show us her favorite attractions (that we’d have otherwise missed) and explained why they were special to her. All in, we had a very interesting, very special day in BA thanks to Barbara’s professionalism and attentiveness. Will use her again.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review Donna! We want to provide our customers with unique experiences and share our passion for the city. Thank you for using Iconic Buenos Aires!

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires by Iconic Buenos Aires.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires by Iconic Buenos Aires. cost?
+
Prices start at $270 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 Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires 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 Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires by Iconic Buenos Aires. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 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 Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires 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 Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires 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 Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires by Iconic Buenos Aires.?
+
Around 5 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 Private Custom Tour of Buenos Aires 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.
