    Don’t do it!

    My tour guide was excellent. Very nice and friendly guy. The tour was not. Not much to see out there and the boat ride was dreadfully boring. Choose a different tour!

    A great ride

    The Tigre Delts was extremely interesting. Miles and miles of interesting sights. Our guide Howard was extremely knowledgeable and very very accommodating. It was a very relaxing day.

    Response from the operator: I am glad you enjoyed the tour with Howard. Kind Regards, Clara Boyle

    Howard was FANTASTIC

    We had a private tour booked months before our arrival. Unfortunately it was cancelled at the last minute upon our arrival. Thankfully we found this personalized tour. Couldn’t have been happier. While there were quite a few people on the boat, the ride was much longer than most. Plus Howard was always pointing out various points of interest. We learned so much about the area and history in our 4.5 hours with him. He’s a wealth of information and made it so much fun. Even navigated us through the local market. Thanks Howard!

    Response from the operator: I am glad you enjoyed the Delta tour with Howard, Sharon. Take care, Clara Boyle

    Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta cost?

    +

    Prices start at $218 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 Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 10 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 Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta?

    +

    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 Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta?

    +

    Around 4 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta 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 Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta?

    +

    Included: Professional guide; and Hotel/port pickup and drop-off. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 4 listed pickup locations in and around Buenos Aires. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Private Tour: Tour San Isidro and the Tigre Delta offered in?

    +
