Waste of time
This was a true waste of time. Literally spent more time at a junky shopping area of town. We did not see more than 2 miles of the city, I would have been better off to pay a cab to take me somewhere!

BA Highlights
We were picked up promptly and thoroughly enjoyed a great introduction to Buenos Aires. It was the ‘Premium’ version of the tour with stops at Ricoletta Cemetary, Metropolitan Church (the current pope served there),Floralis Generica, the obelisk & square, Caminito & the Plaza de Mayo. We drove through numerous neighborhoods and received interesting & informative commentary from our guide as well as recommendations for places to visit, walk on our own or get something to eat. BA has so much to see and do we could not hope to cover it all but this hit the highlights. I would recommend this tour without reservation.

Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups cost?
+
Prices start at $125 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 Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups 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 Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 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 Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups?
+
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 Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups?
+
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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Shore Excursion: Buenos Aires PREMIUM City Tour for small groups 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.
