    Great dinner, and absolutely amazing show!

    The tango show is the best. It seems like it's the most expensive tango show in Buenos Aires. But I think it's worth every penny. The music, the dancers, the orchestra - everything was absolutely top notch! We watched other tango show later, which was also very good. But the Rojo Tango is distinctive. We completely have forgotten about the time, even about included alcohol :))) - we were just engulphed by the experience. Highly recommend to everybody who is into dancing. But even my husband - who is not into dancing at all - was extremely impressed, and enjoyed the show very much. The dinner was also great. The food was delicious and plentiful, the wine seemed to be high quality. All the experience is unforgettable. Probably the best thing I experienced in Buenos Aires. The pick up and drop-off is well organized, and very nice option to have. Makes the evening so much more relaxing. Oh! And don't worry about dress code too much. We kind of got scared reading the comments about the dress code. As my husband didn't pack a sport coat or anything like this with him. We contacted the venue about 30 minutes before pick up with the question about the dress code, they responded right away, and assured us that we should not worry about it. He was just wearing slacks and nice shirt. People were dressed in a very different manner there, and everybody felt happy and comfortable.

    Very good Food, very good Tango

    I enjoyed my evening very much. The food was quite good, especially the dessert. The show afterwards was good. The dancers were excellent, but the show was not quite as exciting as others I've seen. Smoky night club atmosphere is lots of fun.

    A wonderful dinner and an amazing show

    We chose to have dinner in the El Mercado, the hotel restaurant, rather than in the dance hall based on other reviews I had read about the food and service and I am very glad we did. We were able to choose from the entire restaurant menu rather than a fixed one. The food and service were excellent. Because we had chosen this package, we were then given VIP seating in the dance hall so we had the best view of the dancers and musicians. The show was riveting. They preformed tangos from various periods in time in the appropriate costumes, giving us a visual history of the dance. Our favorite was a beautiful modern interpretation of a tango performed by two of the dancers. Hotel pickup and drop off was prompt and professional. It was a fabulous evening and we highly recommend it.

    Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket cost?

    +

    Prices start at $420 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 Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket 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 Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 43 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Buenos Aires, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket 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 Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket?

    +

    Around 2 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 Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket 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 Skip the Line: Dinner at El Mercado and Rojo Tango Show Ticket?
