Tango Show
We expected a 2 hour show. It was only a little over an hour. We ordered a cheese plate which took long. The staff tried to charge us for silverware!! When the show ended we were rushed to finish and leave although we still had wine and food to finish. The show was pretty good, just very short.

Great night but
Found the experience fantastic. Great show. Huge 3 course meal included with Argentinian local dishes but plenty of choices available. Transport was provided but WAS NOT on the classic bus. This was disappointing as we chose this tour for the classic bus. Would have been 5/5 if we had the advertised bus.
via Viator
Dancing and music: 100/10, service and food: 2/10
The dancing and music were amazing. The service and food? Horrible. The cast deserves mega props on their talent and dedication to their craft. The food was average at best, the wine was no bueno and we saw our waiter twice (once to take our order and once to drop off a tip wallet) and he was quite rude. Please go if you value the entertainment and beautiful dancing. If you want a good meal, go somewhere else.

Great night out in Buenos Aires
Fabulous night from start to finish! The retro bus was great, bang on time at our hotel. Good meal at Aljibe including a bottle of wine between 2. Apéritifs extra. Very enjoyable show. Overall would recommend.

Touristic Tango Show
We booked the transfer, dinner, & show. The show included the term “folklore” so I was expecting some historical background and explanation during the show about tango, the bolos, musical instruments, etc. but there was none. The meal was good, but I cannot say it was gourmet. The waiters are frequently talking during the show and running back and forth in front of the audience during the show. They spend a good amount of time in the way explaining that the tip is not included, and to put it in the folder that is placed on your table. There was not as much tango as I would have liked although the dancers were good. It appears that many dancers & musicians have been with the show for a very long time. In all, I left disappointed and would prefer to go to a less touristic venue and performance.

Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in Buenos Aires: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in Buenos Aires cost?
+
Prices start at $48 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 Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in Buenos Aires take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in Buenos Aires worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 33 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 Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in 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 Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in Buenos Aires suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in Buenos Aires?
+
Around 12 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tango Dinner-Show at El Aljibe in 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.

Not included: Dinner (if you haven´t chosen this option); Gratuities; and Hotel pick up and drop off (if you haven´t chosen this option).
