The experience will depend on a seat
Bad seat will ruin the experience and it's a gamble! If you are solo visitor like me there is a big chance you will be seated at the back in the corner. Not only you will partially see the stage but waiters will be running back and forth in front of you. Which disturbs, I mean REALLY DISTURBS! At the same time there is a second floor completely empty from where it's actually a perfect view. But they don't let people in (I guess for the convince of the waiters). Few stars are for the excellent dancers and waiters are very friendly. But the establishment is about making the money. They didn't care about my experience.

The right tango show
That this show is the right event for anybody, we were mesmerized by this exquisite show. The person in charge of picking us up was on time and great personality .

great show, good food, but terrible VIP seating choice.
We visited El Viejo Almacén, and the food was very good, truly better than we expected. The show was fantastic—excellent choreography, great music, and an outstanding performance by Hugo Marcel. However, there was one very disappointing detail: we paid for VIP seats in the front row, and it turned out to be the worst spot. From there, you cannot appreciate the show properly, and they even seated us on one side, which made the overall view much worse. Had we known this, we would not have paid for VIP. The best seats, without a doubt, are upstairs, centered, where you can really enjoy the full performance. In short: great show, good food, but terrible VIP seating choice _________ Visitamos El Viejo Almacén y la comida estuvo muy buena, realmente superó nuestras expectativas. El show fue fantástico: una coreografía impecable, música excelente y la participación de Hugo Marcel, que fue verdaderamente extraordinaria. Sin embargo, hay un punto muy decepcionante: pagamos VIP para estar en la primera fila y terminó siendo el peor lugar. Desde ahí no se puede apreciar bien el espectáculo, y además nos sentaron en un costado, lo cual afecta mucho la vista general. Si lo hubiéramos sabido, no habríamos pagado VIP. El mejor lugar, sin duda, es arriba y en el centro, donde realmente se puede valorar toda la puesta en escena. En resumen: gran show, buena comida, pero pésima elección de asientos VIP. ⸻ .

Authentic Tango Show
Loved this Tango Show experience - high quality and authentic - highly recommend it for first time or repeat Buenos Aires visitors

Excellent show, even for Argentines!
We went 'full Monty': the pick-up service, dinner & show. Everything was timely and well-handled (we had 2 members using large walkers). The show was excellent! I'm Argentine and my friends were Americans. The Americans were delighted and I, who went with no expectations - typical Argentine - was amazed at the talent of the dancers and musicians, and the swift production with no glitches. Bravo! Viejo Almacen! You made me proud to be there.

Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner in Buenos Aires: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner in Buenos Aires cost?
+
Prices start at $49 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 Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner in Buenos Aires take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner in Buenos Aires worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 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 Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner 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 Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner in Buenos Aires suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Viejo Almacen Tango Show with Optional Dinner 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.
