City tour - Guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the city. Bus tour all around the city gives a good view of the size of it. The churches on the Jesuit Block are beautiful.

Viator is contracting unprofessional and highly irresponsible people in Argentina. - The private tour of Cordoba was reserved well in advance through Viator, which in its turn went to Tangol and Tangol contracted Nativo Viajes to conduct the tour. The time was set for 2:30 pm. We were supposed to arrive to Cordoba at 11 am. While boarding the plane in Mendoza we received a message from Nativo informing us that they are ready to start the tour at 9:00 am. When we noticed that the tour is set for 2:30 and sent them confirmations from Viator they responded that this is Tangol’s mistake and they can’t help us. We asked all three agencies to find us a replacement guide since there were still over 4 hours left but nobody bothered with helping us.
