Great in-depth tour with historical context - Nico was absolutely fantastic! He tailored his talk to the topics the group wanted to hear about, and thoughtfully answered all of our questions. My husband and I left feeling like we had a deep understanding of Argentina’s history, from political, economic, and social/cultural perspectives. It was a bit longer than shown on viator (3.5-4 hours) but we happily rescheduled our lunch plans to not leave early!

Great historical small group tour - Our guide, Nico, is a local anthropologist & offered an interesting and informative small group (only 3 of us) around San Telmo and surrounding area. It was easy to ask questions and he was happy to share his thoughts and experiences being a native of Buenos Aires.

Excellent walking tour of BAuenos Aires or curious people. - What a great tour. Iaun the tour guide was passionate about his country and Argentine history in general. He was great fun and actively engaged with everybody on the tour. I learned so much about Argentina and got to see some amazing places that you would never discover on your own. First class and I would highly recommend to anybody visiting Buenos Aires who is curious (or just wants to know more about Argentina).

Buenos Aires on foot - Nico is an excellent host. Local resident whose family has been here for at least three generations. Very adept in history, architecture and politics. His tour is unique and that he takes you places where most tours do not go, and his knowledge of the area is exemplary

Best Historical Tour of Buenos Aires - We cannot say enough nice things about Ignacio! He is a history professor & provides factual context that was fascinating. He communicates clearly pre-tour & during making sure everyone can hear & is comfortable. He planned a break for people to buy snacks $/or go to the bathroom. We highly recommend the tour you will get a fantastic overview!

Great Tour - for the curious to be sure. - We loved this tour. The guide was so sharp and engaging. The route was a nice track along the history of the city. The sites were really well explained. I felt like I received a AP class type tour versus a more mundane "general studies" refresher (which is a good thing). We learned so much - and appreciated the guide's willingness to field our questions/make suggestions for our time in BA.
