• Retiro - This English neighborhood serves as the perfect introduction to the tour, boasting a rich football heritage.
• Plaza General San Martin - Situated in Retiro, Plaza San Martín is among the city’s oldest squares and has been the backdrop for numerous historic events. A pivotal battle occurred here during the second British invasion of Buenos Aires in 1807. In 1812, General San Martín selected this location for the barracks of his mounted grenadiers regiment, leading to the square being named Plaza San Martín in 1878 to commemorate the centenary of the independence hero’s birth. The square’s current design is largely credited to French landscaper Charles Thays, who designed many of Buenos Aires’ parks and squares. It features a variety of native and foreign trees, along with several significant monuments and sculptures.
• Estadio Alberto J. Armando (La Bombonera) - The Museo de la Pasión Boquense offers visitors an exceptional sporting experience. Admission to the museum includes a guided tour of the facilities, pitch, changing room, and warm-up area. During the tour, the guide shares the story of the iconic “bombonera” stadium, explaining its “chocolate box” nickname, its evolution over the years, and more anecdotes from the club.
• Caminito - Located in La Boca, Caminito (meaning “little path” in Spanish) is a street museum featuring vibrantly painted houses typical of the immigrant dwellings that defined this portside area in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Caminito traces the path of an old stream that once flowed into the Riachuelo and later became part of a railroad route. After the railroad’s closure, the street was largely neglected until the 1950s when a group of neighbors decided to revitalize the area, and local artist Benito Quinquela Martín began using the tenements as his canvas.

Today, the street museum includes several works by Argentine artists, making Caminito a popular destination for city visitors. Numerous restaurants offer tango and folk dance shows, and the street is filled with artists showcasing original crafts and paintings.
