A great tour - We did the tour with Angelo and it was an unforgettable experience. We were only two people, which made it totally personalized. Angelo has an in-depth knowledge of the neighborhood and a unique charisma: it was great fun to see how everyone greeted him, and even we tourists received smiles and greetings. We stopped at a bar and, thanks to it, we discovered not only the most traditional, but also the true essence of the neighborhood. An authentic experience.

A must do in Buenos Aires! - Our guide Natalia showed us La Boca, the most beautiful and iconic neighborhood in Buenos Aires. This place isn't just about a football stadium and colorful houses, it's steeped in history, and through it, you can understand the development of Buenos Aires as a city. You absolutely must take this tour if you visit La Boca.

Nice walking tour with Natalia! - Nice walking tour with Natalia! La Boca isn't just a district of Buenos Aires, it's a charming place that embodies the true local spirit. With its bohemian vibe and impressive stadium, La Boca pleasantly surprised us. This tour was the perfect way to explore La Boca, as our guide, Natalia, shared stories with us while we strolled through its streets. I highly recommend this tour!

Boring - We spent almost all of the tour walking through vacant streets without much happening. Then it ended with the last five minutes in the lively part of La Boca that I wanted to see. Disappointing. Our guide was friendly and very nice.

Guide is a no show and other horrible things about trip advisor and Viator - Our guide didn't show up and never contacted us that he couldn't come. We had a lot of trouble trying to contact the tour company in Buenos Aries. Their numbers were disconnected. Finally we contacted Viator. They said that he was busy and would we want to join the group the next day. We had already made our way there and decided to just walk around ourselves. It was in the sketchy area of La Boca and we were uncomfortable. After going through poor neighborhoods we finally saw the colored houses. We're still trying to get our money back from Viator. We're done with this company after we had a horrible trip with them to Iguazu Falls. The falls were great. The schedule of planning was horrible including booking us on an unreliable airline with a 10 hour flight delay until 2:18 a.m. Wrote to the company and they didn't care. We bought tickets on another flight. No refund. We're done with Trip Advisor. We had too many bad experiences.
