Wonderful evening of tango - This show was outstanding, worth every penny! Very professional. The dancers are skilled. Loved the costumes. Three dancers with drums were unbelievably good. The food was great too. Wonderful evening.

Learn to Tango - Be adventurous. Take the Tango lesson prior to the dinner and show. Our instructors were patient and had us doing the basic Tango in no time. The food, wine and show were won’t. Tango Porteno is a must in Buenos Aires.

Must See Show! - My husband and I attended the Tango show with the optional lesson and had such a great time! The instructors were professional and dancers in the show. It was fun to learn some steps from them and then get to see their performances.
Dinner was 3 courses with wine with nice selections. Service was fast and attentive.
We are so glad we went because it really embodied the spirit of Buenos Aires and created a wonderful memory.

Great show - The show and dinner were perfect. Wish I could dance. The only problem was pickup. We had paid for transportation and it turns out that the venue was across the street from the hotel. When no one showed up we walked 5min

Tango in Buenos Aires - The show is beautifully done, and definitely worth going to if you like to watch dancing. The band was also great. They did a good job of mixing it up with both slow and fast dancing along with some great singing. We skipped the dinner and just went to the show and didn’t feel like we missed anything.

Great show but skip dinner - As said by many, the quality and content of the show was v good and entertaining even if it did stretch to nearly midnight. We booked through our hotel and it wasn't ultra expensive for show+dinner+transfer from hotel and back. Down sides 1. the dinner tables at front of theatre were jammed packed together with v little space between them or for getting out to toilet and were also v uncomfortable nor was view great as you were seated at an angle 2. The photo ops with dancers were a bit grabbing and charged at $20 each photo rising to around $25 if you used credit card 3. Food was v basic - soup ok, steak big and tasty but tough, veg a bit cold and nothing special and dessert was ok probably the best and 4. The inclusive alcohol was not v free flowing - had to try hard to get attention of waiting staff who were business like but not v friendly (however request for tips was v direct)!

Not spectacular - It was our first time attending a Tango show and it just wasn’t for us. It was okay but far from spectacular. It reminded me of Charlie Chaplin with the music. We opted for the pick up.service and they arrived almost 45 minutes early to pick us up. We raced to get to the hotel where we were quick to arrive.

Great dance, terrible place - Great dancers and musicians, terrible service otherwise. When booking the no-dinner option you are seated up on a balcony with a fence that takes up half the view of the stage. There was a fan blowing so hard everyone up there was freezing and the people working there were unhelpful and rude. It was not possible to buy anything but water up there. A shame with such great dancers and show, to have the circumstances ruin it.

VIP option is a SCAM! - VIP option is a SCAM! We paid $240 per person for dinner/show/transportation with guaranteed seating in the first 3 rows. They seated us in the 10th row where people sitting next to us paid $80 for the same program! We were overcharged by $160 per person!!!!
When I approached them for a refund, I got no support from Viator and no replies from the tour company.
Food/wine was as described and the show was nice. The theatre is a large place and you can literally save lots of money and book directly from Tango Porteno and just go for the show.
Based on the pricing scam, I won't be signing up with Viator any more and will cancel my future bookings.

No show and Dishonest - This was a no show. We waited at the hotel lobby for 40mins. Was unable to reach the tour operator. When we eventually managed to contact them, they claimed that the tour has been cancelled by Viator. We checked with Viator and it said that it had not been cancelled. All very frustrating! Our last evening in Buenos was ruined and we didn’t get to watch a Tango show!
