Beautiful show! - The show is very beautiful! A great spectacle! I went with my husband and son through the Baires Turismo agency, we stayed in the VIP area because of the baby, we paid R$1,100.00 and dinner and unlimited drinks were included. I recommend

An experience that shows the heart of tango - It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We got a tango lesson, appetizer, dinner, and dessert. We also were able to take pictures with the tango dancers and see an amazing show. Overall incredible.

Fantastic show! Inconsiderate late arrivals. - Arrived at 7:30, we ate our delicious meal. Then we sat until the show started LATE at 10:10. We were forced to wait without explanation for a group who arrived late.

Don’t miss this epic tango show it’s great musicians. - What a great dinner and show. Down a couple flights in this old, beautiful theater with four floors of box’s and the main floor lined with tables. Th VIP boxes are really special. The musicians are so talented that they are the show b themselves. The dancers are amazing entwining their legs, arms and bodies in dance of the tango. Great night of fun.

Wonderful experience! - The food was great, the service was great, the show was fantastic! We would highly recommend. The only thing is that when you are picked up at 7, fed at 8:15, the show doesn’t start until 10:00, it makes for a very long night.

Buy tickets from venue - Our best tip: buy your tickets directly. We purchased from a booking company online and then we're forced to wait about 20 minutes in the lobby because the venue did not have a record of our payment. When we were eventually seated, we had a nearly fully obstructed view . The music was nice, but we were not able to see the dancing.

Skip it. - The 30 minutes of tango we watched in this five hour experience was great but the total event is far too long and boring. It’s over priced at $139 pp. The food is mediocre. The company said they couldn’t pick us up, which is included, bc of a road closure but out Uber driver got us there fine. I think you can find a better tango experience in BA that isn’t such a tourist trap.

Biggest tourist trap in Buenos Aires, don’t waste your money! - This experience was absolutely awful. Transportation - I was told I would be picked up at 7, didn’t get picked up til 8 with very little communication. They were adamant to be ready by 7 or risk being left behind. I sat in the lobby waiting and waiting and waiting. Food - Outside of the starter (empanadas), everything else tasted bad. The “lasagna” was made using crêpes instead of pasta and the dessert was bland. My ice cream was already melting when it got to my table. Wine was of terrible quality. Service - left something to be desired Show - The show was decent but didn’t start until 10pm. I sat at my table for an hour and a half eating my terrible food. Unsure why we needed to arrive so early. Overall, this was not worth the money and I learned you can find other tango shows at local bars for a fraction of the price. I did this as a solo traveler and wouldn’t recommend for solo or group traveling. As a solo traveler, they sat me in the corner, alone. Unsure why they couldn’t sit all the solo travelers together. Again, don’t waste your money or your time! This was 4 hours of my vacation I didn’t get back!

Anything but this…… - Not worth the money. Waited 45 minutes for pick up then had to stand outside in the cold for 30 minutes because they weren’t ready to let us in. Food was decent not worth the price. Show was like watching your kids performance. Do not waste your money. Go to a real tango dance hall where you can watch and dance without paying!
