An Unforgettable Visit to Teatro Colón - This walking tour was absolutely fantastic. The history behind the Teatro Colón is truly impressive. Our guide was outstanding—very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. After the theatre visit, she took us to explore the beautiful architecture of the city. I genuinely enjoyed every moment of this walking tour and highly recommend it.

Exploring Teatro Colon and the Grand Palaces of Buenos Aires - The last time I was in Buenos Aires in 2005, I took a short tour of Teatro Colon and wanted a more in depth experience this time. I found this tour, which also included a palace walking tour afterward. Our guide, Mariela, facilitated our entry into the theater, where another guide, Vanesa, led the theater portion. Vanesa spoke excellent English and kept the tour moving, even though the group was much larger than I expected. Next time I will look for a private tour. The only time the group size became an issue was during the visit to the private boxes. There were not enough boxes open for everyone, so if you were not among the first to enter, you ended up in the back, which limited your photo opportunities. Since my partner and I were toward the back, she used a selfie stick to compensate and was scolded by the guide. I am not sure why a selfie stick was a problem in such a large space, but it was forbidden. Please be aware of this rule when you visit, because we did not see it posted anywhere. After the theater portion, we met back up with Mariela, who continued with the palace walking tour in English. This part of the tour was fascinating, because we learned about the nearby palaces and their history. We also discovered some hidden gems, such as the small Museo Nacional de Arte Decorativo inside the Palacio Errazuriz Alvear. It was packed with so much to see in such a compact space. It was wonderful and very interesting. The walking tour included the following stops: Palacio de Justicia (Tribunales), Teatro Cervantes, Av. 9 de Julio, Palacio Paz, Palacio San Martin (Cancilleria), Calle Arroyo, Palacio Noel (Estilo colonial espanol), Embajada de Francia (Palacio Ortiz Basualdo), La Mansion (Four Seasons), Palacio Pereda, Nunciatura, Palacio Duhau (Park Hyatt), Mansion Maguire, and Alvear Palace. Mariela would have kept going, but after nearly two hours of walking, we were tired and hungry, so we parted ways. We definitely got our money’s worth and appreciated Mariela’s knowledge and friendly demeanor. She even offered to walk us back to our hotel, although we told her it was not necessary. This combined experience was worth the price, and I highly recommend it for anyone who is comfortable walking moderate distances and wants a deeper understanding of Teatro Colon and the surrounding palaces.

Great experience - We had the best time on this tour! We saw the stunning opera house and many more beautiful mansions while learning history and interesting trivia.

Fantastic tour guide! - Franco was our tour guide and can I say, he was fantastic! I messed up and we went to the wrong location making us 30 minutes late. He gave us two options and fixed the tour with the museum. He’s incredibly smart and funny! Knows so much history of BA. I highly recommend him and would definitely book with him again!

Best Tour Experience - What a wonderful experience. I highly recommend to anyone. The opera house is beautiful and the tour of the city was top notch.

Vacation in Buenos Aires - Very good tour of palaces and various streets. Casual and interesting. Good start time and not too long.

Wonderful panorama - Columbus Theatre in all its glory, we went to see a symphony and it was wonderful, we bought a ticket of approx 7 thousand and we had partial view and it was still wonderful, we took a thousand photos and the place is impressive,

Teatro Colon Review - The tour itself was very informative, although the group was perhaps larger than was ideal. We are from the U.S., and we often found it to be challenging to understand the guide’s dialogue. Probably unavoidable.
