San Telmo, Downtown & Puerto Madero Personal Walking Tour
In Downtown we will take a walk along Mayo Avenue to appreciate its incredible early XX century architecture, the first skyscraper of Buenos Aires, we will pass the Congress Palace, take a ride on the wooden original cars of the oldest subway line in South America. We will cross the "supposed to be widest Avenue in the World" 9 de Julio Avenue, make a stop or just take a peek into the magnificent Tortoni Cafe (which has been functioning since 1958), and visit Plaza de Mayo, the Cathedral, Mayo Pyramid, the Pink House (Casa Rosada), where Evita and Perón used to speak to the "descamisados".
We will finish the tour exploring Puerto Madero. This is the newest neighborhood of the city, a former old and abandoned port that now has become one of the most expensive and glamorous residential areas in Buenos Aires. Some XIX century grain storage buildings and docklands had been refurnished by well known designers (Phillip Starck, FOster, Pelli), as Luxury Hotels and Residences. Availability: Everyday.
