Great intro to Buenos Aires - Really comprehensive introduction to Buenos Aires. The pick up from hotel was punctual, and the bus comfortable.
We saw most of the sights, and had free time to walk around. Daniella was very informative and helpful.

Great tour - Really interesting trip. Florencia the guide was incredible, really looked after every member of the group, encouraged questions and answered them fully and openly. The driver was great and the photographer was lovely. Highly recommended.

Super experience. Would highly recommend to any and all. - Tour guide was very knowledgeable about not only Buenos Aires, but also Argentina. And he expressed this knowledge in several different languages. For me, best tour highlights included Recoleta, Plaza de Mayo and La Boca. Kudos to all.

An enjoyable, informative tour. - Pick up was over half an hour late to the time stated on our documentation. Tour guide knowledgeable, although all information delivered in both english and spanish. Would have been good to include entry to the cemetery rather than just peeping in from the outside. Perhaps a complimentary bottle of drinking water would have been appreciated as it was very hot. Overall enjoyable.

City Tour Buenos Aires - did not meet expectations - We took a 4.5 hour Premium City tour on 4 March 2024 & we were disappointed. The first hour was spent doing pickups at 5 or 6 other hotels. The pre-booking through Viator listed the stops & we did not do Calle Defensa Bairro San Telmo, the Mafalda statue & Dulce de Leche tasting & we spent less time at other stops. We did pass by a number of landmarks listed but not slowing down or close enough to enable photos from the bus. The highlight was La Boca, Caminito where we did have free time to walk a bit. Colourful & enjoyable there.

Small group? We had 14 multinational languages - This tour was just okay. There were 14 people, half English half Spanish speaking. 14 is pushing the limit for a small group if they aren't the same nationality. This is how it went as we drove (quickly) by points of interest....In Spanish the guide would describe the building/statue in some length. Then in English, he'd say for example "that yellow house we passed was...., or "behind us, that was a statue representing....." We were English speaking so we were always looking behind us to try to see what it was. I think the points of interest toured were probably fine if we had been able to hear what they were as we were seeing them. Although should note, we did not see the cemetery or the Eva Perone monument. I would recommend using a different tour company since city tours are abundant

No really a walking tour more a bus tout - The stop at Caminito was memorable.
The excursion was spoilt somewhat by the late arrival at the pick up point (20 minutes) with no contact. The guide was very pleasant but hard to hear.

This tour operator did not delivery the value expected. - Paoula was our guide. She was soft spoken and knowledgeable about the geography of the sites we toured. Sadly though, her depth of knowledge was lacking. This was also an English language tour and again, sadly, her command of the language was very limited. I fault the tour company for putting her in that situation and for the fact she needs more training to be fair to the tourists who book the tours.
This is not what we expect from Viator who we have used ma y times before.
