Buenos Aires Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
Named for good sailing winds, Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina, and home to nearly a quarter of the country’s two million residents. Come for the stunning European architecture, and stay for delicious cuts of meat, the city’s zest for soccer, and, of course, the tango.
“The Paris of South America” boasts outstanding shopping and a friendly populace. A tour of Buenos Aires should cut through La Boca Harbor, where you’ll find numerous street vendors, restaurants, and street dancers willing to give you a spin. Wander down the streets to take in colorful artwork, and make a game out of asking the locals what neighborhood you should tour next. Here’s a hint: with so much to see, everyone will give you a different answer!
Some will tell you to visit San Telmo for souvenirs, patio shopping, and crumbling historical buildings. Others will suggest Puerto Madero, a refurbished shipping port that boasts a mixture of old-world glamour and modern buildings. What everyone will suggest, however, is a stop by Plaza de Mayo. There you can take in the rosy architecture of the Casa Rosada, which was made famous by Argentine First Lady Eva Peron and the musical about her life, “Evita.” Take a tour and learn about her life, from her humble beginnings to her rise to power.
Cap off your Buenos Aires sightseeing with an evening walk through Puerto Madero, where you can get a late dinner and dance until the next day arrives.

Enjoy Argentinas capital as best as possible with this Travel Video Guide by getting to know the history, the culture and of course the food - if you take it easy this list can keep you busy for a whole week.
And yes - there is much more to do but I challenged myself to highlight the most popular things to do in Buenos Aires ;)
--- Top 10 Things to do in Buenos Aires, Argentina ---
1) free walking tour (innercity & main sights)
I discovered Demasiado tours through Couchsurfing and recommendations from friends I met at different CouchSurfing meetings in Buenos Aires.
more info: Demasiado Tours, (
2) Recoleta neighborhood & cemetery
This barrio is one of the fancy onces, close to the city center -- great architecture, nice parks and one of the most popular cemeteries in town with impressive graves of notable people like Evita. I did a free tour here as well to get a quick overview before walking around on my own.
more info: Recoleta free walking tour - Buena Onda Free Tour (
La Recoleta Cemetery -
3) Buenos Aires Street Art Tours
Matt became a good friend of mine and runs unique graffiti toursfollow providing loads of information about the murals, the artists and the Street Art Scene in general -- a great way for people who are new to Street Art to dive into this interesting culture!
more info: Buenos Aires Street Art Tours (#3):
BA Street Art Tours, ( - also a great Blog about Streetart and Graffiti in general!
4) Ice Cream, Helado, Gelato -- mmmh!
The amount of people who immigrated from Italy to Buenos Aires and Argentina in general is very high -- therefore you can find loads of great Ice Cream Parlours here. Beside the big chains like Freddo you should go for some family owned businesses -- ask the locals as they know best where to go!
more info: Top 5 Ice Cream Parlours (#4):
5) Discover Buenos Aires by Bike
Time to do something active: grab a bike and cycle around the city (like I did in Berlin)! Since 2 years the city provides a decent network of bicycle routes & most of the hostels offer a bike rental service. This is a great way to get to know Puerto Madero as there is no Subte (Metro) station close to it.

6) Parks
After all these activities it's time for a break! Luckily you can find a decent amount of green areas all around the city. My favourite one has been Bosques de Palermo
more info: Top 5 Buenos Aires Parks (#6):
7) Tango
Tango was born in San Telmo and there is an option to watch it for free at the sundays open-air market.
8) San Telmo Market / Sunday fair
The best day to visit the oldest barrio of Buenos Aires, San Telmo, is possibly on Sundays where you can stroll along the antique-market. Though it is very touristy it is a good place to get some nice souvenirs.
more info: San Telmo (#8):
9) Steak & Malbec Wine
There is no visit to Argentina without having a great steak sided by some of the best wines you can find! Beside having an Asado with friends, the restaurant Las Cabras is a very good and budget friendly option which is quite popular by locals, too!
more info: Steak Restaurant (#9):
Las Cabras - cheap, tasty and popular amongst locals (
10) Party & Nightlife
Buenos Aires is exhausting as you can party there every night ;) Around the neighborhood Palermo you can find a high density of Bars and Clubs.
