Day 1: The Center

Explore Plaza Intendente and then head over to La Recoleta, Bueno Aires’ famous cemetery which houses hundreds of stories each with a different history. I’d recommend going through with a guide so that you can learn the depth of the cemetery's significance in the moment.

Head over to Plaza de Mayo where you should be able to take a photo on the Avenida Presidente Roque Saenz Pena with the Obelisco in the background. On the plaza, watch the guards switch then take a walk through Catedral Metropolitana and explore the area which houses some of Argentina’s most prominent buildings.

Explore the San Telmo neighborhood and its markets. Here you’ll also find the San Telmo Market which is filled with all sorts of shops. You can get lost here and find some lunch.

Tango is a dance born in the streets of Argentina. It holds deep roots in the country's history and is intertwined with the immigration into the country as well during the 19th and 20th centuries. Spend the evening taking tango lessons at La Ventana - Barrio de Tango and then enjoy a dinner with Tango afterward where you’ll get to see both traditional tango accompanied by a variety of other performances.

Day 2: La Boca and Palermo

Spend the morning wandering La Boca, Buenos Aires’ most colorful neighborhood. It lies on the port from which it gets its name: “the mouth” of the river. Its location made it a common place for immigrants to settle in "Conventillos" upon arriving in Bueno Aires. Tango was among one of the art forms born here. The Neighborhood houses Boca Juniors which, the area's well known soccer team, so you’ll be able to find the sports impact throughout the neighborhood.

Optionally, La Boca lies very close to la Playa Reserva Ecológica Buenos Aires, if you’d like to explore this you may want to consider saving the rest of today’s itinerary for tomorrow.

In the afternoon, head over to Palmero, a section of the city north of La Boca. Here you can check out Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA), which is the city's museum of art, or Planetario Galileo Galilei located in Paseo El Rosedal Garden also called Tres de Febrero Park. This is the largest green space in the city of Buenos Aires and along with its beautiful nature (including the Rose Garden), holds many different attractions.

Stop by Tealosophy Palermo and explore the area, Plaza Serrano in which it lies.

Day 3: Learning more

Take part in a Half-Day of cooking at Criolla "Foundations of Argentine Cooking".

To dive into some more history in the area, take a tour of Zanjón de Granados, an underground building site dating back to 1536.
