Buenos Aires is the most popular travel destination in South America. After visiting these must see tour sites, you will know why. Plaza de Mayo is the heart of this capital city and the site of the May 25, 1810 revolution, which led to Argentina's independence. It's now the country's political hub, bordered by La Casa Rosada, a baby pink building, and office of the Argentine President.
Equally astounding is the 19th-century Neoclassical facade of the Metropolitan Cathedral (housing the Mausoleum of General San Martin, the primary leader responsible for Argentina's independence) and the regal Cabildo (the Colonial Town Hall). These sights will remind you of a European capital enhanced by Argentine style. Then there's the giant Obelisk of Buenos Aires, a National Historic Monument marking 100 years of government. This impressive structure is surrounded by an LED light district reminiscent of New York City's Times Square. The Buenos Aires entertainment industry movers and shakers can be seen there.
You'll then drive through the glamorous Recoleta Quarter, known for its upscale shops, renowned art galleries, and fine dining, before returning to the ship. As a cultural capital of South America, Buenos Aires boasts the highest concentration of theaters in the world. For first-time visitors, this private tour offers an unforgettable introduction to the city. Bring your sense of adventure for the convenient and comprehensive journey through Argentina's magnificent metropolis.
