Touring with Cultura Cercana was the best decision we made while planning for our trip to BA. The positive reviews (like this one is going to be) are absolutely accurate. We spent two full days with the folks from this company, and it enhanced our trip immeasurably. Our first day was the full day driving tour of Buenos Aires, and... More

We had a fantastic tour of Buenos Aires with Francisco of Cultura Cercana late January this year. We covered everything possible including an inside tour of Casa Rosada b/c it was a weekend. Francisco was wonderful and we both have already given his name and the company name to friends who may be going there next year. Recommend very highly!!

We took the tango tour and loved it. It is a little expensive ($135/person), but we'd do it again in a minute. The guides, Andres and Milta, were wonderful. We loved the lesson and have a great appreciation now for the difficulty of the dance. But they took us to one of the best (some say THE best) milongas in... More

We did a half day tour on our first day in Buenos Aires. Our guide, Francisco, was absolutely fantastic. We were able to see all the highlights and spend more time at the attractions we were interested in. Francisco was knowledgeable and entertaining -- and made important and interesting points in comparing Argentine history/culture with that of United States and... More

So we had just landed in Buenos Aires after being delayed in Frankfurt for 18 hours and to say we were grumpy was putting it mildly. Great way to start a honeymoon huh? Anyway, within 5 mins of meeting our guide Pablo and stepping into his air conditioned car, I felt like I was on holidays. Pablo our guide rocked.... More

We took their Evita Tour and we couldn't have been happier! Francisco, our guide, was excellent! He took us all around the city, including the Casa Rosada, Evita Museum and Recoleta Cemetery. I'd definitely recommend this!

We have done many private tours around the world and these people are right at the top of our experiences. An exceptional day and at a very comfortable pace (including time for a relaxing lunch). Go for the whole day package...you will not be sorry.

A friend and I used Cultura Cercana in February of this year... We were not disappointed. Our guide was Pablo, who was one of the best private guides that I have ever met. His car was nice and clean, his english is great, and he is very well educated. We really enjoyed our time with him, especially our lunch at... More

Listen, you there, yes you there... I am sure if you are anything like me, you have been scouring the internet looking for top notch hotels, restaurants, and tours in order to make your vacation, scratch that, most likely already very expensive vacation, the best it can be. Well trust me, if you are visiting the city of Buenos Aires,... More

We took the eight hour city tour that started with Francisco picking us up at the airport and felt that it was an incredible introduction to Buenos Aires. With our visits to areas like La Boca, Recoleta, and San Telmo, we were provided the perspective and detailed background that you can never attain on your own. We also received solid... More
