We found Cultura Cercana on Trip Advisor and booked it for our stay in Buenos Aires. Luciano was our driver/guide. He was knowledgeable, kind and considerate. He provided an extremely clean and safe car. The taxi drivers are crazy scary in B.A. but we felt very safe with Luciano. He also set up a tango lesson one evening for us... More

We took a boat ride with Andres to his home, a lttle ranch on the river. He and Mirta provided information throughout the day and... More

Thanks, Fabian, for a wonderful day in BA yesterday. I highly recommend this tour to others coming to BA without a lot of experience in the city yet. He brought us all around the city and we had a very nice lunch at Café Margot in Barrio de Boedo. Fabian knows the history and politics of the city and is... More

My brother and I recently spent a full day with Fabián Ali in Buenos Aires. Fabián showed us all around the city, pointing out unusual locations. He also discussed with us fascinating information on life as a Porteño, Argentine politics and Rioplatense (the brand of Spanish spoken in BA). We ate at a nice cafe (Café Margot in Barrio de...

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful full day tour with Laura the day after arriving in Buenos Aires. Laura introduced us to the city, pointing out many of the highlights. She was able to help us make decisions about which places we would want to return to and spend more time at on our own. In addition, she took... More

My husband and I had, literally, a magical experience on our 8 hour city tour with Fabian Ali. Fabian took us to the main attractions and areas throughout the city while providing numerous political and historical facts. Fabian was very friendly and the tour itinerary was flexible depending on what we felt like doing. One of the highlights of the... More

We had never used a private tour company before, but felt that with just 5 days in Buenos Aires combined with our inability to speak Spanish - that we'd learn and see more of what we wanted to see with a private guide. After reading the reviews on TA and looking at companies web-sites we chose Cultura and so glad... More

We booked a tour with Cultura Cercana after doing a little research and were very satisfied with the experience. Our guide, Laura, was great, from her knowledge of Buenos Aires itself to her expanded knowledge about Argentina as a whole. She was very personable and her English was fantastic. She made sure to ask us what we were interested in... More
