Come with us on a carefully curated street art walk in Buenos Aires’ most dynamic district! Leave behind stuffy museums and bougie galleries to explore how emerging artists are creating vibrant art corridors to put Palermo Soho on the map as a street art mecca. 

Much like the path of street art, from its shadowy origins as a guerrilla artform regarded as “vandalism” to later being embraced as high culture, Palermo too had humble beginnings as a working class borough but would become transformed into the trendiest area of the city. We'll explore the role street art played in this urban revitalisation.

We'll engage with graffiti's roots in Argentina, which gave the oppressed a voice amidst censorship and authoritarianism, and how it has often mirrored society, reflecting boom and bust economic and political cycles. Recently street art has empowered a youthful revival of urban culture from muralists who use public art to humanise the urban landscape. Today artists encapsulate the country's deepest passions from football, politics, and identity into a vibrant urban tapestry portrayed in massive murals, paste ups and more. 

Not a traditional historical tour, but rather offers the opportunity to better understand the important social and political issues facing Argentina today. You will also hear personal anecdotes from the artists to understand the deeper meaning of their work.  

During this tour we will visit:

- Plaza Serrano
- Villa Alvear
- Palermo Soho
- The moroccan garden
- Don Julio's community garden
- Palermo Viejo

On this private tour of Buenos Aires, you’ll have your own dedicated guide, giving you the freedom to explore the most iconic spots in Argentina’s capital

Everything you need to know about Buenos Aires in three hours.

On this tour we will explore the heart of the city and will talk and learn about the fascinating political history of the Argentinian capital.

From life before the colonial times, the struggle and war of independence, and the waves of immigrants that forever changed the face of the city and the country. The “barn of the world” and how one of the richest countries of the world in the wake of the 20th ended in one of the biggest economic crises of the planet a century later. The lights and shadows behind the myth of the “Europe of the Americas”.

Tango, football, literature, psychotherapy, politics, dictatorships, and resistance, the history of Argentina has all of the ingredients for a passionate drama. And that reflects onto its population.

“To me, Buenos Aires is eternal, like water or air“ (as the famed writer Jorge Luis Borges once said)
