Product Info

We will start at Juana Azurduy monument, very close to the door of Puerto Madero.
Before getting into the neighborhood, we will be able to walk a few blocks looking at the old city on the right side and a wide view of Puerto Madero on the left. This is a great panorama to better understand the history and context of Puerto Madero.
Then we will head straight into Puerto Madero. The exciting story of how the failure of a port became, over the decades, a tourist success and a cutting-edge neighborhood.
Once inside the neighborhood, the main spots we will view are:
• A. M. de Justo Avenue, the place with the fanciest restaurants in the city
• A walk through Puerto Madero channels
• The Frigates ARA Sarmiento and ARA Uruguay and their stories
• The Woman's Bridge, turned into the insignia of the place
• We cross the channel and get into the residential zone of Puerto Madero
• The few old constructions from the Madero port times, now turned into museums and art galleries
• The view of the old city from Puerto Madero
• The Argentine Women's Park
• The modern buildings of Puerto Madero
• The Ecological Reserve, 350 hectares, only 700 meters away from the center of Buenos Aires
• We end the tour back in the channels

I will love your presence, your questions and your comments during the trip.
See you there!
