“Eduardo was an amazing guide! He was so passionate and shared a lot about the history and geography of Quebrada de las Conchas and Cafayate. He was also really great with providing the tour in Spanish and English. I feel like a lot of tour guides leave out information when they translate in English and this wasn't the case with Eduardo. The energy was great and the views were amazing. This was my favourite out of all the tours I did from Salta.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 72 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $90

Meet at 5:30 pm on Lavalle Street for a 3.5-hour food walk through central Buenos Aires. Your guide may be Lara, Adrián, Laura, or Fabian. Expect Argentine empanadas, milanesa, meat, Buenos Aires-style pizza, wine, coffee, and ice cream. The format often combines a long meal at one restaurant with shorter stops elsewhere.

“Our guide was a lovely young woman who tried to make the experience as good as she could. I think this tour would be better positioned as ‘dine around with a local’ as in fact it was NOT A FOOD TOUR as it only had 3 venues and one of those was unable to accommodate us. It wasn’t clear it was a ‘sit and try’ 4 things in the same restaurant and then have a coffee stop and then an ice cream stop. No drinks were offered, no sodas and no wine. These were listed in the description. We were at the first stop and had to ask for water.…”
