Combine two classic Buenos Aires experiences in one memorable day: a scenic trip to the Tigre Delta and an evening of dinner and tango in San Telmo. Travel out to San Isidro and Tigre to discover a different side of the region, then cruise through the delta to see island life, stilt houses, and floating services along the waterways.

Later, return to the city for a night at La Ventana, where a three-course dinner is followed by a live tango show featuring orchestras, singers, folk music, and skilled dancers. It’s an easy way to experience both the calmer rhythms of the delta and the passion of Buenos Aires after dark.

Tigre Delta Sightseeing Tour

You’ll be picked up from your hotel either in the morning or afternoon (as advised upon booking) or, if your hotel is outside the pickup area, meet your guide in central Buenos Aires. 

Board a bus and drive along Costanera Avenue to San Isidro. Once there, see its cathedral and the many mansions inhabited by old aristocratic families before continuing on to Tigre. Here, you will board a catamaran for a 40-minute cruise through the delta. See how people live on the islands and interact with floating services: the supermarket boat, water taxi and more. See the homes built on stilts and President Sarmiento’s home/museum.

At the end of the boat ride, return to port to re-board your coach for the drive back to Buenos Aires, where you tour ends downtown. No drop-off to hotels.

La Ventana Tango Show

After hotel pickup, head to the neighborhood of San Telmo, considered the birthplace of tango and the oldest barrio in Buenos Aires. You'll arrive at a conventillo, a historic tenement where La Ventana takes place. You'll get there 90 minutes before the show to enjoy a delicious three-course dinner including a variety of Argentine and international dishes, accompanied by Argentine wines. Then, it's time for the show as two tango orchestras and an Argentine folk music group play while talented couples dance on stage with sensuality and breathtaking precision.
Listen to different styles of music played by the bands and sung by the singers. The show ends with a moving tribute to Eva Perón. You'll then be dropped off back at your hotel.
