Gala Tango
After hotel pickup, head to San Telmo neighborhood, the lively home of tango. Arrive at a beautiful building where Gala Tango takes place. If you’ve opted for dinner option, you'll arrive 90 minutes before showtime to enjoy a wine tasting and dig into a three-course meal featuring a wide range of Argentine and international dishes, accompanied by national wines. If you've chosen the show-only option, slip into your seat in time for the performance, and enjoy provided wine or soft drinks. The show involves a typical Orchestra formed by a quintet (piano, large concertina, 2 violins, and double bass) accompanied by two tango singers, four dancing couples, a “charango” player and “boleadoras” show. The show closes with a moving tribute to Eva Perón and then your driver takes you back to your hotel. The show's duration is 1 hour and 40 minutes.
