Culture tours
Buenos Aires is laden with culture-orientated tours that can offer more imaginative perspectives that the average tourist trail. The city’s street art scene comes alive with Graffitimundo who takes groups around BA’s many colourful murals while explaining their history and significance. Food lovers may prefer to opt for the Parrilla Tour to sample some of the city’s finest cuts, choripán (chorizo sandwich) and empanadas in its local hangouts.
