Welcome asado dinner with Nacho Bravo

The Welcome Dinner – Traditional Argentine Asado is a warm and celebratory introduction to Buenos Aires, built around one of Argentina’s most iconic social rituals: the asado. Hosted in a relaxed, convivial setting, the dinner showcases classic Argentine barbecue cuts prepared slowly over the grill, including choripán, bife de chorizo, tira de asado, and mollejas, alongside seasonal vegetables and beloved staple dishes. The meal concludes with a traditional flan con dulce de leche, honoring the comforting flavors of local home-style desserts. As with any true asado, part of the magic lies in the unexpected—the chef’s spontaneous additions, special preparations, or off-menu surprises that reflect creativity, seasonality, and mood. These small twists make each gathering unique and unrepeatable. More than a meal, this dinner is about coming together around the fire: sharing stories, easing into the group dynamic, and experiencing Argentine hospitality at its most genuine. It’s a first night designed to feel less like a formal event and more like being welcomed into someone’s home.

South of the City with a Queer Twist

This South of the City Highlights Tour with a Queer Twist offers a rich introduction to some of Buenos Aires’ most iconic neighbourhoods, combining must-see sights with stories that go beyond the usual narrative. We begin in San Telmo, where colonial architecture, antique markets, and tango traditions set the scene for the city’s early cultural life. Along the way, we explore how tango, carnival, and nightlife allowed for subtle forms of gender play and nonconformity, adding unexpected layers to traditions often presented as strictly conventional. In La Boca, famous for its colorful streets, immigrant roots, and artistic legacy, we dive into the neighbourhood’s working-class history and creative spirit. Here, we highlight how artists, performers, and community spaces — including queer voices often left unnamed — contributed to La Boca’s role as a hub of expression, solidarity, and social change. The tour concludes at Plaza de Mayo, the symbolic heart of Argentina. Surrounded by the Casa Rosada, the Cabildo, and the Metropolitan Cathedral, we trace key moments in national history, from independence to modern democracy. Within this broader story, we touch on how struggles for personal freedom and identity, including those of queer Argentines, intersected with wider movements for human rights and civic participation.

Day 4 – Saturday February 5, 2028 (B,L)

North of the City with a Queer Twist

Buenos Aires is a city built on layers — of power, beauty, resistance, and reinvention. This North of the City with a Queer Twist tour invites you to explore some of the capital’s most iconic landmarks while uncovering the stories that history books and traditional tours usually leave out. We begin in Recoleta Cemetery, where grand mausoleums tell stories not only of presidents and elites, but also of desire, secrecy, chosen families, and the rigid norms queer people had to navigate for generations. From there, we move through Retiro, a neighbourhood shaped by migration, class divides, and informal queer networks that emerged in the shadows of official history. At the National Congress, we shift from hidden lives to public struggle, tracing Argentina’s path toward LGBTQ+ rights — from persecution and silence to landmark legislation and ongoing activism. Here, we explore how queer movements intersected with broader fights for democracy, labor rights, and social justice. The tour concludes with a visit to Mocha Celis, a groundbreaking trans-led organization and community space. More than a school, Mocha Celis is a living example of how queer communities in Argentina continue to create new models of education, dignity, and collective care in the face of exclusion. This tour is not about “queer trivia” — it’s about understanding Buenos Aires through the people who challenged norms, reshaped culture, and expanded the meaning of citizenship.

Day 5 – Sunday February 6, 2028 (B,L,D)

After breakfast we depart Buenos Aires for a two-hour visit to San Antonio de Areco and its traditional craft shops. We then continue to Estancia El Ombú de Areco a historic working ranch located in the heart of Argentine Pampas, near the historic gaucho town of San Antonio. This late-colonial style estate dates back to 1880 and spans 300 hectares of rich agricultural land. It offers a perfect countryside escape to experience authentic gaucho traditions, rural life, and local cuisine

Day 6 – Monday February 7, 2028 (B,L,D)

We have a full day at Estancia El Ombú de Areco, an authentic immersion into Argentina’s rural traditions. Spend the day at a working estancia, enjoy horseback activities, learn about gaucho culture, and savour a traditional asado in a warm, countryside setting.

Day 7 – Tuesday February 8, 2028 (B,D)

After breakfast we transfer to the airport for our flight to Iguazú

Transfer in to hotel. The Argentine Experience Iguazú offers a unique and interactive way to discover Argentina’s food culture through a relaxed, hands-on dining experience. Designed for small groups, this experience is ideal for travelers who want to connect with local traditions in a social and welcoming environment. Guided by local hosts, guests learn about Argentina’s culinary identity while actively participating in the preparation of classic dishes, including handmade empanadas. Throughout the evening, the experience is paired with a tasting of premium Argentine wines, offering insight into the country’s most important wine regions and grape varieties. The evening unfolds as a shared table experience, combining storytelling, food preparation, wine tasting, and a full dinner that reflects Argentina’s flavors and traditions. More than just a meal, The Argentine Experience Iguazú is a cultural introduction to Argentine gastronomy—perfect as a first-night activity or a relaxed complement to the natural wonders of Iguazú Falls.

Day 8 – Wednesday February 9, 2028 (B,L)

Iguazú Falls - Brazil Side

The Brazilian side of Iguazú Falls offers the most spectacular panoramic views of this extraordinary natural wonder. Located within Iguaçu National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this visit provides a wide-angle perspective of the falls, allowing visitors to fully appreciate their immense scale and beauty. The experience follows a well-maintained walkway system that leads along the edge of the canyon, offering continuous viewpoints overlooking the cascading waterfalls. From this side, visitors can see the majority of the falls in a single sweeping view, making it ideal for photography and scenic appreciation. A highlight of the visit is the walkway that extends toward the Devil’s Throat, where visitors stand directly in front of the powerful cascade, surrounded by mist, rainbows, and the thunderous sound of the water. This dramatic viewpoint offers a thrilling and immersive encounter with the falls. In addition to the waterfalls, the Brazilian side allows visitors to enjoy the surrounding Atlantic rainforest, home to tropical birds, butterflies, and lush vegetation. Shorter and more compact than the Argentine side, this excursion is perfect for travelers seeking unforgettable views and a complementary perspective of Iguazú Falls.

The visit includes access to the Upper Circuit and Lower Circuit, each offering different perspectives of the falls, from wide panoramic views to intimate viewpoints just above the rushing water. Along the way, visitors walk through lush subtropical rainforest, home to diverse wildlife such as butterflies, birds, coatis, and tropical plants. A highlight of the excursion is the Devil’s Throat (Garganta del Diablo), where a train ride and elevated walkway lead to a dramatic platform suspended above the most powerful section of the falls. Here, the roar of the water, the mist, and the sheer scale of the cascades create an unforgettable sensory experience. Throughout the visit, there is time to enjoy the scenery, take photographs, and connect with the surrounding nature.
