Description

This is a journey through the time and history of Buenos Aires, going back in time to understand the present and enjoy today’s Argentina with all the senses. This itinerary is ideal to understand the history of Argentina by getting to know the city of Buenos Aires as the main axis of the development of the region. An itinerary that allows us to learn and understand to a great extent the history of the whole of Argentina from the influence and contributions made by different waves of immigration, the reasons that motivated their movement and how history is reflected in the deepest part of the local culture. Considering the temporality and the events that marked history, we will be able to see from the social and cultural contribution of the Jesuit Missions and the establishment of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, which would later be overthrown by the Liberator army to give birth to Argentina as a Nation, to the arrival of an enormous number of European immigrants that gave rise to the first mestizations that finally ended up shaping the local population.

The visit to the national historical museum provides a plus by contributing elements that complement everything that you will be able to experience in the streets of La Boca, San Telmo and the center of Buenos Aires. We propose a journey through time, through the history of Argentina by visiting the city of Buenos Aires. This city has been and is a nucleus from which influential events for the whole territory have taken place.

    One of the best trips of my life

    I had a wonderful trip and would do it again in a heartbeat! Eva helped me plan everything and was always available before and during my trip to answer questions. She tailored accommodations and travel times within the country to make my visit relaxed and enjoyable at the same time. I felt a sincere desire in her to provide me with the best experience. I also appreciated the driver they chose for me, Eduardo. He was not only trustworthy but also very knowledgeable about the area highlights and history. I would highly recommend Argentina Pura and Eva to anyone who would like to visit Argentina.

    It has been a positive experience working with Argentina Pura from the first engagement when I filled the form on their website till the time we’ve returned back home. They were quick to respond and helped to tailor a well planned trip. It was challenging to include all the destinations I asked for in the time we had for the trip, and yet they managed to do it in the most efficient and enjoyable way. What was more amazing was how smoothly everything ran. All the flights were on time, the transfers, the excursions. It was well organized and the team was highly professional, friendly, knowledgeable and spoke English extremely well. We had the most amazing time in Argentina and big part of it is thanks to the professionalism of this agency. Highly recommended!

    A pleasure to travel to Argentina

    I have already traveled with this company on 3 occasions. To Mendoza, to Bariloche and surrounding areas, and the last time to the North. It was a pleasure to "travel to Argentina", and with them it becomes even easier, since they made everything very easy for us, the hotels, the transfers and the excursions. Never a problem. To recommend!!
