About this activity

In Buenos Aires, food moves like a tango – part tradition, part improvisation, part seduction – across parrillas, bodegones, bakeries, and historic cafés. On this full-day walk, we’ll trace the city’s heritage, tasting how immigrant flavors converge into a distinctly Argentine table. From flaky medialunas and empanadas to hearty stews, towering platters of grilled meat, and dulce de leche-swirled gelato, we’ll meet the people and places that keep these culinary rituals alive.
