The 9 Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals in Buenos Aires, Capital Federal District

October 29, 2021 Madelene Haan

The birthplace of the tango is, like the dance itself, captivating, seductive and bustling with excited energy. Atmospheric old neighborhoods are rife with romantic restaurants and thumping nightlife, and Buenos Aires' European heritage is evident in its architecture, boulevards and parks. Cafe Tortoni, the city's oldest bar, will transport you back to 1858, and the spectacular Teatro Colon impresses just as it did in 1908. Latin America's shopping capital offers the promise of premium retail therapy along its grand, wide boulevards.

I wanted lo leave a review for these guys because it was an unusually great experience. We rented two bikes from them and not only got the bikes but a detailed map with bike lanes in Buenos Aires and a talk with the history of the places we were about to visit and great suggestions to eat along the ride. Looks like Fernando and Gonzalo really enjoy what they do and they transmit their love for biking and Buenos Aires to their customers.

This is a fantastic way to get around, see the city, and learn a lot. Get off at the Boca stadium stop for some shopping and some good food. Whenever I take a group to BA, we always take one day to relax and do this tour.
