The Buenos Aires City Guides deal with what every visitor wonders: which parrilla is worth the wait, which grand buildings you can tour for free, where to hear real tango instead of a dinner show and how to get to the Tigre delta or across the river to Colonia in a day. Every place has the reason to go, what to order or look for and one practical tip, and the guides open in your browser as soon as you have paid.

Three places from the guides
Güerrín
Av. Corrientes 1368, Teatro district
A giant pizzeria with room for about a thousand diners and a standing counter by the door. Grab a slice of fugazzeta, heavy with onions and mozzarella, and eat it on your feet like the porteños do. From the food guide.
Palacio Barolo
Av. de Mayo 1370, Monserrat
An office tower from 1923 planned around Dante’s Divine Comedy and crowned by a small lighthouse. The guided tour climbs 22 floors to the finest view of the Congress and the centre. From the things to do guide.
Calle de los Suspiros
Calle de los Suspiros, old town, Colonia
Colonia’s cobbled “Street of Sighs”, lined with low pastel houses, tiled roofs and old lamps. Everyone photographs it, so walk it in the morning while it is still quiet. From the day trips guide.
Plan your days in Buenos Aires
Day one: start at Plaza de Mayo and the cathedral, join the free tour of the Congreso, eat a slice of fugazzeta on Avenida Corrientes and end the night in a tango or jazz room. Day two: take the train to Tigre and the delta, or the ferry to the old town of Colonia del Sacramento. For a rainy or slow day, combine the Teatro Colón tour, El Ateneo Grand Splendid and a free museum with a long café stop and a gelato.
