Day 1 Buenos Aires. D Arrival and reception. At due time, walking tour through the historical center of the city. Our tour takes us from Plaza de Mayo, witness since 1810 of various popular expressions, to San Telmo neighbourhood, where we breathe a bohemian atmosphere. During the walk, we enter the San Telmo Market and we sit in a typical bar to enjoy a porteño custom (porteño is the nickname that the inhabitants of Buenos Aires’ city receive): coffee. At the end, we visit the Zanjón de Granados, where it is possible to visit a tunnel with more than four centuries of Buenos Aires’ history. In the evening, we go on a Tour of Bodegones (taverns), former stores where the gauchos and criollos used to meet, that evolved into restaurants where Argentinians eat like at home. We start with a stop to take a vermouth or appetizer. This drink was originally made from medicinal or digestive herbs, but then evolved into spicy wines or signature cocktails. We try an aperitif, while the guide tells us a little more about this ritual and the Spanish and Italian influences in Argentinian cuisine. We end at a bodegón, where we have dinner, that lacks of gourmet touches, but we guarantee that your palate will be grateful. Day 2 Buenos Aires. B D Day at leisure in order to enjoy an optional tour. We suggest that you should get to know the city’s north area by making a walking tour, in which you will admire the architecture of one neighbourhood of the city. At night, we enjoy a closed-door gastronomic experience, which explores new ways of Argentinian Barbecue ‘Fogón Experience’. The five-step tasting menu was designed to combine new grill techniques with truly and tasted Argentinian recipes, that raise the Asado to a new level, combining some of the best boutique wines of Argentina. Day 3 Buenos Aires. B L A little before noon, we start with this tour that leads us to taste one of the typical meals of Buenos Aires: pizza. While we move around pizzerias, we approach to its history, we understand the Genoese, Sicilian and Neapolitan influences and the main differences that set us apart with Italian pizza. In order to know the Argentinian pizza you can choose one of these circuits that we have prepared. In these routes,

we visit three historical pizzerias where we will understand their importance in Buenos Aires’ gastronomy once we taste their speciality. We recommend combining this experience with a tour around La Boca, where you can breathe pizza’s culture. Day 4 Buenos Aires. B Time at leisure to continue discovering the different gastronomic corners of the city and make a short stop at a historical café (remarkable bars) to enjoy a ¨cortado´ (coffee prepared with a few drops of milk) to say goodbye to Buenos Aires. At due time, transfer to the airport. Operational notes: Day 3: Pizzerías Tour could be at noon or at night, except its Palermo version that is only available at night, except its Palermo version that is only available at night.
