10 Sightseeing Tours in Tigre That You Shouldn't Miss
Day-trip distance from Buenos Aires, the Tigre River Delta offers porteños (Buenos Aires residents) and tourists alike a playground for everything from horseback riding and hiking to fishing and swimming. Comprised of hundreds of tiny islands, the Tigre is about 20 miles northeast of Buenos Aires and is reachable from the city by trains, then by boat from the train station. While the main attraction here is the delta itself (formed where five rivers come together), you’ll also find a Naval Museum, restaurants and playgrounds for kids. Several tour companies offer day-trip excursions to the Tigre River Delta—but visitors also can book stays in area bed & breakfasts and adventure lodges.

We did a 12 day customized trip in 2018. Found this company through Zicasso, Kieran was great arranging it all and communication was easy. Our trip started in Buenos Aires where we did a cooking class at the Argentine Experience and took a tango lesson. Our dance instructors took us out to a milongo afterwards and we ended up staying out until 2am. It was great! We felt completely immersed in the culture. We then flew to Iguazu and toured the jungle, got blasted by the falls in a boat ride and saw all the incredible creatures that live there. Our last 5 days were spent hiking in Patagonia where we trekked the Perito Moreno Glacier, visited a ranch, and then drove to El Chalten for the final days. All of our transportation was provided, all internal flights booked by Kieran, and everything was just wonderful. To this day, it’s one of my favorite vacations!

Probably the highlight of my trip to South America. Matias was very passionate about football and knew all the answers to all the questions I had. He was an excellent guide and made it very enjoyable. Both River and Boca are must see places and this is the perfect way to see both of them, right after each other. Could not recommend Matias and this tour enough. Very good !

Back in January I traveled with my family to Buenos Aires, we hired Argentina Elite Transfers and tours, based on the reviews and the good prices, we were pleasantly surprised with the driver, Patrice, fluent in 3 languages and very professional. The car was spotless, with refrigerator available for drinks. We did call him again during the stay to move around the city, we felt safe the whole time. We are planning to come back when things go back to normal, he recommended the Delta tour so that is on our bucket list!

In this tour you will discover the outskirts of Buenos Aires. You will learn about a completely different way of living. There are no roads or bridges that connect the islands to the mainland. It is a place where citizens visit during the weekends or for short vacations. The lifestyle of the people who live on these islands is completely different from the ones who live in the city. The Delta of Tigre is special for those who want to disconnect themselves from the busy and noisy Buenos Aires city.

Thank you Juan, for an interesting tour, with a good walk around San Telmo that you know and love so well. You had a good balance of facts, history and good pointers about a hat shop, record store, Parrilla restaurant and bars. Your size of tour was perfect- not too large and that gave us time to talk together over the wonderful cold beer and treats.

Three weeks home, we are still in awe of our incredible holiday in beautiful Argentina and that is a result of the exceptional hard work, dedication and passion of Loli Delger and her incredible guides/staff she has partnered with all over Argentina. She single handedly crafted a unique, interesting and most thoughtful trip for our family. From culture/history in Buenos Aires, to trekking and hiking in El Calafate, to paddle boarding, hiking, biking in Bariloche and finally to wine tasting and cooking in Mendoza. Each day was filled with so much interest with every unimaginable detail incorporated. Loli is very well respected in each place we visited so the service we received throughout the different regions were equally superior. I would only recommend Loli as her expertise, commitment and great personality is to be highly commended. Argentina now holds a very special place. We met so many wonderful people throughout working and assisting our days. It is the personal stories told by the people we met that will be memorable always. Thank you so much, Loli for making our trip magical.

We chose Patrick for his rave reviews and we were not disappointed. Patrick picked us up at the ship after our cruise (6 of us with lots of luggage) . A spacious van awaited us with our private driver who stayed with our luggage when we stopped to sight see with Patrick. Patrick knows Buenos Aires and treated us royally. The best fun was when he found a small out of the way restaurant in La Boca called El Gran Paraiso for lunch. Talk about local flavor....the wine was awesome. We had steak and sausage cooked on the grill... the best steak I've ever had. Patrick took us to the airport with plenty of time to spare. Our cruise ended March 7, 2020 just as the Coronavirus was heating up and Patrick had many future cancellations. We hope that he's doing well and that people will once again begin to travel. If you get to Buenos Aires, you must call Patrick - in fact get him in advance because he's a rare find! Great job Patrick...thanks for the wonderful day and hope you're well!
