Teatro Colon

The Teatro Colon, in the City of Buenos Aires, is considered one of the best theaters in the world. Acknowledged for its acoustics and the artistic value of its construction, it turned 100 years in 2008.

I walked into the Teatro Colón box office one morning and was able to book an English speaking guided tour within the hour. It cost $1000 pesos which was well worth the visit. Luckily, the group of this tour was relatively small, which made the visit a more intimate experience. The informative tour gradually led to the exquisite Concert Hall where we were seated in one of the main balconies which overlooked the stage and impressive auditorium. You could only imagine what it would be like to attend a concert, opera or ballet here. Given the time & opportunity, I would have gladly done this.

This little gem was a great experience even with my 2 kids. We arrived and had lunch with the most amazing food and wine at a very good price. The man servering us (Daniel) was able to explain in Spanish and English and gave great attention to our kids and took them to feed the fish in the pond they have. His service was outstanding. After a quick lay in the hammocks outside then off to a wonderful tour with Freddie who's English was very good and the tour was so informative. Nothing was too much and they even called taxis for us to get home. Super recommendable ..

Basilica Menor San Francisco

This towering church with striking white pillars is one of Salta’s most famous landmarks, often pictured on the city's postcards.

Reviewed By 311queenj - California, United States

Not only is this a beautiful church inside and out, but the tour was one of our favorites in Argentina. This church and convent was founded by the Franciscan Monks. Construction of the first sanctuary began in 1685, though it took a a hundred years and some renovations to complete the entire site as it is seen today. The bell tower is the tallest in S. America at 57 meters, and is home to the Campaña de la Patria bell, made from the bronze cannons used in the War for Independence. They ring the bells once a day at 7:30 pm. The tour is about 1.5 hours and takes visitors throughout the museum quarters of the church - the old living quarters of the monks, rooms with church relics and robes, halls with the original walls, moldings, and sculptures, the belfry tower, the balcony with the organ overlooking the church pews below, the courtyard, and the main church. The tour was very informative and was a private tour since no one else showed up. Be aware that the guided tour is only given in Spanish. The museum and tour hours are 10am to 6pm, Monday through Friday. The tour was only a few dollars, around 200 or 300 pesos per person. Tours run regularly about every hour. It is closed for lunch between 1pm and 2pm. There are 40 minute audioguides available in Spanish, English, and French that you can download to your phone from the website, but I am not sure what kind of access you have to the site when you don't go with a guide. There are certainly more beautiful churches in Argentina, but we liked this tour because it was a private, personalized tour. Because we had our own tour guide to ourselves, the pace revolved around us, our photo taking, and our questions. It was well worth the time.

Casa Historica de Tucuman

Reviewed By DiegoR21_ARG - Rafaela, Argentina

A MUST if you visit San MIguel de Tucumán, it's a very well organized museum where you can really enjoy history, getting to know the historical house where Argentina was born as an independent country. It has recently been updated with some technology to increase interactivity for visitors and it's a great place to visit.
