What to do and see in Palermo, Capital Federal District: The Best Lessons & Workshops

October 23, 2021 Joeann Galban

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.

Empanadas Cooking Class - fantastic and friendly husband and wife duo Verónica (a sommelier) & Manuel (a professional chef) walked our group through the making of dulce de leche, flan and two different empanadas along with accompanying beverages (wine for most, thoughtfully considered non-alcoholic pairings for those of us who do not imbibe) while regaling us with Buenos Aires and Argentina's history, allocation and distribution of national resources, the early immigrants and a most apparent love of food. Hands on and observational instruction. We got to eat everything at the end! :) Well worth a half-day of your journey!

La Milonguita

Reviewed By 36ANG63 - Buenos Aires, Argentina

If you are visiting Buenos Aires and would like to feel the local tango experience, how it works, what kind of people attend it, what music tangueros dance, what dressing code they wear, then the Milonguita on Wednesday is a must. Not only is it a glamorous venue but it is also well served, with pizzas or empanadas, and wines and champagnes, and sometimes there is a visiting orchestra or professional dancers performances. If you dance tango, then it is a must! The men/women numbers is well balanced, so solo dancers will almost certainly meet partners to dance. Mind you, the dancing level is advanced... not good for beginners.

I loved studying at IW! The teachers made me feel comfortable and welcome while still giving me the challenges I needed to learn. I learned a lot here in just 7 classes! On top of that, Alejandra always had amazing tips about the city and other areas such a small Patagonia. She even helped me find an apartment the same day my hostel fell through! What a sweet and super knowledgeable staff! I will definitely come back next time in Buenos Aires!

Wanderlust Spanish

An alternative experience with the same quality of learning. We know there are plenty of options in Buenos Aires to learn our language. With the traditional method of learning, students stare at a blackboard while the teacher lectures to the class. We choose another way. A way where you can feel comfortable with the basics of the language and also learn the many uses of the words

Reviewed By Mehtaa77 - Boston, United States

I highly recommend taking Spanish lessons with one of the lovely teachers at Wanderlust. Having spent a few months while being stuck in Buenos Aires during Covid, I have had a chance to regularly study with Camila. My Spanish has significantly improved during this time and I feel a lot more comfortable with it. The teachers are diverse, interesting, open-minded and make learning Spanish really fun. It’s also a wonderful cultural interchange. Buenos Aires is also a vibrant place to take in this unique language learning experience. A must do if learning Spanish is high on your wish list
