Discover Buenos Aires from an anthropological point of view. Don't expect to just walk and listen: be prepared to talk, make questions and discuss about the past, present and future of the Argentinean capital.
Beginning in Lezama Park and ending in Casa Rosada, this walk offers you the chance to approach this beautiful city from its historical past in an attempt to understand its current present.
Who were the first inhabitants? Why were the British so interested in this shores? Where is the African-descendant population? Where did all these white people come from? What is the deal with Evita and Perón? Who were the "desaparecidos" during the military dictatorship? And why do we have such a big problem with the US dollar?
These are just some of the many questions we will try to answer in our walk through the most historical part of town.

Nico was such a great guide and the tour absolutely lived up and even exceeded expectations!
We learned history from the first settlers in Argentina to how society developed to what it is today, and many interesting facts in-between.
Nico gave is a different perspective of Argentina, Buenos Aires and even surrounding countries. He had answers to all our questions, great sense of humor and complete frankness.
100% recommend!
