We had a very interesting tour of Jewish life in Buenos Aires with our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and provided us with a wealth of information about the immigration of Jews in the early years, where they settled in the city and surrounding regions as well as the two horrific terrorist attacks on the Israeli embassy and Jewish cultural Center. We would highly recommend this tour.
