DESTINATION
Landing in Buenos Aires is one of the best experiences of the world, especially if you are lucky enough to get a clear, bright day. You can see the magnificent scale of the immense Rio de La Plata, which curiously is brown, with its nooks and coves. The area of the river mouth is so broad that it's considered by many as an adjacent sea to the Atlantic and provides amazing views of land and sea. Fly over the most recent area of the city, with its mirrored and modern buildings, see the rugby fields, the beautiful race course and the famous polo field.
The Argentines love their horses and one of the tours you can do to make your days memorable is precisely to visit the del Matadero fair, where the gaucho culture of the Pampas is manifested in all its magnificence. From Pampas also comes the delicious and tender flesh in which Argentina is famous. Whether with family or with work colleagues dinners, it is easy to stay at the table talking while sipping a Malbec and enjoying your perfectly cooked ojo de chorizo. There is always a hedonistic side to your stay, whether it surges from the local gastronomy or from the pure livelihood of the streets.
After that it's up to you: if you want to get out on foot, you are near everything. The beautiful Recoleta neighborhood, with its shady trees and Madrid/Paris-inspired buildings, has shops, "empanadarias", banks and bookstores, perfect for you to get lost in the morning. If you have a chance, visit the El Ateneo bookstore, set in an ancient theater with over 100 years of history. It is considered one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world and offers the possibility of staying and read in a cabin, which is truly special. Back on the street, wander and change neighborhoods; pass by Retiro and go through, if you like shopping and energy, the Florida street. Located right in the middle of the "Baixa", which is actually the center, you can find many streets of limited circulation. Move along to the famous Praça de Maio and also enjoy visiting the amazing Casa Rosada, engraved forever in popular culture.
