Let us guide you through the journey of a lifetime into the cradle of Argentine Tango: Buenos Aires!

​  In the hearts of all those who dream about travelling to South America and Argentina  (and of many more alike) there is one experience that is at the top of everyone's bucket list: dancing Tango in Buenos Aires, the very cradle of this incredible art.
Many travel agencies offer tours, but most of the times they are organized by non-locals, are very touristic-oriented (not to say overpriced...) and only offer a superficial view of this magical city and of the argentine tango world.
Your guides for this journey, Julian and Alan, would like to invite you to share with us something different:  a trip to Buenos Aires of the duration of 10 days that will be dedicated to experience the authentic life of a true "porteño" (inhabitant of Buenos Aires), accessing adventures and places that in general a tourist does not get to live!
The trip includes 10 days and 9 nights: we will learn tango with world masters and legends, live unforgettable dance nights in milongas (tango ballrooms) every evening, assist to concerts from the best contemporary orchestras, and dive deep into the heart of a city that we are sure will make this trip memorable and change you forever. Are you ready?
