I was really glad to chose a trip starting by boat from Buenos Aires. The view of the city/skyline was really nice. The delta was a whole different world. Very calm and relaxed. I was able to find some nice things at the Puerto de Frutos. So over all a great experience 👍

Great guide but a bit too pedestrian for me - albeit that suited most people on the tour

Full description

On this fun-filled half-day tour of Tigre and Buenos Aires, embark on an adventure that offers the perfect balance between nature and history.

After pick up at your hotel we will drive to the northern áreas of Buenos Aires.

You can choose between 2-hour navigation where you will depart from Puerto Madero, Buenos Aires so you can admire the views of the city from the Rio de La Plata and then continue through the Tigre Delta this way we will get closer to the nature-packed filled with flora and fauna or 1-hour boat ride where we will have a sight of the Tigre Delta, the boat ride continues through a series of narrow channels and islands, through the rivers San Antonio, Angostura, Lujan, Carapachay and Espera; a popular weekend getaway for residents of Buenos Aires and an everyday home to thousands of islanders,

Experience the majestic scenery that’s very different from anything you have seen before while learning all about the locals who live along the peaceful channels with boats as their only means of transportation.
At lunchtime, the boat will drop you off at Tigre, a major city within the Buenos Aires suburbs.

You can choose to enjoy an authentic snack including empanadas (local pasties) and drinks at a historical venue that belongs to the Italian Rowing Club of Tigre City.
For the rest of the tour, hop on board a vehicle and drive through the northern suburbs of Buenos Aires to get an overview of what life is like in the outskirts of Argentina’s capital city, home to about 25% of the total population of the country. Along the ride, visit several sites, including the fruit market, afterward, we will tour Victorica Avenue, the coastal walk, that borders the Luján River to reach the elegant gardens surrounding the headquarters of the Tigre Deliberative Council and the Tigre Art Museum.

Once the trip is over, get driven back to Buenos Aires. You can be dropped off somewhere on the way to keep exploring the city or taken back to your hotel.
At Signature Tours we consider this to be a must-see in the Buenos Aires area, as it offers you the unique possibility to experience something completely different without having to travel far away from the city.
