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. Take in the views on a boat ride, shop for local products at a market, and head to Victorica Avenue, the coastal walk. After hotel pickup, hop on a cruise on the widest river in the world while getting spectacular views of the Buenos Aires skyline from the waters of the Río de la Plata (La Plata River). After one hour on the river, arrive at the Parana River’s Delta, a place that truly feels like a fantasy land. Once in the delta, the boat ride continues through a series of narrow channels and islands, 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. 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, a type of bazaar where locals shop for home goods and where you can find some authentic souvenirs. Head to Victorica Avenue the coastal walk that borders the Luján River to reach the elegant gardens that surround the headquarters of the Tigre Deliberative Council and the Tigre Art Museum. On the side of the road, there are bars, restaurants, grills and ice cream parlors that give shape to a gastronomic center where calm reigns, an atmosphere that replicates the serenity transmitted by the open view of the river just steps from Tigre’s downtown. Once the trip is over, get driven back to Buenos Aires. You can choose to be dropped off somewhere on the way to keep exploring the city or you can be taken back to your hotel.

For approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes, you will enjoy a sailing trip. You will admire the breathtaking views of downtown Buenos Aires, Jorge Newbery Airport, Ciudad Universitaria and the northern areas of the city, such as San Isidro, Olivos and Martinez. You'll also pass by the Cathedral and the San Isidro Ravines, before entering the first section of the Delta. We will sail along the San Antonio and Sarmiento rivers, passing by highlights such as the Casa Sarmiento Museum, typical local recreation and paradors, private homes and the lush vegetation of the Delta. Free time will be given for personal activities. Then, passengers will travel by bus back to Buenos Aires accompanied by a guide who will tell them about the history of Tigre, the main points of the city, including the Paseo Victorica, the museums, the casino and the Puerto de Frutos. On the way back, you will visit the northern area of Buenos Aires, where the President's residence is located (La Quinta de Olivos).

Ok, so you’ve been here a few days and the “Ciudad de la Furia” or “City of Fury” is beginning to drain you a bit, understandably. Why not treat yourself to a break from the chaos? Join us as we escape, pedaling North through the woods of Palermo until finally embarking onto the Tigre river and heading deep into the Delta. If you’re craving a breath of fresh air, a long, peaceful cycle, views of stunning, historical estates and summer homes, a paddle through narrow, tranquil waterways, and an epic Argentine ¨Asado¨ lunch (on an island, no less – there are more than 300 out there)… what are you waiting for? Spend a full-day exploring with us on an excursion that incorporates the bike-train-kayak trifecta you’ve always had a hankering for! Vamos – come ride the Tiger with us!
