Practical tips before you book
Before you meet your guide in Buenos Aires, it helps to decide:
- Walking vs private car — distances and traffic feel different by neighborhood (San Telmo, Palermo, Recoleta).
- Ticket strategy — timed entries for headline sights should be booked early in peak months (Mar–May & Sep–Nov).
- Food & energy — tell the guide about kids, elders, allergies and preferred meal length.
- Language expectation — ask whether French (Français) is fluent conversation, not greetings only.
