Good tour!

Great tour! Well worth the money. Jimena was a treasure trove of interesting information! Lots of interesting history about early (and not so early) Buenos Aires.
Recoleta Cemetery, Better with a Guide
Gina_D, Apr 2025
The Recoleta Cemetery is a "must-see" and a fascinating way to learn about the history of Argentina. Our guide, Jimena, was very knowledgeable and a good storyteller. Although the memorials are interesting to see, a guide is absolutely necessary in order to gain a full understanding of the symbolism and historical relevance.
Such great story telling...

Good Tour, recommended.

Only thing I'd advise is make sure you've bought your ticket before turning up. I made a late booking and just managed to get my ticket before the tour start - the online process was quite drawn out. You can buy online or onsite at the ticket office, just do it in time so you're not holding up the rest of the tour. The tour was excellent, the cemetery is well worth a visit. Our guide was Jimena and she is clearly an expert on the cemetery. Good stories and well told!
