🇦🇷 Buenos Aires: 3 Days in the Paris of South America

A city where European elegance meets Latin passion, Buenos Aires is a sensory journey through cobblestone streets, smoky parillas, and sultry tango halls. Whether you're a history lover, foodie, or street art fan — this city delivers. 📅 Itinerary Day 1: Classic Buenos Aires Start at Plaza de Mayo, home to the iconic Casa Rosada. Walk down Avenida de Mayo to Café Tortoni — a vintage café since 1858. Explore San Telmo: cobbled streets, antique shops, and the famous San Telmo Market. Evening tango dinner at El Viejo Almacén or La Ventana. Day 2: Art & Culture Visit Recoleta Cemetery (don’t miss Eva Perón’s grave) and explore Recoleta's parks and museums. Head to Palermo Soho for street art, boutique shopping, and café hopping. Sunset drinks at a rooftop bar like Alvear Roof Bar. Nightlife: Experience the Palermo bar scene — it's alive until the early morning. Day 3: La Boca & the Local Vibe Morning walk in La Boca: Visit colorful Caminito Street, see tango performers, and check out Boca Juniors Stadium. Lunch at a local parrilla (Argentine grill). Try asado, choripán, and empanadas. Evening ferry ride on Puerto Madero or a calm stroll along the waterfront. 🏨 Accommodation Palo Santo Hotel (Palermo) – Eco-luxury in the trendiest area. Loi Suites Recoleta – Classic and close to key cultural spots. Budget: Viajero Buenos Aires Hostel – Great vibes and central location. 🍴 Food Recommendations Don Julio (Palermo) – Legendary steakhouse. Reserve early! 🥩 El Preferido de Palermo – Local dishes with a modern twist. Santos Manjares – Affordable, great steaks, and friendly atmosphere. Heladería Rapa Nui – Try the dulce de leche ice cream! Bonus: Grab a medialuna + café breakfast like a true porteño. 📌 Tips Learn a few Spanish phrases — English isn’t widely spoken outside tourist zones. Taxis are cheap, but Uber/Cabify is more reliable. Always carry cash — many places still prefer pesos. Watch for Sunday markets in San Telmo and Recoleta. Buenos Aires is safe in most areas, but stay aware in crowded places. #buenosaires #travelargentina
