I am passionate about discovering history, in the same place where it happened. For that I go around my city, I observe, read and study old photos. And then I prepare a guided tour! On my tours I want tourists to be as surprised by my city as I am. The story is fascinating, and I would love to share it with others!
Let's explore the fabulous Recoleta Cemetery together!
On this tour we will travel in time to the 1880s, when some of Buenos Aires' wealthiest families lived in opulent mansions and began to think about their afterlife. Driven by status and intrigue, they turned to the Recoleta Cemetery, commissioning elaborate mausoleums from the finest European artists to ensure the continuity of their legacy.
We will also discover the secrets of every corner of this iconic cemetery: the story of a couple who immortalized their bitter relationship in stone, the chilling tale of a woman buried alive and, of course, the most visited mausoleum of all, where Evita Perón rests.
Join me on this adventure to learn the fascinating and disturbing stories that make the Recoleta Cemetery a unique place.
Have kids? Bring them along! This is a fun and engaging walking tour for all ages!
Our meeting point will be outside the cemetery, here: https://goo.gl/maps/oyTVwM5UQAyiWhU79. If you come by Uber or taxi, say you are going to the bar “La Biela” in Recoleta (address: Avenida Presidente Manuel Quintana 596, Buenos Aires). Also, to make it easier for you to recognize me at the meeting point, I will be wearing a blue hat!
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
