Correcto
Nos pareció correcto y bien organizado. La parada en Galerías Pacífico fue lo que más nos gustó. Éramos varios y no alcanzaron los asientos juntos. Recomendable en general.

Ótimo atendimento
Reservamos de última hora e foi um acerto. Pegamos um guia excelente, cheio de histórias e bom humor. O detalhe de tarifas exclusivas para passageiros estrangeiros faz diferença. Uma experiência que vale cada minuto.

Delivered everything it promised and then some. We went back to Galerías Pacífico on our own the next day. Having open top double-decker buses with air conditioning and sunroof makes all the difference. One of the best things we have booked online.

Uma experiência completa. Voltamos a Recoleta no dia seguinte por conta própria. Terminamos com uma ideia clara de como a cidade é organizada. Logística afiada, dá para ver que fazem isso todo dia. Obrigado pelo dia que nos proporcionaram.

Buena elección si es tu primera vez en Buenos Aires. El guía era bueno, aunque hubiera preferido más tiempo para preguntas. Todo muy bien señalizado y con el personal atento. Usamos dos Navegaciones de 40 minutos en el Río de la Plata todo el tiempo y funcionó perfecto. Una de las paradas estaba cerrada ese día y no lo avisaron. Igual lo volvería a hacer.

Impecável
Faria de novo sem pensar duas vezes. Pelo preço que pagamos, rende muito. Trocamos a data dois dias antes e não houve problema. Passar por Floralis Genérica já valeu o tour todo. Se estiverem em Buenos Aires, não percam.
