I had a wonderful time on the tour. Learned a lot about sociology/political history of Brazil and not the typical and somewhat boring textbook trivia you are taught in school. Brazil has a layered history and I was so happy to understand it more with the help of a kind and knowledgable local.

Anyone interested in politics and history should take this tour! An excellent view into current issues facing Mexico City and a chance to see parts of the city outside of typical tourist areas. Gustavo was a wonderful guide, super friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic tour
This afternoon we met up with a local political scientist and journalist named Lila. We walked all around the city with her as she explained the history of Argentina, focusing mostly on the past hundred years but reaching further back when needed for context. She spoke impeccable English and had an incredible depth of knowledge about history, politics, economics, and social issues. She helped us understand not only Buenos Aires and Argentina, but also how the country fits into the larger global picture.
We gained so much perspective from her, including insight into how current hyperinflation and austerity measures under President Milei affect her personally. We also learned about the structure of Argentina’s government, its political parties, and the ways they are similar to and differ meaningfully from our own system.
It was a fascinating and meaningful part of our time in Buenos Aires, and we all came away seeing the city through a more informed and thoughtful lens.
