About this tour

Argentina is renowned for its tango, its traditional barbecue, and—more recently—its recurrent financial crises. Yet, at the close of the 19th century, it was one of the wealthiest nations in the world. Today, it doesn’t even rank among the top 60 economies. How did a country with such promise experience such a dramatic fall from grace? What series of events led Argentina to its ongoing economic challenges?

Join us for an interactive storytelling walk through the city, blending documentary-style analysis with the thrill of street exploration.

Our impartial approach examines both social and political dynamics, tracing their evolution from the birth of the modern state to the present day. This allows you to form your own insights and opinions about Argentina’s complex history.

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.
