Buenos Aires City Tour

We were picked up at our hotel by a bus, to go on a city tour. Our tour guide was bilingual, and very good. He was even pleased that Richard corrected his English.

We started at the main square with the Cathedral and the Casa Rosada (their White House). At the Cathedral, we saw a man restoring one of the mosaics on the floor.

We drove by the famous Boca Juniors soccer club, and then stopped in the Boca tourist area. This is a colorful and historic area, but very poor.


Marianne danced a little with one of the young men offering to take a photo. Towards the end of the tour, we were offered a memento of our tour, which we could not turn down.

Large parts of the city are modern and impressive, other parts are impressive, but now run down.

We had a nice late lunch at Sanjuanito's restaurant.
