Day 02 Design Your Day Buenos Aires
A chance to see what makes this sophisticated metropolis tick. Choose two of the following four half day activities: Start the day in traditional Porteno style with coffee and a pastry at Tortoni, one of the city’s true icons then a short ride on ‘el Subte’ (the subway) to the Plaza de Mayo, the city’s historical and political heart. Wander past the Casa Rosada (Presidential Palace), the city hall and the cathedral and on further to the narrow cobbled streets of bohemian San Telmo.
