Plan: 'Basico'

Time in Buenos Aires: 1 week or less

Below are some recommendations of things you should do while traveling in Buenos Aires. Exact names of restaurants, stores and bars are best to be sought after from locals or hotel staff, for the convenience of location sake or until they pay us some money. Enjoy-

Sites you must see	Barrio	Comments
Recoleta Cemetery	Recoleta	Open until 6 p.m., free admission
Obelisco and surrounding area (Florida Street)	Centro	Avoid 5-6 p.m. traffic
Parque Tres de Febrero and the Palermo Lagos	Palermo	This place is wonderful for a breath of fresh air, be sure to see the Rosedal or “International Rose Garden” (Avenida Sarmiento y Libertador)
Antique Fair “La Feria de San Telmo”	San Telmo	Every Sunday this neighborhood closes off a 10 block rectangle shaped area that is chalked full of antiques, tango dancers, street performers and more. (Start at Brazil y Defensa)
Street side coffee	Palermo	Walk around Palermo Viejo and take a break to people watch and enjoy a nice espresso or café con leche under an umbrella.
El Caminito	La Boca	A small 3 block area caters to curious tourists. Bright colors decorate the housing, artisans line the streets and some tango street performers can be found here daily.

Night Time:

Sites you must see	Barrio	Comments
Steak dinner with red wine	Puerto Madero	You can find a nice steak dinner anywhere in the city, but the best steak houses are based upon opinion. Be sure to try a couple of Malbecs while you’re here.
Club or Super Club	Palermo, Belgrano	There are many clubs through out the city, but a few super clubs that line the river in between Belgrano and Palermo that are worth the wait in “Costanera Norte”.
Bar Hop	Centro	There is a cluster of bars in Centro that are Irish themed. This area tends to attract both foreigners and Argentines that like foreigners. Start around Reconquista and Marcelo T. Alevear.
Live music	Anywhere	Check our calendar for jazz, tango, electronica and much more.
Plaza Serrano	Palermo Viejo	A roundabout full of bars and fun. (Honduras and Serrano)
Tango Show	San Telmo, Centro	Everyone should see a tango show while they are here. It’s a touristy thing to do, but its worth it.
