Inspired Argentina: Buenos Aires
Ali Giaudrone
Available for hire
After immersing myself in this port city on the Río de la Plata, affectionately known as "BA" by locals, I crafted this guide for a friend with food, culture, and outdoor enthusiasts in mind.
Buenos Aires is a very walkable, though sprawling, European-feeling South American city made up of many distinct neighborhoods. Among them: trendy Palermo, Parisian-like Recoleta, Spanish Plaza de Mayo, bohemian San Telmo, vibrant Boca recalls Southern Italy. Italian, Spanish, and French heritage is tasted in its love for pizza, cheese, bread, meat, wine, and coffee.
The guide includes both affordable and world-class restaurants and hotels, but mostly, find luxury in slow travel where you truly get to know the culture.
Virtual explorers and trip planners alike, explore Buenos Aires with this interactive guide. Check out what to SEE + DO, where to EAT + DRINK, places to STAY + REST, and ways to COME + GO around Argentina's largest city.
In addition to cultural immersion, this comprehensive guide provides:
1. Interactive map
2. Portable, mobile-first format
3. "Remixable" make-your-own itinerary
4. "Living" guide that receives updates
This guide is intended for you to make your own. Explore at your own pace within your available timeframe. Visit all of the sites or just those that call to you. Skip around or simply glance on the way to your next meal.
As a travel expert and creative, I built AMG Inspired to design quality architecture and support sustainable tourism, defined as “tourism that respects both local people and the traveler, cultural heritage and the environment.”

ABOUT
Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina, a land known for grilled meat, wine, gauchos, and tango dancing.
A vibrant, modern city, BA sits along the shore of Río de la Plata, the widest (and perhaps proportionately the shortest) river in the world separating Argentina and Uruguay, into which the Tigre Delta waters flow. One of the world’s largest deltas named for the jaguars that once roamed, this vast sedimentary wetland splits after flowing from the Río Paraná into several smaller rivers to form countless forest- and grassland-covered islands.
Bring cash, as exchange rates in the city are twice as good as the bank or ATM. We found several hotels that exchanged money and some restaurants took smaller notes, but be sure to trade no more than $100 or so at a time since the rates are so volatile. Then pay in Argentinian pesos as much as possible.
Porteños (locals from this port city) are super kind and generous. I was impressed by their care for stray animals and street beggars alike. They seemed to appreciate life, despite hardships, and know how to celebrate. "La vida es buena," I heard frequently. Life is good. It reminded me to cherish every moment and not take any of it for granted.
