What people say

"Puerto Madero, literally meaning 'wooden port,' is Buenos Aires' newest neighborhood, and it's obvious. Each side of the river port is lined with fancy restaurants, cafes (including several Starbucks), and places to have a happy hour beer while looking at the water. On the east side of Puerto Madero, you'll see glass covered skyscrapers and apartment buildings. The apartments are fancy, and are generally priced in USD. If you keep going east from Puerto Madero, you'll reach the Costanera Sur and the Reserva Ecologica if you're in the mood for a nice walk. There are a couple restaurants and nightclubs that sit on the water right in the center of the port. The most famous bridge here is the Puente de la Mujer. "

"Embarking on our tour of BA, we chose to kickstart the adventure in Puerto Madero, due to our hotel's strategic location, and I wholeheartedly endorse it as a central hub for city exploration. Distinguished by its contemporary allure and soaring skyscrapers, Puerto Madero captivated me with its pristine ambiance and a sense of security. What truly fascinated me was its harmonious blend of modernity while paying a respectful nod to the city's rich history."

"The most expensive neighbourhood in Buenos Aires. Having the view of the rivers and it's canals, Puerto Madero, is one of the trendiest and more popular place in Buenos Aires. You can find a lot of sky bars here with amazing views, good restaurants and bars. The high society of Buenos Aires live here, so that makes it pretty safe, even to walk at night. Just be sure to stay in the Puerto Madero area. "

Mentioned in these guides

I have been living in Argentina for the past year (plus 5 months in Buenos Aires back in 2005). This is one of my favorite cities in the entire world, and I want to share with you what makes it so great. This 10 day itinerary begins on a Friday morning, and is arranged according to market schedules, or other events in the city that fall on particular days. But you can certainly do the activities out of order, and fit them to your schedule as needed. I have planned this 10-day itinerary to allow you to maximize your days, and hours in this amazing city, but still allow you to enjoy the small moments without feeling overwhelmed, and get rest when needed. I have spent around 100 hours researching, writing descriptions to give detailed information of every place mentioned in this itinerary, visiting and testing out each day; they are all genuine recommendations. I have carefully planned out and timed each activity, including transportation and time moving between sites. I have also linked related articles and videos from my blog and YouTube channel. This itinerary will provide you not only with daily activities, but information on how to get the best exchange rate, how to stay safe, and information for transportation- how to get from spot to spot, so you can put as little time into planning as possible. Let me do that for you! :) This is not the ideal itinerary for those seeking the nightlife and parties. It is full of morning, daytime, and evening activities (with a few optional activities that go into the night) to help you get to know the culture of Buenos Aires and Argentina. It does not include nightclubs. This is a great itinerary if you are coming to Buenos Aires for the first time and you want to see all the important places, along with a few extra gems. This can also serve if you live in the city but have friends and family coming to visit. I've got it all planned out for you! I have included a lot of walking in this itinerary, though I have attempted to concentrate each day in one particular area of the city whenever possible. However, the city is full of transportation options if you prefer less steps due to accessability issues, or fatigue. I strongly suggest reading through the entire itinerary at the beginning of the week in case there are places where you need to make a reservation. If so, it will be listed at the top of each day.
