Navigation in Tigre - Buenos Aires - Semi private tour
Description
There is a minimum booking for 2 persons, single riders should ask for possibility before booking. My name is Enrique, and I am passionate about the delta of Tigre, where I have been navigating for more than 45 years now. My knowledge of the delta encouraged me to offer this tour, which is the semi-private speedboat tour with the longest navigation time available in Tigre. I want to share my passion for the delta with my guests and make them feel unique in an unique place, at peace with nature and its marvels. I love receiving visitors from all over the world and share their travel experiences as well. My guests will be pampered to get full satisfaction from the tour, my aim is to make an unforgettable day for them. Ocasionally, the tour will be performed by the co-host, my 38-year-old son Martin, who is also an expert driver and skipper and has a deep knowledge of the delta and its peoples.

Itinerary
A minimum of 2 persons per booking is required, single riders should ask for possibility before booking. You will navigate in my boat, through wide rivers and narrow streams that traditional excursions do not reach. We will navigate 2 hours in my boat, enjoying an included snack (cookie and bottled water). You will have fun and relax in a safe environment. With the naked eye you will be able to observe native birds and animals, plants, flowers and trees in detail. In the warm months you can take a refreshing swim in the rivers and streams. If on the day scheduled for the Experience there is rain or bad weather that prevents navigation, we will reschedule the tour for another day according to your possibilities or we will refund the money, at your choice. Ocasionally, the tour can be performed by the co-host, Martin, the 37-year-old son of Enrique, who is also an experienced driver and skipper and very knowledgeable on the delta of Tigre.

Our trip with Enrique through the Tigre Delta was a unique and beautiful experience. He took all the hassle out of starting the tour by picking us up at our lodging and driving us to the marina (which had his motorboat ready and waiting). His small boat is perfect for exploring the delta because he can go down the smaller channels that are more scenic and peaceful than the large channels. Enrique is very knowledgeable about the area, and he pointed out all kinds of interesting things along the way, answering our questions, and explaining what life along the Delta is really like. He is also a very kind and caring person, very easy to be with and to talk to, like being with an old friend. The whole trip was lovely and very relaxing. We highly recommend this tour!
Thank you Karen for your most kind evaluation and comments. It's been great having you and David onboard. I'm very happy that you enjoyed the tour. Best wishes!🤗
The tour with Enriqur was a pleasure- he punctually picked us up at the hotel with a nice car- he showed us on the way a lot of BA. We entered a nice motorboat. It was a romantique pathway through the little river. Absolutely recommandable!
When investigating the way to explore the Tigers delta, I found 2 ways. The cheaper way to be in big boats which stays on the main channel, had to take the train to get there and back, some don’t have any explanations in English. Or a more expensive way, which includes transportation from our accommodation, navigation in smaller waterways where the big boats can’t go. We chose Henrique’s tour and he delivered what was described. Very friendly guy, small group of 4, small boat, he took us in beautiful waterways and described well the landscape. Communication was excellent. We moved the time of the tour because of the weather. Henrique will not take you out unless he is sure for you to have a great time. While transporting us to the marina , he also pointed out information in BA as well as recommendations. Yes, more expensive but very enjoyable and informative so we would definitely recommend it.
Friendly and very local host with per perfect English. We were then able to navigate shallow channels for the motorboat, which are not accessible to the larger boats. Great unforgettable experience! Let's do it again the next time we stay!
My husband and I had a great day in the Tigre Delta with Martin, who was an excellent tour guide. He picked us up at our hotel and handled all of the logistics perfectly. We really enjoyed his company on our private boat tour. We learned a lot and the day was very relaxing.
Super relaxing boat ride in a uniquely beautiful place. Great way to get out of the city and see a different way of life. Our guide was flawless.
Well organized. Guide very informative on the trip to the marina. The trip was entirely on the water with many areas of the delta explored and provided many photo opportunities. Also learned a lot about the delta life and society. Personable guide with fluent english.
My husband and I recently went on this trip with Martin. We had a spectacular day. Martin arrived promptly. He was friendly, courteous and easy to speak with. He was most enjoyable company. He drove the car and the boat safely and patiently and told us all about the local life along the rivers. It was a peaceful and serene way to spend a day away from the buzz and noise of the city. The boat was supremely comfortable and we sat at the front getting great views all the time. Martin provided some water and a sweet snack which was much appreciated. All in all this is highly recommended.
Martin was our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, informative, and friendly. He was also a very capable boat captain. He went out of his way to make our experience wonderful. We recommend him very highly.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience through the delta. Martin was an excellent host, sharing information and answering our questions. His navigation skills were great ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey. I have heard mixed reviews on the Delta experience but would highly recommend this operator.
