Sad and Unsatisfied!!

We did not get to go on our tour. We had an error in the date and no assistance or refund was ever considered. We were basically told too bad, you loose!!! We are very disappointed with Viator who usually does a better job.

Operator response

Hi Rosalyn, thank you for posting a review. We regret to hear that your experience was not as you expected. We always honour our bookings but you phoned us with less than 24 hours telling us that nobody has picked you up when the booking was booked by you for the next day. We offered assistance and told you we could provide the service on the date you booked it but you said you wanted it right now (the day before) and it was impossible we could get a guide and transportation with less than 30 minutes. We made our best but you did not provide more options than right now. Cordially, Carlos.

Excellent tour!

Elan was thorough and knowledgeable. Even though it was Saturday and we couldn’t enter some places, I felt that a learned so much and seeing the actual sites was not so necessary to the overall great content.

Very good tour and interesting tour

We wanted to get to know the Jewish temples and neighborhoods in Buenos Aires and we were lucky enough to hire this ride. Marta went to pick us up at the hotel and took us to a little tour of the city center and the Eleven Quarter, one of the centers of our community. He told us about the history of immigrants and showed us different synagogues, including the Liberty Temple. Very friendly and professional guide.
