Good day out away from Buenos Aires city

We were lucky that we were the only ones on Natalia's tour that day and so she was able to be a bit flexible in missing out places we'd been to before and spend more time elsewhere. The boat and train rides is a good combination

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re happy to hear Natalia could personalize your tour and that you enjoyed the mix of boat and train rides. Hope to see you again! Tangol Tours

Pintoresco e interesante tour!!

Guía turístico muy amable y con mucho conocimiento. Ella hablan inglés bien - muy útil ya que nuestro español es mal. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. She speaks English well, which is helpful since we don’t speak much Spanish. We got to see a lot of very interesting buildings and areas in a short time, which would have taken a long time to research and organize on our own. Highly recommended! Altamente recomendada!

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour and that our guide’s knowledge and English skills made your experience even better. Tangol Tours

Good tour activities but not good customer support by tour company

Inadequate communication by tour company regarding meeting time and location of the end point of the tour resulting in inconvenience and additional cost. The boat ride through the delta was very interesting as well as relaxing. The other activities in this tour represented the area. Our tour guide was pleasant and helpful. However, I would not necessarily recommend this tour company. We were told to report at 9:15 AM and our tour guide was told to report at 9:45 AM at the meeting point. This was very inconvenient as we got up early to taxi to the meeting point from our hotel and we were left without guidance for over 30 minutes. At the end of the tour, we were left over 12 miles from the designated end point. Rather than ending the tour at the designated point, within walking distance from our hotel, we were forced to take a taxi at our own expense for a 14.6 mile trip across Buenos Aires. Our tour guide kindly assisted in securing a taxi for a fair rate, but it was an expense we had not anticipated. The change in the end point resulted from construction work and inability of the train to access this specific area. However, the tour company should have been aware of the issue since it was an ongoing project over a considerable time frame. The tour company should have notified us of the change in final destination, the additional distance that had to be traveled at our own expense — or provided alternative transport to the designated ending point.

Operator response

We appreciate you sharing your feedback on your recent tour of the Tigre Delta. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the boat ride and the friendliness of our guide. We deeply regret the inconveniences you experienced due to the lack of communication regarding changes to the tour. We understand your frustration with the initial wait at the meeting point and the unexpected expense for the return trip to your hotel. We are reviewing our communication protocols to ensure that any changes to the itinerary, such as modifications to the arrival point due to construction, are clearly and promptly communicated to passengers. We appreciate your understanding and hope to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Cancelled !

They canceled 1/2 hour before the trip. No reason given. I booked 6 months ago. Not happy. It was confirmed the night before

Operator response

Dear Sue Frawley, We deeply regret the inconvenience caused by the cancellation of your activity. We understand your frustration, especially after having booked so far in advance. We would like to explain that the cancellation was due to an exceptional situation: the assigned guide woke up with a fever, which prevented us from carrying out the activity as planned. We offered you the option to reschedule the activity or choose another alternative, but since this was not accepted, we proceeded with the full refund, which has already been processed. We appreciate your understanding and, once again, we apologize for not being able to provide the experience you expected. If you wish to enjoy our services in the future, we would be delighted to welcome you. Kind regards Tangol Tours

Nice tour outside BA

Nice and interesting tour. Brenda, our tour guide, was fantastic. Very friendly, knowledgeable and we learn a lot about the places visited and Argentinian culture in general. Lunch was delicious, ferry and train rides were both good and easy to take.
