What you’ll do

Begin with a pickup by your guide from your centrally located Buenos Aires hotel between 5:30 and 6 p.m. for a short drive to San Telmo Market. Walk through the bustling alleyways past stalls of artifacts and foods central to the city’s hallmark porteña culture, the port culture in which Buenos Aires residents take pride. Make your way to Coffee Town, a popular café located in the market, to charge your night out with a coffee tasting. Learn about the coffee process from bean to brew and sample artisanal coffee from all over the world. Leave the market and walk one block to Sagardi Restaurant for a wine tasting at about 7:30 p.m. Sample a malbec, bonarda, and cabernet sauvignon from the Mendoza area of Uco Valley under guidance of a sommelier. Pair the wines with pintxos vascos, bite-sized sandwiches or toasts topped with meat, cheese, vegetables, and spreads. Continue to the neighborhood hotspot Pulpería Quilapán, a combination store and tavern located in a 300-year-old house. Take a guided tour of the building and learn about its history from the 18th century to today, including displays of historical objects. Appetite piqued, enjoy a dinner of asado, a traditional Argentinian barbecue, with a beverage and dessert. Watch a typical live show after dinner and get dropped off back your hotel by 11 p.m.
