Learn the basics of Argentine tango in a private one-hour lesson with an English or Spanish instructor in Buenos Aires.
“Rodrigo was excellent and taught us basic Tango steps in such a short time. We had no previous experience in dancing the Tango but with a few hiccups we came through it and Rodrigo captured us dancing Tango relatively well for first timers 😁 Rodrigo's passion and love for Tango was clear to see, you could visibly see him feeling it when teaching the steps in time with the music. Was a great way to start out day and we may even take in a few classes when we head home if my wife has her way 😜”

Combine a private tango lesson with a hands-on Argentine cooking class, wine, empanadas, and dulce de leche in Buenos Aires.
“First, very nice man and nice tango teacher. It would have been a great experience except we had transportation issues getting there and then found out it was not actually a private class. It was our last night in Argentina and we chose this particular class because it was listed as private and we wanted the time alone with our adult kids…when we got there we found out there were two other couples. Although they were nice people and Saul was kind…it was not what was advertised. The teacher stayed extra for us since we were late which was very kind…but if you want a private class make sure and…”
Make Argentine empanadas, taste Malbec and Cabernet wines, and learn about Buenos Aires food culture in a small Palermo class.
“Good Saturday afternoon. We enjoyed our empanadas cooking class very much. First, the venue. Very clean, lots of space and light, and easily accessible. Second, staff. The level of instruction and background information around the history of empanadas and Argentinean wine varietals was very insightful. Third, the empanadas were great and that the group made them made the meal that much more memorable. Fourth, the manner in which the 2.5-hour session was nicely structured. The structure promoted conversation amongst the guests. And that the group was relatively small (ie7 persons) made conversation easy. In summary, Signature tour has great staff, a good product and a venue that lends itself ...”

Spend a day at an Argentine estancia watching professional polo, learning to ride and play, and sharing an asado with wine near Buenos Aires.
“We had a wonderful day with Juanse as our host. Whilst I chose not to ride, my travel partner, who is an experienced rider had a fantastic time watching the morning chuckas, learning the basics and then getting to play some polo with the group and the support staff. He specifically noted how well the day was run to include people with varied (including none) riding experience. Lunch was great - lots of various meats, veggies and wine or juice etc. as a non rider I really enjoyed the park like grounds, the birds, watching the games, and the dogs - bring your binoculars. All round positive and fun day.”
