Buenos Aires: Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour

About this experience

Book Buenos Aires hop-on hop-off bus tickets and get around Argentina's capital without planning a single taxi. Choose a pass for 24, 48 or 72 hours, ride an open-top bus with a live guide on board, and hop off at any of the 27 stops on the route as often as you like. Buses come round every 20 to 30 minutes, so you can linger at Recoleta, the Teatro Colón or the waterfront and simply catch a later bus. What will you see on the route? The circuit links the city's best known neighbourhoods and landmarks. Stops include Recoleta Cemetery, where many visitors pay their respects at the tomb of Eva Perón, and the Teatro Colón, one of the world's great opera houses. Between stops you ride past grand avenues, historic squares and busy shopping streets, with plenty of chances for photos from the open top deck. The route is a good way to understand how the different barrios fit together before you go back to explore your favourites on foot. Guides and commentary on board Each bus carries a live guide who speaks three languages and shares stories and anecdotes about the places you pass. You also get an audio guide in nine languages, including Spanish, English, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese and Russian, with free headphones. Together they explain Argentina's history and culture, from the founding of the city to the tango halls and football rivalries it is known for today. How do Buenos Aires bus tickets work? There are separate passes for Argentinian residents and for visitors from abroad, so choose the one that matches your nationality when you book. Your voucher arrives by email straight away. Show it on your phone with a valid photo ID when you redeem it, and check the voucher for the exact redemption point. Once your pass is active you can hop on and off at any stop until it expires. Buses run as scheduled even when it rains. Who is the bus tour best for? The tour suits first time visitors who want an overview of a large, spread out city, and travellers with only a day or two who want to see as much as possible. The buses are wheelchair accessible. A 48 or 72 hour pass gives you time to combine the ride with longer visits, such as a stadium tour or an evening tango show, without rushing. If you only have one day, ride the full circuit once to get your bearings, then use the rest of your pass to return to the two or three neighbourhoods you liked most. Keep your voucher and photo ID with you, as you may need them when you board. Make more of your Buenos Aires visit Hop off in Recoleta and join a guided Recoleta Cemetery tour to hear the stories behind the tombs. Football fans can add La Bombonera and the Boca Juniors Museum tour, and in the evening a tango show at El Viejo Almacén is a classic way to end the day.
