Description

Discover the Secrets of Recoleta Cemetery! Step into the heart of Buenos Aires’ most iconic resting place and travel back to the 1880s, an era when the city's wealthiest families built palaces for the living—and monuments for the dead. Driven by power, prestige, and a touch of vanity, they commissioned Europe’s greatest artists to design stunning mausoleums that would stand the test of time. On this small-group tour (never more than 12 people), we’ll uncover the fascinating and eerie stories hidden behind every marble facade. Hear about: - A couple whose bitterness was etched in stone for eternity. - The haunting legend of a woman buried alive. - And, of course, the most visited tomb of all—Evita Perón’s final resting place. Perfect for history lovers, curious minds, and families alike, this walking tour brings to life the legends, art, and intrigue that make Recoleta Cemetery unlike any other place in the world. Have kids? Bring them along! This is an engaging and unforgettable experience for all ages.
