About This Tour
Go beyond the colorful façades of Caminito and discover the real La Boca. This is not a standard tourist tour; it’s an anthropological exploration of one of Buenos Aires’s most iconic and contradictory neighborhoods. We will delve into the past and present of this vibrant district, from its origins as a gritty port town for millions of immigrants to its current status as a world-famous, Instagrammable attraction. Be prepared to do more than just listen; this is an interactive experience where you are encouraged to ask questions, share your perspectives, and discuss the fascinating forces that have shaped La Boca. Who were the immigrants who built La Boca, and who are its inhabitants today? How did Club Atlético Boca Juniors become a global phenomenon? How has gentrification and tourism changed the neighborhood’s identity? Join us for a walk that will change how you see Buenos Aires. Book your spot now and uncover the story behind the postcard!
