Hi everybody, this is your tour guide Nani! During our tours you will be inspired to ask any type of question about Buenos Aires, and porteños (the way the local people are called), and my challenge will be to answer in detail all of them, you will learn a lot about the local culture, lifestyle, art, music, sports and food. My solid experience of 15 years in the industry, my academic background (degrees in Economics, Business, Tourism and Languages) and multiple travels around 15 countries are my best credentials. I'm also a polo player and instructor, you can also book to take a polo lesson or watch a polo match on ToursByLocals, and experience the Sport of Kings in the polo capital of the world, you can find them on my offered tours. This job enabled me to meet people from over 100 countries. I am also a host of a travel show broadcasted on streaming, which helps me to stay updated. Last but not least I love not only horses but also dogs, enjoying very much to help animal shelters. My dog is called Charlotte and she is very cute :) Thank you for reading my bio, if you have any question or comment please contact me!

Overview of your Buenos Aires tour

This is the perfect tour in order to learn about Argentine traditions and customs, as we will visit the famous gaucho town. I was born and raised in the city, although I have a strong relationship to the country and small towns, as I have been playing polo for 15 years and I am quite used to the horses and driving out to these areas. We have plenty of time to visit all the highlights of Areco and take great photos in all of them! We will also have a nice lunch break, trying the local food and watching a gaucho show (check dates!). During this tour, we will enjoy walking the cobblestone streets of a small town of Argentina that became internationally renowned by the famous book Don Segundo Sombre written by Ricardo Güiraldes. I will meet you up at your designated place in Buenos Aires and we will go to this historical city located 120 km away-

We had such a wonderful experience with Nani! I contacted him looking for an Argentine gaucho day tour with a special request: being pregnant, I wanted the day to be comfortable and relaxed, while also taking the opportunity to get some beautiful baby bump photos in the Argentine countryside. Nani customized the experience perfectly for us. He was incredibly thoughtful about the pace of the day, the amount of walking involved, and making sure I was comfortable throughout the tour. He even made sure the restaurant staff knew I was pregnant so they could take that into consideration, which I really appreciated. He also made my baby-bump photo mission happen! We had plenty of opportunities to enjoy the scenery and take beautiful pictures without ever feeling rushed. What stood out most was how genuinely attentive and caring Nani was. He didn’t simply adjust an itinerary; he made sure the entire experience worked for me and that we could enjoy the day without worrying about my pregnancy limitations. It became a very special memory for us during an already incredibly special time in our lives. Thank you, Nani, for taking such good care of us and helping us create memories and photos that we’ll someday be able to show our little one. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a personalized experience with someone who genuinely cares about his guests!

Nani was an excellent guide. We are birders and did not want the standard tour. Nani did his best to accommodate our needs. He did show us some very interesting local culture, as well as finding a good birding spot. Overall, a very pleasant day.

We had a wonderful day on the gaucho tour with Nani. Our day started at San Antonio that Arco, which is a beautiful town that should not be missed. We went onto a ranch where we experienced the gaucho show and where the horseback ride took place. The gaucho show was very entertaining, and the food was excellent. Nani is very attentive and being a polo player he was able to explain a lot about horses and horseback riding. I would definitely recommend a tour with Nani.

We had a special day exploring the history of this beautiful country, learning about its literature, traditions, and heritage. In addition to enjoying exquisite food, we visited the river, the church, and the main square. Truly a town worth visiting again! Nani was highly experienced, kind, patient, and well-organized throughout the tour—thank you so much!

Nani knows his stuff! He had an interesting explanation for every question we threw at him. And on the long drive home, we had a spirited discussion about literature, history, society, culture, politics—and of course Eva Peron!
