Overview
La Boca is one of Buenos Aires’ most iconic neighborhoods, but behind its colors, there is much more than tourist postcards. On this walk, we explore the real history of the neighborhood:
The arrival of immigrants, the port, art, football, and how all of this shaped an intense, creative, and deeply porteño identity. We talk about art, immigration, football, tango, politics, and everyday life, connecting places with the people and stories that made them meaningful. What we’ll see:
• Fundación Proa and the contemporary art scene
• Benito Quinquela Martín and La Boca’s artistic legacy
• The old Transbordador Bridge
• The Volunteer Firefighters of La Boca
• Boca Juniors and La Bombonera (outside)
• Caminito and its lesser-known stories. Why choose this tour ✔ Passionate and approachable local guides
✔ Clear, engaging storytelling
✔ Designed to help you understand Buenos Aires, not just see it
