The perfect introduction to South America – How to enjoy a perfect 3 days in Buenos Aires itinerary!
Tango and steak, Malbec wine and colourful houses, sprawling theatres and tree-lined avenues; Buenos Aires is a city that truly captured our hearts!
After almost three years in Asia we flew to the other side of the world to take on a new adventure. Our interest in South America had been growing more and more every day, and we couldn’t wait to finally get the chance to explore it.
Our first port of entry and subsequent introduction to South America was Buenos Aires, Argentina’s eclectic and vibrant capital city.
We flew from Australia to Argentina via Auckland, which is of course a huge haul. We did it in comfort though, by flying with Emirates from Sydney to Auckland, then Air New Zealand to Buenos Aires, with a few hours spent in the Air New Zealand Lounge in Auckland.

A quick search of things to do in Buenos Aires quickly revealed a whole smorgasbord of activities, and it’s quite easy to get overwhelmed when trying to choose what to see.
We’ve now spent a total of 4 weeks in Buenos Aires, and it’s still not enough to fully explore a place of this size. Still, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try on a shorter time frame!
If you’ve only given yourself a limited time in the city and aren’t sure how many days to spend in Buenos Aires, it’s important to prioritise what you want to do, and where you want to stay.
This article will give you a great understanding of what to see on a 3 days in Buenos Aires itinerary.

We had heard a lot about how immense Buenos Aires was, and after trawling all the information on the TripAdvisor forums we discovered that the neighbourhood we stayed in would have a huge impact on our experience.
There’s Palermo Soho and Palermo Hollywood, Recoleta, San Telmo, La Boca and a whole range of others that sounded interesting, yet hard to narrow down.
La Boca is most famous for the colourful buildings and tango shows, but after chatting to locals we realised that it’s actually a place that’s better to visit rather than stay in. It can get quite sketchy at night.
The first time that we visited…
