Engaging Tour! - This was honestly the best tour of my life! The tour guide (I think Marianne) was funny and engaging. She told great stories about some of the most famous mausoleums. The cemetery was beautiful. Keep in mind this tour doesn’t include the entrance fee which you pay for separately!

Excellent! - I really enjoyed the free walking tour of Recoleta Cemetery with Mariano as our guide. The tour lasted around two hours and was both informative and engaging. Mariano clearly had a deep knowledge of Argentine history, and his storytelling made the experience even more interesting. He had great diction and was easy to understand throughout the tour.

Who would say that visiting a cemetery would be such an interesting adventure!? - Guide Claudio made this experience very enjoyable and interesting. Very willing not only to tell the different stories that the cemetery houses, but also to answer each of the questions that the group asked. It was such a good experience that we felt there was a lot to discover. We highly recommend it and would certainly repeat it in the future.
