I had a tour that not only met, but exceeded my expectations. Not only was Pat super knowledgeable, but very personable. I was on the tour alone which sometimes can be a bit awkward with someone you don't know, BUT within 5 minutes I felt very comfortable and had the best day exploring El Tigre. I was discouraged by many to not take a tour and to do this on my own and I'm SO glad that I spent the money and did the tour! It was worth every penny!

More than met my expectations.

I had a compelling need to experience the Rio de la Plata while I was in Buenos Aires. I had a very short window to fit in this trip and the guide was able to accommodate me. Many thanks for that. Seeing BA from the water makes sense of it, and the islands of the Tigre Delta were fascinating.

Boat trip was great and aircon bus ride back to BA great on a hot day.

Emy the guide was great. Pick-up from hotel punctual, but over a half hour wait at wharf waiting to get on boat was totally uncalled for as boat was there at wharf and I could see no reason for delay. Boat trip great - Delta so interesting. Aircon bus very comfortable on a hot day. Stop off at market total waste of time as market boring. The church also an unnecesssy stop - hardly a church of note. But on the whole well worthwhile for the boat ride on the Delta.
