Buenos Aires In Depth with a Day in Tigre
Stay in Palermo. Spend four days exploring the city neighborhood by neighborhood, plus a day trip by train to the Tigre Delta for boating.
Compared with the three-day plan, this adds the Palermo parks, Palacio Barolo, the Congress and the Museum of Modern Art. It also leaves a day for Tigre: about an hour by train, then a boat through the delta waterways and the fruit port market. Staying in Palermo makes dinner and drinks in the evening convenient. Suited to first-time or repeat visitors who want to slow down and experience local life.
Tigre is crowded on weekends, so take boat trips on weekdays if possible.
