Treasure Hunt The Lost Message of San Martín

1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: Portuguese and 2 more

You are going to discover the most beautiful spots of Buenos Aires interactively, by solving riddles, challenges, and mysteries. From the meeting point, each challenge will guide you among monuments, palaces, and historical buildings, and you will advance with the clues that the buildings themselves give you: a carved date or a number that no one looks at can be the key to an encoded phrase, which in turn, is the next clue. At each stop we tell you the real story of the place and leave you a curious fact that will surprise you. An ideal plan for going out: you will have fun and get to know the city in another way.
