The Women Behind Puerto Madero’s Streets: A Self Guided Tour

1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English and 3 more

Buenos Aires’ most modern neighborhood has centuries of fascinating history beneath its sleek glass façades.

On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll hear about the failed harbor project that was Puerto Madero, and find out how it became a vibrant urban district. You’ll also learn about the remarkable women who shaped Argentina’s history, and whose names now grace every street in this unique part of the city.

The tour starts at the Reserva Ecológica Costanera Sur, a green oasis that was once destined for urban development. You’ll walk alongside peaceful lagoons teeming with wildlife and explore Micaela Bastidas Park.

As you cross boulevards named after pioneering women, you’ll hear about revolutionary heroines, Latin America’s first female voter, and Argentina’s women’s rights movement.
