BA to Tigre: Private Bike, Kayak & Argentine BBQ Full-Day Tour

4.9
(38 reviews)
Buenos Aires, Argentina

9 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

This is Buenos Aires' most adventurous day out — and it takes you well beyond the city limits. You'll combine two of the best ways to explore Argentina: cycling through elegant northern suburbs and kayaking deep into the Paraná Delta, one of the world's only river deltas without tides. The day ends with a traditional Argentine asado on a hidden island, surrounded by nature.

We start at Casa Castagnino in San Telmo and ride north through the city. Along the way, you choose: pedal the full distance or load the bikes onto a scenic train for part of the journey. Either way, you'll arrive at the Delta feeling like you've left the city far behind.

This is a private tour, fully adapted to your group. Your guide speaks English or Spanish, and Portuguese subject to availability. For those who'd like to pedal a little less and soak in a little more, eBikes are available at an extra charge — subject to availability, please request at time of booking.
