Unlike any other building tour in Buenos Aires, the Palacio Barolo experience takes you on a symbolic journey through Dante’s Divine Comedy, brought to life through architecture, storytelling, and secret symbolism. It’s not just a visit—it’s a deep dive into art, history, literature, and Freemasonry, all woven into one unforgettable adventure. You’ll explore hidden gems like a preserved 1920s office and climb to one of the city's highest viewpoints for a breathtaking 360° view. With exclusive access to areas not open to the general public and guided insight that brings every detail to life, this is much more than a tour—it’s a story you’ll walk through.

    As you move through the building, your guide will reveal the hidden meanings behind its rich architecture, packed with symbols tied to literature, history, and Freemasonry. You'll ride the elevator through part of the building, but many of the most intriguing spaces are accessed on foot—via staircases that become narrower as you approach the top. Along the way, you’ll step inside a preserved 1920s office, a time capsule that lets you experience the era when the palace was first constructed. The highlight of the tour is the climb up the lighthouse tower. Though the stairs are steep and tight, the reward is unforgettable: a panoramic 360° view of Buenos Aires from nearly 100 meters above the city. From the open-air Mirador, you’ll see the skyline stretch from the historic center to the Río de la Plata. Whether you're a fan of architecture, literature, or just stunning city views, this experience offers something truly unique.
