A strong feeling that is danced-Milonga Tour

If you start going deep into Buenos Aires City, exploring its streets and less trodden areas you’ll find the traditional Milongas, places where the locals enjoy dancing Tango. Join us, experience and live this passionate cultural expression of Buenos Aires.


The origins of Tango Music are shared between Argentina and Uruguay in the Río de la Plata region. It was very popular at the beginning of the 20th Century. Nowadays travelers come to Buenos Aires looking for places to watch locals performing this great dancing style, and the right place to go are the Milongas.

There are only a few Milongas that keep the essence of the dance of the ’30s and 40’s decades, considered the Belle Époque of the Milongas. You will learn about codes and ceremonies that remain unchanged: the elegance in the way of walking around the dance floor or how to invite a lady to dance. Here the best “milongueros” dancers of the world shine. These are the Milongas we’ll be heading for.

Everything starts in the evening, away from the common tourist sites. During two and a half hours we’ll be visiting two milongas, learning the secrets of Tango, its wonderful dance and music. We can be part of the mystic around it, feel the atmosphere created by the dancers that go there every night. An experienced Tour Guide (also dancer) will fill us with some light-hearted updates and stories about famous Tangueros, while explaining all secrets about the dance and the codes used by the Tango Dancers along the night.

We invite you to join us. Come with us and take a piece of Buenos Aires back home. Gather stories, and live the experience that only a few dare to.

Wine tour with Lunch at Casa Vigil Experience

Enjoy a culinary proposal now included in the Michelin Voyage guide.


Located in Chachingo, Maipú, only half an hour away from the city of Mendoza, Casa Vigil has been rewarded with many different international recognitions, and it was distinguished not only for the great preparations you will find on its menu to pair its wines, but also for its originality and local art exhibit. “An attractive and atypical place”, is one of the reviews of the Michelin Voyage guide.

With so many good reviews, surely you´re curious and eager to see and taste for yourself what all this is about. This is definitely an experience that you can’t miss on your visit to Mendoza.

When in town, you will be picked up from your hotel and visit 2 important wine cellars that we will carefully choose for you, before the end of the experience in Casa Vigil, where you’ll visit the cellar where El Enemigo and El Gran Enemigo are made. Alejandro Vigil and his wife Maria live next door, so it is common that he can step in and say hello to all the people who attend the restaurant.   

Alejandro Vigil is one of the most prestigious winemakers in Argentina. He has been the main enologist and technical director at Catena Zapata Vineyards for a long time. A few years ago, he started working with Laura Catena and created his own brand, called Aleanna Winery, and introduced to the world his own creation: “El Enemigo”. From its very first impression, the name symbolizes the opposite to the other wine producers that want to join the idea of wine and friendship. However, the creative name given to this wine  “The Enemy” has conquered the market, and broke all the records on the most distinguished review magazines. 

He is passionate for the grapevines, the beautifully designed labels, the bottles, all done under his careful supervision. And the same passion is reflected in his own restaurant: Casa Vigil (formerly called El Enemigo), where his guests can savour exquisite local cuisine and its emblem wine.

The visit includes an exquisite gourmet lunch and of course, you won´t leave without tasting some of the house´s internationally prized wines, joined by one of the best wine experts in the world: the staff will guide you through a “Great Enemy” wine tasting experience.
