Experience Buenos Aires through the eyes of an Argentine

  I had the pleasure of joining a tour with Joy and had such a good time while learning about the city and its history. Joy has so much passion and... read more enthusiasm and this shines through during her tour making it a fantastic experience.

She always has interesting facts or stories to share, and has great tips for the rest of your stay. She showed me a great wine bar and also introduced me to the best empanadas in Buenos Aires! I'm still grateful!

Thanks so much for the great experience joy!

  Joy is one of the best tour guides I know! She is very professional, fun and personable. She has a wide range of knowledge and insights about the city and... read more I learned so much during her tours. Also, she offers so much insights even after the tours, such as local tips around the city.
I also love the social gatherings she put together. She knows the best places to go to in town and it’s always nice to meet other travelers through these gatherings. Highly recommended!!

  Joy gave us a wonderful private tour with a combination of a private driver and walking. She was very enthusiastic in providing us history of Buenos Aires and taking us... read more to some major sights of the city. Her tour is a good way to start your time in Buenos Aires, particularly if you are a first time visitor. I would not hesitate to recommend her!

  Argentina was a last minute trip and spending time in Buenos Aires didn't become an option until the day before my flight. I didn't want to waste my one day... read more I had to explore B.A., so I took a chance on a tour guide recommendation from a FB group.

Upon landing I reached out to Joy. She was quick to respond and listened to my interests in order to build a customized itinerary. Joy talked me through the safest transportation options at the airport and met me at my accommodation in a matter of a couple hrs.

I chose a whole day walking tour. No regrets. Joy has a high level knowledge of the history, architecture, culture, art music,language and food of Argentina. We visited all the main attractions, along with things most tourists may not know about.

As our day was coming to an end, so did the sun and clear skies. We got caught in the rain. My umbrella could not withstand the wind. Joy was so gracious to lend me hers as she tried to avoid becoming drenched herself in arain jacket.

I would HIGHLY recommend Joy. Even after the tour,she continued to help me with setting up Covid test for my flight home. She has endless recommendations for not only B.A. but other regions in Argentina. I could not have asked for a better certified guide to help me fall in love Argentina.

  In December we had the luck to be on a tour with Joy
I think she is an absolutely amazing guide that just enjoys doing what she does ... read more

I can definitely recommend Joy if you wanna see Buenos Aires with a tour that can be customized according to your wishes or totally tailor made

Overall we saw so much that I feel we did all the main things of Buenos Aires in just one day
Still we got time to put some gift shopping in and also to eat a tasty chorizo

Joy is very knowledgeable and can give you information to buildings, people, history or just on which dulce the leche to buy as a gift

I also liked that she did not try to push her opinion onto us I felt throughout the tour that she tried to stay very objective

If she has a flaw then only that she will tell you that ghost do not exist and therefore the cemetery is not hunted when of corse it clearly is

But honestly thank you Joy for the amazing and funny time I spend with you, the informative tour you gave us and the great experience and adventure we shared

  THE JOY of Buenos Aires!!! Joy is an exceptional tour guide who has a passion for her work. When you are taking a trip with Joy, you are getting a... read more truly authentic experience. I have been on a 4 tours with her (with the initial intention of booking 1) and taking a tour with Joy is honestly like walking through history! You truly get the feeling of what it means to be an Argentinian, and Joy does a phenomenal job of conveying a holistic perspective of both the culture and rich history of Buenos Aires!

As far as traveling through both Buenos Aires and Argentina, Joy helped my group plan trips to the historic downtown, Recoleta Cemetery, Tigre, The Iguazu Falls, and Patagonia! - She was even able to connect us with tour guides in Patagonia and assist in booking travel! She truly goes ABOVE AND BEYOND! - ** I know safety may be a concern when traveling to Argentina, however Joy's first priority is to ensure that everything you do and every trip planned is done with your safety as a first priority.

I really can't say enough about Joy, as what she has provided, as well as her enthusiasm for her work has made my stay in Argentina a truly memorable experience! When you meet her, you will understand that this is truly important to her and she will make you fall in love with the country!
