Introduction: Buenos Aires Puerto Madero & La Boca

We will take the metro until the port, pass the bus terminal, and arrived in the port. Also called “Puerto Madero”, this place is perfect for a walk during the day, and one of the most famous spots for dinner at night. Also, lots of huge company such as google have their office there.

On the edge of the port, there is the Ecological reserve Costanera Sur, a great place to walk surrounded by nature.

Later on, we will walk south toward the lively neighbourhood of La Boca, where a huge stadium is located and one of the most famous streets in town, Caminito.

Mapping the day

Puerto Madero

The Port of Buenos Aires

We went during the day around the port and we really enjoyed it. In the morning it’s realy quiet and perfect to walk around. The industrial architecture is just stunning.

Reserva Ecológica Costanera Sur

Perfect for a few hour walk. It’s worth first walking along it on the main sideway before circling in it. We did it with the city bicyle as a booth is located next to the entrance, we also did some overtime with them but it was fine.

La Boca

Stadium

On our way to Caminito street, we passed by the La Boa stadium and training center. We had met Argentinian earlier and they all said that if someone ask you which football team you are for, answer LA BOCA.

Caminito

And to finish the day, we hanged around the famous CAMINITO, a colorful street with lots of shops and restaurants. The street is worth seeing but is mostly a touristic place not really authentic. 

Even though, the architecture is amazing and lots of statue are on the building.

Within the small street, we found a really coold coffee shop that was also a dulce de leche store. There we enjoyed a coffee, sweets and tasted Ducle de Leche.

“See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. Ask for no guarantees, ask for no security.”
