Tango’s magic lies in its diversity — and nowhere is that more palpable than in Buenos Aires. Join us for 10 days immersed in the full range of today’s tango: historic milongas and experimental ones, 10-piece orchestras with singers, barefoot guitar-and-bandoneón duos in the grass, Golden Age classics and bold new compositions.

🏨 Accommodation at the beautiful La Luna Lila Tango Hotel
💃 Six 1.5-hour workshops with world-renowned maestros, organized just for our group
🎶 All milongas & concerts — including live music events made possible by our tour
🚤 Group excursions, including a magical day of music, river, food and friends at Casa Azul in Tigre
📸 Professional photos to remember it all
✈️ Airport transfers, welcome & goodbye dinners
