Buenos Aires Argentine Rock Tour

Tour Options

When booking the Argentine rock tour in Buenos Aires, you’ll be able to choose between 2 options. Both start at the Pertutti café in Plaza de Mayo, last 2 hours, and include an English-speaking guide specialized in Argentine music. Below are the details of each route:

Andrés Calamaro Tour

In this option, we’ll begin a route focused on Andrés Calamaro and the role Buenos Aires has played in his songs. Throughout the tour, we’ll visit locations featured in many of his tracks, where the city takes center stage.

We’ll explore Plaza de Mayo while listening to Señal que te he perdido, released in 1989. From there, we’ll head to Luna Park, a stadium that has hosted some of his concerts and inspired one of his many songs.

The next stop will take us to one of the singer’s favorite places: the house where poet José Hernández wrote Martín Fierro. We’ll also stop at Teatro Ópera, where Calamaro performed Costumbres argentinas for the first time.

Another key location in his life is the building where he spent his childhood, located on Avenida del Libertador. We’ll learn about his early years while listening to El palacio de las flores.

To finish, we’ll go to Plaza Francia, where Calamaro lived when he composed Honestidad Brutal, one of his most well-known albums.

Fito Páez Tour

If you’d like to discover Buenos Aires through the footsteps of Fito Páez, one of the most influential figures in Argentine rock, this is the ideal option. From the meeting point, we’ll walk toward Retiro train station, where Páez spent a night upon arriving in the capital.

We’ll continue to Luna Park, where he presented his famous album Giros, which brought him major recognition in Argentina.

Next, we’ll visit Casa Rosada, where you’ll better understand the meaning behind the song La casa desaparecida. With the music in mind, we’ll head to Teatro Gran Rex, where Páez presented Tercer mundo in 1990, an album that achieved gold status in Argentina.

We’ll continue through the city center to discover the bar La Paz, a key place connected to the song 11 y 6, one of his most iconic tracks.

Finally, we’ll explore Venezuela Street and learn about Páez’s deep connection to Buenos Aires and the cultural revolution the city experienced during the 1980s.
