Guided Tour of San Miguel of Tucuman

Guided Tour of San Miguel of Tucuman

After picking you up from your hotel, we will head to Independence Square where our guided walking tour of the old town of San Miguel de Tucumán begins. Here, we will observe the majestic facade of the Government House: an impressive 20th-century building which has been declared a National Historic Monument. Our guide will tell you all about the fascinating story of its construction.

Still exploring Independence Square, we will admire another one of the emblematic buildings of the city, the beautiful Our Lady of the Incarnation Cathedral. The main entrance is located on 24 September Avenue, and after hearing why this date is so important in the history of Tucuman, we move on to the famous Historic House of Independence. This is where, on July 9, 1816, Argentina's declaration of Independence took place, igniting a series of consequences which we will reveal to you during our tour.

We will continue the route in Parque 9 de Julio park, where we will visit the Casa Obispo Colombres house, which today houses the Sugar Industry Museum. Our professional guide will tell you all about the origins of this important industry to the region.

The last stop of our tour will take place in picturesque Plaza Urquiza square, where you will observe the elegant façade of the San Martín Theatre. As we admire its beautiful exterior architecture, you will hear about some of the important show premieres which have taken place here.
