A wonderful experience of food, history and culture
From the moment we met Natalia, our host and guide, we knew we were in store for a wonderful experience. A native of Buenos Aires, Natalia was super friendly, engaging and a fountain of knowledge of all things Argentina. Our tour of the Palermo district began by sampling delicious medialunas with cafe con leche at Lucio Pizza & Pasta (Yes, a pizza place that makes excellent pastries too! ). We then moved on to the beautiful botanical gardens, designed by Carlos Thays. We learned that Thays was a...read more

Hi LuluJRT,
Thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review.
I’m especially glad to hear how strongly Natalia resonated with you. She is not only a native of Buenos Aires, but someone who genuinely loves unpacking the layers of this city, from Carlos Thays’ vision for our green spaces to the immigrant stories embedded in Palermo’s streets.
Starting with medialunas at Lucio and then moving through the Botanical Garden is one of my favorite arcs of the tour. Thays shaped so much of Buenos Aires, yet many visitors walk through those spaces without realizing how intentional they were. Pairing that history with a proper bife de chorizo at El Pensador and ending with gelato tends to make the stories stick.
Thank you as well for mentioning the balance of trendiness and history in Palermo SoHo. Beneath the cafés and boutiques, there is a very real and complex past, and it means a lot that you appreciated both sides of it.
We would love to welcome you back anytime. There is always another layer of Buenos Aires waiting to be explored.
Warm regards,

Food tour with Asado adventures
We took a 3.5 food tour with Frank/Asado Adfenture today and we throughly enjoyed it. Besides food, we got a history and overview of the neighborhood.

Private half-day food, history, and culture tour
Wonderful food tour with Frank! He was gracious in planning a private half-day tour for our group. Communication up to and after the tour was outstanding. We learned so much about Palermo and Argentine history while eating some delicious classic dishes. Highly recommended!

Thank you so much for this kind review! It was a real pleasure planning your private tour and sharing not just the food, but the deeper stories that make Palermo and Argentine history so special. I'm especially glad you appreciated the communication—that's something we take seriously because we want your experience to feel seamless from start to finish.
Your group brought such great energy, curiosity, and good humor to the experience—it made guiding you an absolute joy. And hey, anyone who dives into alfajores, provoleta, empanadas, wine, steak, and history with equal enthusiasm is always welcome back!
Thanks again for the high recommendation. I hope our paths cross again sometime soon.
Warmest wishes from Buenos Aires.

Great way to spend an afternoon!
We didn’t have a lot of time in Buenos Aires and wanted to do something fun with the little time we had. This turned out to be a great experience! Every stop was delicious and just the right amount of food. We really enjoyed learning more about Buenos Aires and Palermo. Frank was an excellent guide. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for taking this tour with me and spending the afternoon eating, drinking, and chatting. I enjoyed showing you around my neighborhood and sharing not only its yummy food, but talking about history and street art as well. I hope you enjoy the rest of your Latin American trip.
