Buenos Aires City Tour, Tango Lessons
| Day 1: |
Your host will pick you up from the airport and transfer you to Becka Tango House (BTH). A welcome reception will be held with champagne and hors d'oeuvres so you will get a chance to get acquainted with everyone in the group. At 7pm you will meet our renowned tango instructors, for introductory Argentine tango lessons about the basics of the tango culture. If you are not too heavily jet-lagged and still have some fire in you, we can go to our first Milonga to get acquainted with the busy dance floors in Buenos Aires and dance the night away. If not you can go for a walk in a city that never sleeps followed by a night’s rest: you’ll need it for the next day! |
