They say Cristina is rarely seen there, you can even check where her helicopter is supposed to land every other Monday when she goes to work. The tours are good and not expensive. More

Even if you can't get in as there's a sorrounding fence, the building has been recently repainted and it's part of Argentina history. More

Located at the Plaza de Mayo, this magnificient building is the executive office of the President of Argentina. It is open to public on saturdays and sundays. They run free guided tours from 10am to 5pm, each tour taking about an hour. The tours are conducted in Spanish and the guides later summarise what they said in English. They take... More

Although it opens only on saturdays, sundays and holidays, this is a very good place to visit. They offer free entrance and free guided tours, and the tours are very good. You will be able to see the press conf room, the presidential office, etc.. More

An absolute "must visit", as the central theme of the bad old days, of the military juntas, and their parades! Fabulous building, and you are allowed inside, into the 1st couple of galleries where are hung many famous Argentinian born generals, presidents, and fighters, such as even Che Guevara!! More

The guided tour starts almost every 15 minutes when staff manage to make a group big enough to run the tour. It is interesting to learn a bit more about Argentina's history. The guide was very good, speaking in Spanish and in English. And it was free of charge. More

The House is open only on the weekends, and it takes about an hour to do the visit. It is a nice house but it is in poor conditions and is not impressive at all. I would only recommend a visit if you are in Buenos Aires for more than 3 days, if not don't waste your time. More
