Day-by-day shape

With 4-6 days, group sights by area so you are not crossing the city each morning. Start in Microcentro, give a full day to Palermo, and reserve time for Recoleta Cemetery.

Pacing

Keep one major sight per half day. Check official opening times so you do not arrive at a closed door, and leave buffer for meals and transfers.

Build your own

Use the stay areas and transport pages to set the order. Recheck timed entries the week before you travel, since operators adjust schedules by season.

Frequently asked questions

  • Is 4-6 days enough for Buenos Aires?

    4-6 days covers the core sights if you group them by area. Add a day if you want slower mornings or a day trip outside the city.

  • How should I order the days?

    Anchor each day on one neighbourhood: Microcentro first, then Palermo. Keep Recoleta Cemetery on a day with light walking afterwards.
