She was energetic and knowledgable, ready to answer all of our questions about her beautiful city. The stories she shared were more fascinatinging than scary but we enjoyed them nonetheless.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I was lucky to be the only one on this tour., and this was my first time with Amazon Explore. My guide was warm and knowledgeable. She really made me feel immersed in the experience. I loved learning about the different kind of tunnels and the Subway. She was helpful informing me which tunnels I could explore and which ones were restricted for when I get to Buenos Aires later in 2022.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Although I signed up for a group tour, I ended up being the only one. This allowed for a lot of 1-on-1 time with the tour guide, who has an excellent grasp on the area's history. He showed me the history of a couple of different wars/coups, along with the history of public executions. I was particularly interested in the story of the woman who tried to run away from the city with a priest. They were caught and executed, despite the fact that she was pregnant at the time time.\n\nThere were a few technical difficulties, but my tour guide wasn't to blame. The city was loud with a lot of wind and the video quality varied throughout the tour. The guide's knowledge of the area made up for this, though."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My first "virtual tour." Thoroughly enjoyed enlightening and mildly creepy tour of the Plaza de Mayo, the heart of Buenos Aires, with charming Agustina. While describing the tourist sites and their history with pride and flair, she also helped me to understand the Agentinian society, economics, politics, religion, etc. by wisely responding to my comments and questions. !Muchas Gracias!\nThis "virtual tour" was well worth my time and money and, in some ways, even better than being in Bueno Aires. Next time, I will do some homework on the tour area before engaging in the video session to get more out it and ask fewer stupid questions. :) Enjoy!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'We really enjoyed this tour of Buenos Aires. We were lucky to have Agustina as our tour guide for this 45 min. session. She told us stories about ghosts and other legends. It was so entertaining! Agustina is so friendly and easy to talk to. It felt like we had a close friend leading this tour for us. The session flew by quickly and we highly recommend this tour, especially with Agustina.\nOn the technical side, we had excellent video / audio with no connection disruptions throughout. Thank you Agustina and team for this wonderful tour!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Nayla did an amazing job showing us all of the colonial buildings. I never realized how modern it was and how well preserved the buildings are. She took the time to answer all my questions, was easy to understand, and you can tell how much she loves her country, and I understand why. She was also very patient as we resolved some technical issues on our end. I highly recommend this tour!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My guide was great and while the spooky stories are not my main interest, they were fun and we got to see lot of the main buildings near the main square. This was a bargain and it was good to hear about the current state of things in Argentina and get a little insight into the economy and history.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Nayla is a superb guide! Very informative presentation and expertly answered questions. While the history is centuries old, there are new reminders in the plaza of more recent events - check out the base around the statue of General Manuel Belgrano & the symbolic white scarves painted on the square. Highly recommend!!!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I had a marvelous time visiting the heart of Buenos Aires and I learned even more about its history that maybe even some locals were not aware of :). Thank-you so much for this incredible experience.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "This was a very interesting experience. It's a beautiful square to begin with and the stories also share the history and development of the city. Agustina is a great host, very friendly and knowledgable. If you are concerned about gore, don't be. These are stories similar to what you'd hear of the paranormal and such anywhere else, but the ties to the history and location are what makes them unique."}]
