Stop At: Catedral Metropolitana, Calle Rivadavia s/n San Martin, Buenos Aires 1004 Argentina

See and discover Buenos Aires following the footsteps of the Pope.

We invite you to walk into his footsteps with us, going through different neighborhoods of the City to see it from the perspective of the Argentinian Pope. We'll start with the neighborhood of his childhood, where we'll visit the house he was born in, the house where he grow up and also the Basilica where he decided to become a priest. We will also visit the church where he was baptized, as well as other temples tied with Argentinian history and that of Pope Francis, to better understand the people of this vibrant City and thus the Pope. On our way to the most visited and miraculous Marian devotion in town, brought from Europe by Francis when he was just a Jesuit priest, we'll be able to see the last remaining penitentiary within the City, which still remembers the work Francis done there. Naturally, we will also visit the Cathedral of Buenos Aires, were Francis officiated as Archbishop for almost two decades before becoming the Pope, and will include plenty of other interesting places during our exploring, like his favorite hair salon in a historical gallery. By the end of the day not only will you know more about Pope Francis, but about this impressive southern Capital, its history and social and cultural developments.

This is a full day tour in order to better enjoy the experience, but naturally the tour can and will be tailored depending on your particular interests
