4.Señor Tango Show with Optional Dinner in Buenos Aires

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 177 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $65

Head to Barracas for Señor Tango, Fernando Soler’s grand, Vegas-style production in a former general store. Expect around 40 dancers, live musicians, singers, visual effects, Argentine folk dance, live horses, and a dramatic tango story. Add a three-course dinner, wine, and downtown hotel transfers if you want an easier night.

“The show is excellent, but the dinner was a terrible experience. They only offer a small glass of wine, but the ticket says that we would have a half of a bottle per person, and I had to ask many times to have a Coke Zero. The food and the desert weren’t good also. I don’t recommend buying the ticket including the dinner.”

Señor Tango is a large Buenos Aires stage production with professional tango dancers, singers, live music, aerial acts, and horses.

Expect about two to three hours at Vieytes 1655, with a dramatic style closer to a full theater spectacle than a quiet tango club.

“We thought we were going to see a tango show… but it’s really more like a tango show that got sent to Vegas and completely forgot it was a tango show. Perhaps if we were local then we would have appreciated half the show being about the host …”

I was looking forward to the yeast rolls from April but apparently to save a penny the restaurant switched to cheap baguettes. Also, the tour operator didnt provide the correct address. Ubered all over town to find the place. Length of show was considerably shorter in January”
