AZluv Posted December 1, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2022 We had an amazing private excursion while on the Viking South America and Chilean Fjords cruise December 1- 18, 2022. We were on the Buenos Aires pre-cruise extension and on our full day there, we booked, via AsadoAdventure.com a 6 hour excursion of a charming neighborhood in Buenos Aires called Palermo Soho. Our host, Frank Almeida, arranged for a taxi, that dropped us at his beautiful home. Our small party of my husband, myself and a visitor from Canada got acquainted over chilled lemonade before we began our stroll over a few blocks of the neighborhood, admiring the street art and enjoying a cheese plate along with three local wines at a small, very cute wine shop. After Frank purchased several items for our meal, we returned to his home, where we enjoyed a traditional Argentine meal, in his tree and plant-lined patio. We felt like a member of his family! It was a perfect and relaxing way to experience Argentina! I highly recommend this private excursion! It made our day in Buenos Aires delightful as well as informative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare WNcruiser Posted December 3, 2022 #3 Share Posted December 3, 2022 This post would be better suited for the South America ports board as it is not Viking specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did Frank's Asado Adventure on our 2019-20 winter S.America cruise on Viking Jupiter. I don't believe you meant "2021". It was a fantastic time! Just like you describe. On a previous thread, I recommended this highly to a prospective Viking traveler. He tried to book Frank, but sadly, thanks to COVID, he has closed his business down, as the Viking traveler told to me. This was about a month ago.
