Fantastic Guided Tour of Buenos Aires
”We VERY much enjoyed our day tour of Buenos Aires with Ernesto Yattah! This is a Jewish history-themed tour, but we additionally learned much general history about Argentina and South America. Ernesto is engaging, entertaining, impressively learned, and a gifted teacher. His own experiences and family history add a unique personal dimension to the tour. Highly recommended!”
