Tango et milonga

Très belle promenade à faire à Buenos Aires: le tango est l’une des choses les plus typiques de l’histoire de cette belle ville. Mon grand-père m'a toujours parlé des milongas de Buenos Aires et j'étais intriguée de savoir à quoi elles ressemblaient. Grâce à cette tournée, j'ai appris à connaître certaines d’entre elles et, grâce au guide, de nombreuses histoires. Merci beaucoup!!

Tango- und Milongatour

Sehr schöner Spaziergang in Buenos Aires: Der Tango ist eines der typischsten Dinge in der Geschichte dieser schönen Stadt. Mein Großvater erzählte mir immer von den Milongas in Buenos Aires, und ich war fasziniert zu wissen, wie sie waren. Bei dieser Tour habe ich einige von ihnen kennengelernt und dank des Reiseführers auch viele Geschichten. Vielen herzlichen Dank!
