Un buen tour!! Cinthia nuestra guía hizo muy ameno el recorrido con sus historias y gran conocimiento de diferentes temas. Creo que se pudiera mejorar si se agregara algún par de librerías más ya que se camina mucho y son pocas las librerías que se visitan. Pero en general por Cinthia se mejora la actividad. Translate this opinion into English.

A good tour!! Cinthia, our guide, made the tour very enjoyable with her stories and great knowledge of different topics. I think it could be improved by adding a couple more bookstores since there is a lot of walking and only a few bookstores to visit. But overall, Cinthia makes the activity better. Opinion translated.

Excelente experiencia, tanto si sos un ávido lector como no. La historia y detalles de cada lugar visitado o de camino, hermosamente contada por Cintia, junto con la caminata por emblemáticas calles y pasajes completan una experiencia que vale mucho hacer. El circuito y Cintia, espectaculares! Viviendo en Buenos Aires, pude ver cosas desde otra mirada. Hermoso. Gracias! Translate this opinion into English.

Gran experiencia! Gustavo condujo un recorrido maravilloso por las librerías a través de un hilo histórico, en una conversación encantadora sobre su relevancia para la historia de la ciudad y nacional. Ingresamos, siendo recibidos con amabilidad por los encargados. Tuve el privilegio de ser la única asistente, fue prácticamente un tour privado. Gustavo también fue explicando y mostrando lugares muy importantes del contexto histórico, como la teatros, cafés, etc. Muy recomendado. Translate this opinion into English.

Guia atenciosa e prestativa. O roteiro é pequeno, apenas 4 livrarias, mas foi preenchido com algumas informações sobre pontos turísticos do caminho. Uma das livrarias é especializada em livros antigos. Roteiro interessante se houver interesse em comprar livros ou conhecer alguns detalhes da história de Buenos Aires sobre outro ângulo.
