The journey, in full
After you get picked up at your central hotel in Buenos Aires, we will go all over 56 kilometers through the La Plata-Buenos Aires route in a comfortable and air conditioned bus. During our trip to La Plata, we will have a beautiful view of the river with the same name, while our guide explains to us the history and central square´s foundation. Once we arrive there, we will visit the neogotic cathedral considered as one of the biggest in the world. It was built in 1932 and inspired by the famous europeans cathedrals. We will walk through the city diagonals and you will notice the perfect geometric form it has. Also, we will visit the Astronomical Observatory and Argentine Theater while our guide explains us the process and who built it. Then, we will go to the Natural Science Museum, one of the most important museums in South America. It has more than 2 millions of objects and specimens; it is a big Paleontologic, Antropologic, Geologic, Botanic and Zoology centre (Didactic and educational museum of argentine historic species). You will know better the argentinian region and the weather (sea, mountains, Patagonia, etc). It made possible the good conservation of a lot of dinosaur fossils. Once we finish the visit, we will get into the bus to go back to Buenos Aires Centre.
