Notes:
» Final schedule and milongas will be adjusted slightly at the beginning of the trip once the local festival and milonga schedule is finalised by local organisers. Workshops are at 1pm to give you time to rest in the morning (as Milongas are often a late affair in Buenos Aires). No Activity is compulsory – if you need to rest, well… you rest :).

Free
time
We’ve kept some free time during your tango holidays, for a bit of respite, or simply to discover the amazing city of Buenos Aires. Here are a few things you might want to do during your free time:
• Sleeeeeep. Need I say more?
• Shopping. A trip to Buenos Aires and no shopping? Sounds like going to Paris and going to McDonald’s at every meal time.
• City exploration. Buenos Aires is truly amazing. Really. World class museum, event spaces, and a lot more. You may want to buy a copy of Lonely Planet’s city guide before going.
• More tango! Your package includes 4 tango classes of your choice from one of the best tango academies in Buenos Aires, which offers classes all day long, every day – up to you to decide which one you’d like to join.
August trip only:
Tango Festival’s free activities. The Festival includes plenty of amazing activites (all free of charge), ranging from concerts, conferences, to masterclasses, photo and video exhibitions, performances (tango and other dances), and milongas. It is truly the best tango event all around the world!
