About This Tour

A private full day combining Buenos Aires' top city sights with a real escape north to Tigre, where you'll board a boat to explore the delta's rivers and islands. A genuine two-in-one day: the city's downtown landmarks in the morning, then a drive north to Tigre for a boat trip through the delta's channels, away from the crowds of the capital.

Tigre takes its name from the jaguars — tigres in the old regional Spanish — that were still being hunted along these riverbanks when the settlement was founded in 1820, after floods had wiped out earlier attempts to settle the area, then known as the Partido de las Conchas. For much of the 19th century it was a working river town rather than a destination: early residents fished, hunted, and gathered small palm coconuts, and in colonial times the area supplied Buenos Aires with firewood and charcoal brought down the river.

Tigre's economy later shifted to fruit — the Delta's islands were planted with citrus and other orchards shipped into the old Puerto de Frutos, the fruit port that survives today as a riverside crafts and antiques market rather than a working dock (a major flood in 1940 ruined most of the orchards, and the fruit trade never fully recovered). The town's other defining feature arrived from a different direction entirely: in 1873, President Sarmiento attended the first organized regatta on the river, and the event drew enough interest that rowing clubs — many founded by Buenos Aires' English, Italian, and other immigrant communities, importing racing sculls from England and Switzerland — relocated to Tigre's waterways, where their clubhouses still line the riverbank today.

The Paraná Delta itself, which the boat portion of this tour explores, is still actively forming: the river deposits an estimated 200 million tons of sediment into the delta every year, and that sediment is what the Delta's reeds, ceibos, and other wetland plants anchor into new islands over time. It's a genuinely rich wetland rather than just scenery — researchers have recorded more than 700 plant species and roughly 260 bird species across the delta, making it one of the more biodiverse freshwater systems found this close to a major capital city.
