Disclaimer: We spent more than 5 days exploring Buenos Aires and explored some parts of the city not mentioned, but I have highlighted all the very best for a perfect BA experience. I have also rearranged a lot of what we did to fit, so you may have to reorder parts of the itinerary yourself to help with flow/timing. Enjoy!
