Tuvimos un problema de comunicación entre Civitatis y quien ofreció el servicio. Manu, de quienes ofrecían el servicio, fue súper diligente y resolvió. Sara, quien nos dio la clase de tanto y acompañó a la milonga, excelente. Motiva a querer seguir aprendiendo tango. Realmente una buena experiencia para hacer pininos en el tango. Éxitos a Sara en todo lo que espera en tu carrera profesional Translate this opinion into English.

We had a communication issue between Civitatis and the service provider. Manu, from the service provider, was incredibly helpful and resolved it. Sara, who gave us the tango lesson and accompanied us to the milonga, was excellent. She inspires us to keep learning tango. It was truly a great experience for getting started in tango. We wish Sara all the best in her future endeavors. Opinion translated. Show original.

Una experiencia distinta, muy cercana. Manuel te explica cómo se siente el tango de una manera amena y divertida, fue genial! Y luego fuimos a una milonga que también estuvo muy bien! Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

Essa experiência foi a melhor que eu tive em Buenos Aires e uma das melhores da minha vida! O Tango é encantador, mas essa experiência nos permite não apenas apreciá-lo, mas também compreendê-lo, senti-lo. É uma experiência mágica e linda! Manuel é um professor excepcional. Tem uma didática e uma sensibilidade únicas. É um apaixonado pelo Tango e consegue nos transmitir toda essa paixão. Eu recomendo essa experiência a todos aqueles que queiram sentir a alma de Buenos Aires. Foi inesquecível!! Translate this opinion into English.

This experience was the best I had in Buenos Aires and one of the best in my life! Tango is enchanting, but this experience allows us not only to appreciate it, but also to understand it, to feel it. It's a magical and beautiful experience! Manuel is an exceptional teacher. It has a unique didactics and sensitivity. He is passionate about Tango and manages to transmit all this passion to us. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to feel the soul of Buenos Aires. It was unforgettable!! Opinion translated. Show original.

Un poco temerosa me apunte a esta actividad experiencia de tango en Buenos Aires, nada más lejos de lo que fue . Además de tener clase inédita para aprender a sentir y bailar el tango de una manera rápida pero especial.Manuel nuestro profesor nos impregnó de confianza y de nueva amistad rápida entre todos los que participamos en esta aventura. Ahora a seguir y hasta pronto Buenos Aires y a mis nuevos amigos tangueros. Translate this opinion into English.

A bit fearful, I signed up for this tango experience activity in Buenos Aires, nothing could be further from what it was. In addition to having an unprecedented class to learn to feel and dance the tango in a fast but special way. Manuel our teacher impregnated us with confidence and a new fast friendship among all of us who participated in this adventure. Now to continue and see you soon Buenos Aires and my new tango friends.

La mejor idea que tuve en mi estancia en la ciudad, ha sido reservar con ellos. Si te gusta el tango, Camila y su equipo te explican, te enseñan a sentirlo, y te llevan al corazón de Buenos Aires más auténtico. Un 10 a la actividad, ojalá pueda repetir. Translate this opinion into English.

The best idea I had during my stay in the city was to book with them. If you like tango, Camila and her team explain it to you, teach you how to feel it, and take you to the most authentic heart of Buenos Aires. A 10 to the activity, hopefully I can repeat. Opinion translated. Show original.

Toda a experiência foi maravilhosa. Manoel tem alma de artista, e um homem sensível, amante do tango. A forma como ele ensina a dança e inexplicável: é preciso viver para entender. Me preocupou ficar deslocada por ter ido sozinha, porém Manoel interage todo o grupo de forma muito natural. A Milonga a que fomos depois também foi encantadora Recomendo muito a experiência! Translate this opinion into English.

The whole experience was wonderful. Manoel has the soul of an artist, and he's a sensitive man, a lover of tango. The way he teaches the dance is inexplicable: you have to experience it to understand. I was worried about feeling out of place because I went alone, but Manoel interacts with the whole group in a very natural way. The Milonga we went to afterwards was also enchanting. I highly recommend the experience! Opinion translated. Show original.

Incrível! Manuel e sua parceira são muito divertidos e conseguem fazer com que a aula seja leve, mas certeira. Amamos a escolha do local para assistir a apresentação de tango, cheio de vida mas ao mesmo tempo casual. Recomendamos muito esta experiência! Translate this opinion into English.

Amazing! Manuel and his partner are very fun and manage to make the class lighthearted yet effective. We loved the choice of location to watch the tango performance, full of life but at the same time casual. We highly recommend this experience! Opinion translated. Show original.

A mí no me gustó mucho. Fuimos 5 de mi familia y a los otros 4 les encantó; quedaron fascinados. Así que, por mayoría, debo decir que es espectacular. Manuel es extraordinario: te enseña tus primeros pasos en el tango y su esencia. Me admiró tanta “ciencia” tras el rito del baile. Luego te lleva a un lugar donde solo hay gente que disfruta del tango y pasas allí una velada. El consumo va por tu cuenta. Lo negativo, para mí, es el costo: me parece excesivo para lo que ofrece la experiencia. Translate this opinion into English.

I didn't enjoy it very much. Five of us from my family went, but the other four loved it; they were fascinated. So, based on the majority opinion, I have to say it's spectacular. Manuel is extraordinary: he teaches you your first steps in tango and its essence. I was amazed by the sheer amount of "science" behind the dance ritual. Then he takes you to a place where only other tango enthusiasts gather, and you spend the evening there. Drinks are on you. The downside, for me, is the cost: it seems excessive for what the experience offers. Opinion translated. Show original.

El costo es muy elevado, pagué el doble por la cena y me salieron con dos empanadas que las consigues en 3.000 pesos, me pareció una vergüenza. Consigues shows muy económicos en cualquier teatro si te acercas y compras allí mismo. Conseguí uno a 20.000 pesos y fue bueno. Sin embargo la experiencia fue buena, conocer como la gente del común baila tango fue maravilloso, la forma como Manuel te explica todo es fascinante. Lo malo... El costo...

The cost is very high; I paid double for dinner and they served me two empanadas that you can get for 3,000 pesos. I thought it was outrageous. You can find very affordable shows at any theater if you go there and buy tickets. I got one for 20,000 pesos and it was good. However, the experience was good; seeing how ordinary people dance tango was wonderful, and the way Manuel explains everything is fascinating. The bad part... The cost...

The tango class was really enjoyable, I came in knowing the minimum about tango and manuel brought the group together and had us feeling the dancing first rather than learning any set steps. It was a really fun and educational session before we went to a local tango club for drinks later in the evening. The experience there was absolutely fantastic, seeing a tango community dancing together for several hours was magical, there was also a spectacular professional performance late in the evening.

Awesome experience! Saras was able to transfer her passion and guide is through the amazing experience. First the class was simple, to ease our experience. Then the milonga experience was a real dive into tango passionates, away from tourists shows. Thank you Saras!!!

This was just simply amazing. Our tutor, Saras was absolutely magnificent, with such an amazing vibe, and so much love and devotion for tango. It was a lot of fun to connect with other travellers, and get an inspiration by tango music and dance. After our tango lesson, we went to a real Argentinian milonga in a beautiful historical place in Buenos Aires. I strongly suggest to everybody to book the whole event (tango class and milonga). Thank you so much for this evening!

I had the extreme luck to get a private lesson with Manuel. He’s simply amazing and we had an incredible night. He knows how to really share his passion for dancing and make you feel part of his world. Plus it came with a lot of life advice which I’m so grateful for. Sincerely the best experience I’ve had in Buenos Aires.

The tango lessons were incredible and so fun. Manuel was an engaging instructor who took us through the basics of tango and progressed us enough to have real confidence in going to a milonga for the first time. It was great. We also got the dinner with the experience and it did not disappoint. Highly recommended!

Fue una linda manera de acercarse al tango con algunos pasos y sintiendo la música y después cerrando con una orquesta, música en vivo y viendo bailar tango de manera natural. Manuel todo un apasionado por el tango logra contagiar la emoción por este lindo baile. Esta plataforma ofrece experiencias en español, en nuestro grupo había muchos extranjeros y la explicación se dio en inglés creo q con la pasión de Manuel podríamos tener más información si pudiera expresarse en español. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a nice way to get closer to tango with some steps and feeling the music and then closing with an orchestra, live music and watching tango dancing naturally. Manuel, who is passionate about tango, manages to spread the emotion for this beautiful dance. This platform offers experiences in Spanish. In our group there were many foreigners and the explanation was given in English. I think that with Manuel's passion we could have more information if he could express himself in Spanish.

Fue la mejor experiencia que pude haber elegido, Manuel es una persona espectacular que ama el tango y te lo transmite en la enseñanza, esta actividad no es la tipica actividad de turista que vas a una milonga a ver un espectaculo, en esta experiencia la vives, y sientes el tango, escogio Manuel un buen lugar para llevarnos y fue de otro planeta, pudimos ver a los campeones de tango, el lugar fue acogedor.

Fue una experiencia increíble! Nos llevó a vivir el verdadero tango, a entenderlo, comenzar a bailarlo y sentirlo. Manuel el guía es EXCELENTE y ama el tango. Vale la pena hacer esta experiencia pienso yo más que cualquier otro show de tango para turistas que se ofrece en la ciudad, ya que en esta experiencia no eres un turista, sino una persona que comienza a saber y disfrutar del tango.

It was an incredible experience! It took us to live the true tango, to understand it, start dancing it and feel it. Manuel the guide is EXCELLENT and loves tango. I think this experience is worth doing more than any other tango show for tourists offered in the city, since in this experience you are not a tourist, but a person who is beginning to know and enjoy tango.
