Timeline

  1. 14:00

    Lentas Maravillas

    Grab a table at Lentas Maravillas for 17:00 tea. The garden overlooks the river, making it a perfect spot to enjoy tartlets, muffins, and Illy coffee while the light is still bright.

  2. 14:45

    Dock

    Walk eight minutes to the Dock. Built in 1866, this historic port offers a place to relax on the water. It is the ideal spot to see the yachts and the northern part of the city as the afternoon stretches on.

  3. 15:15

    La Bodeguita

    End your walk five minutes away at La Bodeguita. If you want something lighter than the common asados, try to get a table at the lower patio to enjoy a view over the water and their excellent sangria.
