I haven't been but my friend claims claims this is one of the best Italian restaurants he's ever been (the owner and chef is from northern Italy). The tables are arranged on descending terraces, which give everyone a little more privacy (candlelight adds to the atmosphere). The seafood platters are particularly scrumptious and the pasta is made fresh daily.
Great place to stay at not too bad a price for the area. The rooms were clean, quiet, and up to date. There are some nice views of the city. It's located a short from the Magnificent Mile and plenty of great restaurants and taverns. There is a terrace on the 17th floor where you can take in the views and go for a swim on the indoor pool. Kind of all around "meh" - not too memorable.
There are so many good cafés in Buenos Aires and old-school traditional ones to choose from, I wouldn't go here just because it's famous. It will be filled with tourists and not feel as authentic as if you go somewhere else that will be very similar but less well-known.
This is one of the more popular cenotes in the area and a perfect combo for Chicen Itza - go to the ruins first though so you can cool off with a swim in the cenote afterwards. If you have a chance, it's cool to go to some of the smaller, less popular cenotes because you share with fewer people, but Ik Kil is definitely worth visiting if you're nearby.
Stunning to see such a famous place in real life! I recommend going and walking around in the afternoon and staying to see the sunset, but also definitely take the ferry (I recommend to Bondi) so you can see the whole Harbour from the boat.
One of my favorite days spent around Sydney. The ferry ride to Bondi is great, the walk along the coast is beautiful and the town itself is such a cool little getaway from Sydney. Perfect day-trip if you're looking to explore a laid-back little town.
Pretty cool! Loads of animals that are very cool to see, when I was there 2 tortoises that were each over 100 years old. You also get to feed some kangaroos and you can hold and pet Koala bears (they leave your hands smelling like eucalyptus). Worth a visit if you have a few days to spare around Brisbane.
Totally worth visiting and taking a guided tour of the glacier. You'll spend all day up there, they provide all the gear you need, and you'll come down cold, wet and exhausted but it's one of the most unique experiences I've had. Be aware too that whatever you bring with you (ex. cameras) should be in a pretty well-sealed bag as it'll get wet otherwise. You squeeze through lots of tight spaces rubbing right up against the ice but definitely do bring a camera because loads of cool shots to be had.
Pretty touristy but very much worth a visit. Watch your pockets and your purse because there's a lot of pick-pocketing around here. It's super colorful and vibrant, street artists trying to rip you off everywhere and tango dancers in the street wanting a buck for a photo. I wouldn't spend more than an hour or two walking around and taking it in. 'Caminito' is the super famous, very colorful street that you'll likely want to visit as the rest of the neighborhood is pretty gritty and can be a little dangerous. If you're there after dark definitely take a taxi to and from rather than a bus or the metro.
I don't think anyone would go to Buenos Aires and not visit Recoleta Cemetery. It's very cool, somewhat cryptic as you can probably imagine but super unique. Former presidents, military generals, artists and, most famously, Eva Perón, are buried here in incredible mausoleums of stone and bronze. There are more than 6400 tombs in this city of the dead, densely packed against one another. Definitely on my Buenos Aires short-list.
