Descripción del Tour:

The service kicks off by meeting at our offices in San Telmo.

Just a few blocks away, you’ll discover three remarkable graffiti/murals situated closely together. Throughout the tour, your guide will be available to answer questions and help capture photos of these vibrant murals. In San Telmo, you’ll encounter graffiti featuring Lionel Messi making the iconic "Topo Gigio" gesture, a mural of Diego Maradona with a soccer ball, and the player Ángel Di María celebrating a goal with his signature heart gesture.
After viewing the third mural, and having walked merely three blocks, a car will be ready to transport us to another celebrated graffiti spot in CABA: the world's largest mural of Diego Maradona. The same artist has also depicted Lionel Messi in another mural.
After capturing photos and exploring the San Telmo murals, we will drive towards Diego Maradona's childhood neighborhood: La Paternal. This area is rich in history, represented by the club Argentinos Juniors, whose stadium bears Diego Armando Maradona's name and is affectionately known as "The Seedbed of the World" for its reputation of nurturing exceptional players.
The entire perimeter of the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium is adorned with graffiti depicting him in various stages of life—childhood, youth, and adulthood. We will explore the exterior of the Stadium to delve into the history of someone long regarded as the world's best soccer player and conclude our neighborhood visit by heading to the first house Maradona owned after leaving Villa Fiorito.
Post our visit to La Paternal, the car will drive us to the vibrant neighborhood of Palermo. Despite its modern vibe, it's rich in significance, showcasing graffiti celebrating the 2022 Argentine National Team champions. Highlights include the crucial save by Emiliano "Dibu" Martínez in one of the final plays before penalties and a mural of Lionel Messi lifting the cup with the team. We'll also pass by a bar with its façade painted with the three captains of the World Champion National Team in 1978, 1986, and 2022: Daniel Passarella, Diego Maradona, and Lionel Messi.
To wrap up the tour, we will head to enjoy a snack at a café in Palermo (snack included) around 5 p.m.
