Where To Spend Valentine’s Day in Buenos Aires
What better place is there to spend the 14th of February than in the city that mixes old-world charm with Latin passion? Valentine’s Day in Buenos Aires, also known as San Valentín or Dia de los Enamorados, may not be widely celebrated by Argentines, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of romantic options for a special day.

It Takes Two To Tango…
Picture an evening of wine, gourmet food, and the most sizzling dance in the world … romantic, right? A tango show is the ultimate way to spend Valentine’s Day in Buenos Aires. Choose from a modern show like Madero Tango, in the ultra chic Puerto Madero, travel back in time at an authentic tango house like La Ventana, or go all out for an exclusive night at Rojo Tango.
If you’re looking for something a bit different, El Querandí is hosting a special Venetian Carnival themed show on the 14th of February, which promises to a be an evening of seduction and romance.

A Traditional Valentine’s Day Date
If you’re looking for a traditional night of romance, you can’t go wrong with a gourmet dinner, accompanied by Argentina’s finest wines. Head to one of Buenos Aires’s most romantic joints such as Florería Atlantico, hidden behind a flower shop. The combination of the scent of flowers and some of the city’s best cocktails is a recipe for an intimate evening of love. For all the best Valentine’s Day specials at restaurants around the city, check out Guia Oleo‘s guide to the special San Valentín menus.
On a budget? Take a stroll through some of the city’s most beautiful spots, such as the Japanese Gardens or the Palermo Parks. Then stop off at Compañia de Chocolates for some mouthwatering chocolate treats – the icing on the cake for your Valentine’s date!

Something A Little Different
Thinking more out of the box? Treat your other half with a truly special date that neither of you will forget anytime soon. Sail along the Río de la Plata and in the Tigre Delta with a Romantic Dinner Boat Cruise. Watch the sunset, sip on champagne and enjoy a three course meal. Alternatively, get a view from higher up with a Hot Air Balloon Ride. Go up at sunset, but be sure to tear your eyes away from your lover’s gaze to admire the panoramic views of the Argentine Pampas!
