Unfortunately, it was drizzling and cold, but the staff let us in so we wouldn't have to endure the inclement weather. The service was excellent, they were very knowledgeable, and they created an atmosphere of excitement to go up and see everything from above. The view wasn’t crystal clear because of the rain, but it was still very beautiful. Thank you—we came back very happy that we’d done it and promised to do the same thing again, but during the day.

A truly unique experience that few Argentines have had! Everything was perfect: the guides were attentive, the tour was very well organized, the information was precise and detailed—a real treat! Don’t miss it! Tip: be sure to check out the photos they show you at the beginning; they’ll later give them to you in a folder with inserts containing information about the tour—a 10 out of 10!

It was a unique experience, especially since it has been open to the general public for the past six months—something that would have been unthinkable at first. The staff there are very friendly and explain things clearly.

Well organized, great service, and, above all, safe—we thought it was a bit pricey compared to the price on the official website, but other than that, we had a good time.

I loved the experience. Climbing the Obelisk isn’t just about reaching a viewpoint; it’s about conquering a symbol. Every step holds history, every pause builds anticipation, and once you reach the top, the city ceases to be mere noise and becomes a living landscape that breathes beneath your feet. Buenos Aires unfolds in every direction—immense, vibrant, almost infinite. Up there, you realize something: it’s not the height that’s striking, it’s the perspective. For a moment, everything seems to fall into place. Chaos becomes beauty; the ordinary becomes extraordinary. It’s not just a view. It’s an experience that changes the way you see the city… and perhaps, just a little, life itself.

Climb to the top of one of Buenos Aires' most iconic landmarks, which stands on the very site where the national flag was first raised in the city.

Timed entry to the observatory ensures you won't have to wait in long queues, giving you more room make the most of your day.

Ride the elevators up the 67.5-meter-tall tower for panoramic views of the city through the four east, west, north, and south-facing windows.

Spot landmarks like the Teatro Colón to the north, Avenida 9 de Julio, the world's widest avenue, and the Río de la Plata river on a clear day.

You can also choose between daytime and evening slots, giving you plenty of flexibility based on the rest of your itinerary.

A really great experience—we learned a little more about the city and had a wonderful time as a family. The girls who led the tour were excellent.

The only downside was the photo issue. I think they should ask people about the price and let them know so they don't end up spending a fortune on printing.

Features:

Panoramic views from the Obelisco: Climb the elevator to the iconic Obelisco in Buenos Aires' center for stunning panoramic views of the cityscape and beyond.

Introduction: Before you ride the elevator up to the top, you'll be given a brief 15-minute introduction to set the stage for your visit.

Choice of time slots: You can choose a daytime slot or an evening slot based on your schedule, giving you plenty of flexibility.

What to bring

Carry your valid ticket, either printed out or on your mobile, along with a valid ID for verification.

Bring a fully-charged smartphone or personal camera to capture the stunning views from the top of the observatory.

What's not allowed

Children under the age of four are not allowed to enter the Obelisco.

Drawing inscriptions or graffiti on the walls of the structure is strictly prohibited.

Accessibility

While an elevator will take you to the top, you will have to climb two flights of stairs at the end to reach the viewpoint.

As a result, this experience is not suited for wheelchair users or visitors with limited mobility.

Additional information

You'll be able to choose from three broad time slots during the day or the evening. However, the exact time for entry will be confirmed by the venue and will be mentioned on your ticket.

If you choose a 9am slot, you'll be given a time for entry at any point between 9am and 12pm, such as 9:15am or 10am. Entry to the site is allowed in 15-minute intervals.

You must arrive at least 20 minutes before the time mentioned on your ticket to ensure there are no delays whatsoever.

Your tickets are non-refundable, non-cancelable, and non-transferable.

Access to the viewpoint at the top may be restricted due to changes in weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

The elevators have a maximum capacity of four people, so the venue cannot guarantee that all members with the same reservation will be able to ride the elevator together.

Your voucher will be emailed to you shortly.

Display the voucher on your mobile phone with a valid photo ID at the starting point.

Please check your final voucher for the starting point details & specific instructions.
