Visiting the Obelisk of Buenos Aires was a truly special experience! Right from the start, the staff took wonderful care of me, and getting in was smooth, organized, and without any lines. I really enjoyed the detailed explanation of the monument's history, which made the visit even more interesting and helped me get to know this city icon much better. But the highlight was reaching the top and looking out over Buenos Aires through the windows, taking in views toward all four cardinal points: north, south, east, and west. Discovering the city from such a unique perspective and taking in all the details from high above was incredible. It was completely worth it and left me with wonderful memories!

A beautiful and unforgettable experience. The Obelisk is one of the most iconic landmarks in Buenos Aires, and visiting it in person has a special magic. Its imposing structure, the bustle of the city, and the wonderful energy of the people working there were amazing. I would definitely come back to live this experience again with all my children!!! Excellent service from the tour guides and photo staff, great price.

Even though the day was cloudy and rainy, the experience was excellent. The guides at each stop were super clear and friendly. At one point, I even got emotional thinking that I was up there, at the very top of a place I've looked at since I was little and that always intrigued me. Kudos! I'll definitely do it again on a clearer day.

A remarkable visit, great reception, and beautiful views from the obelisk's observation deck. I went with my son and granddaughter, who are from Córdoba, and they were thrilled. Highly recommended.

I never thought I could go up to the top of the Obelisk. I always saw it, but I never imagined being up there looking at Buenos Aires from the four windows. That's why, when I found out there was already an elevator and that you could go up, I didn't hesitate and started looking into tickets. The experience was wonderful, it met all my expectations. The service from the guides was very good; they are very friendly and attentive.

It was an exciting and very interesting experience. The introductory briefing was just the right length and had the right content. The elevator portion gave us a sense of security. Finally, the section with the stairs was accessible, even for me at over 75 years old. In conclusion, a highly recommended experience.

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.

Timed entry to the Obelisco

A 15-minute introduction to the observation deck

Daytime or evening entry window (as per option selected)

You can cancel these tickets up to 48 hours before the experience begins and get a full refund.
