A cold Sunday morning in September, Buenos Aires slowly wakes up to the smell of coffee and that unique sound of the Buenos Aires streets. The sun peeks out, and from that city icon, everything takes on a different perspective... beautiful, a must-see, magical. Don't miss it!!!!

It was a really wonderful experience; the staff was very attentive and knowledgeable. To start, they gave a brief and very clear overview of the history. All the way to the top, the staff was very friendly at all times. And don’t even get me started on the view!!! Truly majestic.

Something a bit different, where you can see the city from various vantage points, combined with a historical overview and an explanation of how the Obelisk was built, with two subway lines running right underneath it.

It was a really great experience. I wanted to give it 5 stars, but my finger slipped. I want to congratulate the cook on her historical insights and her kindness—we told her so. Thank you so much!!!

Hello, good morning!! My wife and I went. We're from Caba. We arrived early and took a short walk around the area. I usually go downtown for work, but very rarely just for a stroll. I’d always seen the Obelisk from the outside—this was my first time going inside, via the elevator. It was a really lovely experience: the guides, the view, the four windows. The view is incredible. I absolutely recommend it. We took a photo (which I also recommend) with the Obelisk in the background, and at the end they give you a very nice photo album. We had a great time. Thank you.

The tour was excellent! The entire tour was great, as it highlights the different stages from its construction to the events that have taken place over the years. Once at the top, the views of the city are fabulous—the city lights are incredible. Honestly, anyone who lives in this city—and anyone visiting it—shouldn’t miss this tour.

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)

These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

Perfectly precise Information about the obelisco before entering. Elevator needs exactly 60 seconds, then a few steps in a increasingly narrowing environment, fascinating. Enough time to enjoy the view from the four windows. Highly recommended!

Enter the Obelisk and ride to its highest point for sweeping city views, with daytime or evening entry windows.

Getting started

Select your preferred entry window. After you submit the required details, you will automatically be assigned a15‑minute slot, which will be mentioned in your ticket. Once you arrive at the venue at the 15-minute slot assigned to you, show your ticket with the QR code on it along with your ID, before proceeding with the introduction.

What to expect

Step inside Buenos Aires’ emblematic monument for striking city views from within. A brief introduction sets the context before you ascend to the panoramic viewpoint.

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.
