After many years of encouraging our students to travel to our beloved Buenos Aires, we heard many stories of people being a bit sceptical about travelling there alone.
Hence, we thoughtfully & carefully put together our first school trip to Argentina!
Years later, it has become the highlight of our year bringing a safe, fun & encouraging experience to our beloved students & dear friends!
We wholeheartedly aim to make each trip an unforgettable experience, sharing all of our most-loved restaurants, cafés, milongas, our favourite Tango hang-outs and best kept secrets of the city!
We can't wait to share another amazing trip with you filled with lots of great memories and great tango!

R E V I E W S 5* reviews of the trip
"Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for accepting me and making me part of your tango holiday family. The experience was so very special that I do not find the right words to express it. I am still on cloud nine!" - Rosemarie Erden (2019)
“Forgive the repetition, but thank you SO much for the past two weeks. I enjoyed myself enormously and it was just the most wonderful holiday in so many ways which I never expected to be quite so amazing.” - Carole Graham (2018)
“I couldn't have wished for better hosts - Maria and Leandro were amazing! Always smiling, always calm, patient & paying close attention to everyone. With their excellent network of contacts, they made sure we had the best time possible in BsAs” - Christine Williams (2017)
“I simply can't explain in words... Leandro & Maria are incredibly attentive to the details that make this trip special! They make sure everyone is having a great time and that the group is always receiving VIP treatment. 5 Stars all around! ” - Sabrina Saulle (2016)
“My first experience of Buenos Aires wasn't very good! I went with a girlfriend and it was a bit of a shock! It was difficult to get any dances and impossible to reserve tables at the milongas! After joining Leandro & Maria's group, we felt like royalty! They always had reserved tables for their group, even in the smallest/busiest milongas! But most importantly, their attention to detail, to each person, with so much heart and care... they are truly wonderful hosts and beautiful souls. Thank you!” - Julie Hart (2016)

Professional Dance Partners - Taxi Dancers
Book a professional dance partner for your classes & social dancing during your trip and get the most out of your dancing time and maximise your progress.
What exactly is a Professional Dance Partner, commonly known as a Taxi Dancer?
A professional dancer who will gracefully dance with you during the initial segment of a milonga, ensuring not only delightful dances but also catching the eye of locals for potential cabeceos.
In classes, we're all familiar with the occasional frustration of being paired with someone who struggles to grasp the lesson. However, with a professional dancer, the experience is quite the opposite. You not only derive maximum benefit from the class but also receive assistance from someone adept at both executing the moves and guiding you through the learning process!
How does it work?
Every class of the week(s) enjoy the thrill of having a dedicated professional dance partner assigned for you for the entire class.
At the evening milongas, you'll dance through every tanda in the first two hours, rotating seamlessly among our talented team of professional dancers, ensuring you get to dance with each of them throughout the night. It's a dynamic rhythm—four tandas in a row, a quick break for one tanda—keeping the excitement alive throughout the night!
